Schedule Service!

Hill Country Acreage Between Gruene and Canyon Lake
River Chase is one of those New Braunfels neighborhoods that feels like the country: one- and two-acre lots, rolling hills, mature trees, and private homeowner parks along the Guadalupe River. Many homes here were custom-built over the years, so no two backyards or equipment pads look quite the same.
That variety is exactly why steady care matters. Some River Chase pools are a few years old, others have been running for decades on equipment that still has life in it. We keep both kinds clean, balanced, and running, and we give you straight answers when something needs attention.
From weekly pool cleaning to honest pool repair, River Chase gets the same technician on the same day every week.

What Makes River Chase Pools Different
Trees are the big one. Live oaks, cedar, and other hardwoods shade a lot of River Chase backyards, which is great in July and tough on skimmers and filters the rest of the year. Leaves that sink and sit can stain plaster.
The hills matter too. Storms push dirt and debris into pools on sloped lots, and long runs from the house to the equipment pad mean pumps work harder.
And the water is hard, so calcium builds on tile and salt cells without steady chemistry. Our weekly service handles all three, with a photo report after every visit.
The Pool Problems We Fix Most in River Chase
The calls that fill our River Chase route, and how we handle each one.
Oak and Cedar Debris in the Skimmer
Live oaks drop leaves every spring and cedar sheds all year, and both pile into baskets fast. Weekly skimming and basket cleaning keep debris from sinking, staining, and clogging lines.
Big Lots, Big Debris Loads
Acreage lots mean more trees, more wind, and more debris landing in the pool. Our Full Service plan handles the extra load every week so it never piles up on you.
Mud and Debris After Hill Country Storms
Heavy Texas storms wash dirt, leaves, and silt into pools in a hurry. We clear it out, rebalance, and clean the filter so the water clears fast instead of turning.
Scale Creeping Along the Waterline
Hard Texas water leaves its calcium mark on tile here like everywhere in the region. Our Pool Tile Cleaning strips the buildup properly, and balanced weekly chemistry slows how fast it comes back through the hot months.
Older Equipment That Still Has Life
Plenty of pools here run equipment other companies only quote to replace. We repair what deserves repairing and show you plainly when something is truly done.
Pumps Working Overtime
Big pools and long run times wear pumps down. We repair what is worth repairing and, when it is time, install variable-speed pumps that run quieter and cut the electric bill.
Green Water After a Trip
A week of Texas heat with nobody checking chemistry is all it takes. Our Green to Clean service brings the water back fast, and steady weekly care keeps it from happening again.
Heaters and Spas for Cool Evenings
Texas winters are short but chilly, and a heater that will not fire always picks the worst night. We repair gas heaters and heat pumps and keep attached spas clean and balanced.
Our Pool Services in River Chase, TX
The whole menu, one accountable crew, every single week.

Living with Big Trees Around Your River Chase Pool
Empty baskets often. In leaf season, a full skimmer basket can choke the pump in a few days. Weekly service keeps baskets clear, and a quick check between visits helps.
Don’t let leaves sit. Leaves on the floor release natural dyes that leave brown stains. Weekly brushing and vacuuming keep them moving out.
Clean the filter on schedule. Tree-heavy pools load filters fast. A clean filter is the cheapest way to keep water clear and pressure normal.
Fix stains properly. If years of leaves have marked the plaster, an acid wash can bring the surface back. After that, weekly service keeps it looking that way.
Pool Service Plans Built for River Chase Pools
Not every pool needs the same thing, so we keep it simple with two recurring plans. Pick the one that matches your trees and your patience, and we take care of the rest.
Full Service Plan
The whole load carried weekly: chemistry, skimming, brushing, vacuuming, baskets, and an equipment inspection every visit. For busy households and anyone who would rather just swim, this is the plan most River Chase owners pick.
Chemical Only Plan
Professional water balancing while you run the net and brush yourself. Premium chemicals, basket emptying, and equipment checks. It suits hands-on owners with lighter debris and a bit of free time.
Torn between the two? With the trees and lot sizes in River Chase, most owners pick Full Service, but tell us about your yard and we’ll be straight about which fits, including when the cheaper option is honestly the right one.

Pool Service in River Chase, TX: Frequently Asked Questions
Here are the questions River Chase pool owners ask us most. If you don’t see yours, we’re a phone call away.
It depends on your pool's size, condition, equipment, and how much debris your yard throws at it. We quote every River Chase pool individually. Call (830) 362-0654 and you'll have a straight number, usually the same day.
Yes. Weekly skimming, basket cleaning, brushing, and vacuuming keep leaves from piling up and staining. In heavy drop season we keep an extra eye on the filter and pump.
Usually leaves that sat on the bottom and released natural dyes into the plaster. Light stains often fade with treatment and brushing. Older, set-in stains may need an acid wash.
Long plumbing runs make pumps work harder, and a loud pump is often a worn bearing or a clog. We'll check it and tell you honestly whether it needs a repair or a replacement.
Gladly. We repair what deserves repairing, from pumps to filters to heaters, and when something is genuinely done, we show you why and price the options plainly.
Our green to clean recovery typically has water swimmable within a few days depending on severity. We shock, brush, filter hard, and clean the filter as the algae dies. Ongoing weekly service keeps it from turning again.
That's calcium scale from our hard Texas water. It builds every time water evaporates and leaves minerals behind. Our Pool Tile Cleaning removes it without damaging the tile, and balanced weekly chemistry slows how fast it returns.
Yes. We repair gas heaters and heat pumps and keep attached spas clean and balanced. If a repair isn't worth it, we'll say so and price the options plainly.
No. Gate access is all we need, and every visit ends with a photo report. If you're home, we're glad to say hello. If you're not, the pool gets the same treatment.
