    POTENTIAL ADDITIONS TO OUR STANDARD OPENING RATE:

    • $210.00 per hour billed for time pumping water off cover.
    • Any pools over 30 miles from either of our stores will be billed at the rate of $2.00 per mile for travel (after 30 miles).
    • Note that all chemicals and accessories used on opening services will be added to the bill.
    • Any repair work found at pool openings will be performed at the discretion of our schedule and is not included in the pool opening cost. You will be billed for the minimum $210.00 per hour rate for time spent repairing - even if the pool isn’t opened, plus mileage if out of our service area. Note that repairs and/or opening may have to be re-scheduled for another day.

    Depending on the condition of the pool, cleanup may require multiple trips as debris settles. If you desire us to do this following your pool opening, call the West Plains office at (417) 257-7665 or the Mountain Home office at (870) 232-0019. This work will be billed $125.00 per trip plus chemicals, and travel costs at the rate of $2.00 per mile (over 30 miles) if you are located out of our service area.

    Note that we also offer standard pool cleaning services. We will schedule these trips for when we will be in your area ONLY. Please let us know within 24 hours of opening if you would like to schedule an additional cleaning.

    CUSTOMER’S RESPONSIBILITIES PRIOR TO OPENING DATE:

    • For inground pool openings to be completed fully on day of service and to avoid additional return
      trips and fees, water level must be to middle of skimmer or above the day of scheduled pool opening.
    • Typically, above ground pools cannot have water added due to disconnected equipment. The
      customer will need to add water and chemicals following our opening.
    • Debris must be removed off the cover, and water removed off solid tarps and auto covers
    • Note that we are not responsible for debris that falls from the cover into the pool if the debris
      isn’t removed beforehand. Electric power must be turned on and water with hose are available.
    • All parts needed (eyeballs, jets, diving board, handrails, ladders, storage bag for cover, etc.), need to
      be set out within 10 feet of the pool deck. If not, you will be billed for any return trips or parts used.
    • Pool and equipment must be accessible and major debris and animal droppings removed. If Auto
      Covers will not open, we will not force them, and repair/service must be scheduled for a later date.
      We also offer routine service packages for the entire pool season if you would like hassle free pool
      maintenance! We also offer free water testing in either of our stores.
