"I hired Karl over a year ago and the customer service and maintenance on my pool was great Iâ m not sure exactly what has changed but he just stopped coming. No conversation or explanation given. I learned he was no longer coming when my pool turned green and there was no response to any outreach I attempted. I thought at first something very serious must have happened and he was unable to reply but I have since learned heâ s still serving other pools in the area. The cost to address my green pool with another company could have completely been avoided. Iâ m disappointed in the way this was handled and am still at a loss on the why."

We never leave a job unfinished, or a homeowner not 100% satisfied with our level of service. We handle pool work in Austin and the surrounding areas. Call today!
"I hired Monarch to maintain my pool starting Jan 1, 2024. In March I emptied my 8900 gallon pool and acid washed it. A month later I had black algae in my fountain. This remained for weeks. Sean finally told me to call someone else to get rid of it. The calcium level two months after refilling my pool with fresh water was 201ppm. In August Sean tested my pool. This was the result according to a test he sent me: For calcium, I got 1025, but I am not sure how accurate that is. When I ask more about it, he had no explanation. Another time he cleaned my filter and forgot to connect the hose. Another time he turned off the valve that runs my fountain, When I called he told me he had no idea what the problem was. The fiasco led to replacing a $500 valve when he was the one who wrongly turned it off . The final straw was he cleaned my pool filter (less than a year old filter). And it was so saturated with shock that it ruined the filter. in addition, when he took the filter out, he broke the filter core and lef the broken base wedged in the unit. My concern is that he NEVER took responsibility for his mistakes or any of the damage he caused. As a result Ihad to replace over $900 worth of items. He also has a picture on his web site of my pool which I have asked him to remove. I would NOT recommend his services."

"Very quick to respond. Great work and very friendly. Would use again. Only issue if any was communication on when the rep was coming out. He came out to give estimate, then do the repair. We weren’t notified either time when he was coming out. It ended up working out ok as my wife ended up being home, but she almost wasn’t. Just would have liked a text or call with an estimated time and date of show time."

To maintain crystal-clear water and prolong your pool's lifespan, establish a regular cleaning schedule. Skim the pool for debris and clean the wall tiles every week. Test the pH level every week or every other week to maintain a balanced level of 7. Additionally, vacuum the pool, inspect the equipment, empty the pump baskets, and check the filters every month. Following this routine helps protect your pool’s surface and maintains a consistently healthy swimming environment.
If you've added too much chlorine to your pool, it's important to act quickly. Expose the water to direct sunlight to help break down the excess chlorine, heat the water to accelerate the chemical reaction, and add fresh water to dilute the concentration. You can also apply a chlorine-neutralizing product to bring the chlorine level back to the safe range. These actions maintain water quality and protect both your pool surfaces and swimmers.
One of the easiest ways to save on pool maintenance is to start completing some regular pool maintenance tasks yourself. While more serious repairs should be left to the professionals, routine tasks like skimming your pool to remove debris or checking the pH are tasks that can be accomplished on your own.
The lifespan of your pool is determined by its construction and materials. In-ground concrete pools offer a lifespan of 50 years. Fiberglass pools deliver over 30 years of service. Vinyl-lined pools have a 20-year lifespan with a required liner replacement every six to 12 years. Above-ground pools typically offer a lifespan of eight to 15 years.
It’s best practice to drain and refill the pool every three to five years to maintain the water's purity and flush out accumulated solids. Avoid draining the pool completely, as this can damage the structure. If you're not experienced in pool drainage, it's best to have a pool professional handle the process to protect both your pool and its surroundings.
