  • 5 Tips to Help You Get Your Pool Ready for Summer 2023

    The weather as of late has been spectacular and it appears that the cold weather is behind us. As a matter of fact, we can almost be assured that we have had the last freeze of winter 2022/2023.

  • Water Your Yard to Prevent Damage to Your Pool

    We had a fairly mild and wet first six months of 2026, but the last few weeks have been very hot and dry. This type of weather can impact pools in the north Texas area, and we all need to be aware of it. This area tends to have pockets of fairly expansive soil—soil that contracts when is gets dry and expands when it gets wet.

Whatever is in contact with the soil during this time of contraction and expansion also experiences movement.
