DIY Tips

If the days of enjoying your pool are long gone thanks to crumbling coping, faulty equipment and an ageing interior, then it’s time to think about a makeover – especially with the warmer months looming on the horizon. Breathing new life into your poolscape can be as simple as replacing old waterline tiles, or extensive as draining the water and starting with a clean slate.

You know the saying – fail to prepare, prepare to fail. The saying is very applicable to many areas of life. One of these is the general maintenance of our home, as you can’t just float along expecting all parts of your home to take care of themselves.

None of us want summer to end – we all love relaxing in the sunshine with friends and family, especially if it involves splashing about in the backyard pool with some yummy food and drinks nearby.

While it’s easy to forget about the media inside the filter when you have your hands full performing maintenance on the rest of the pool, it’s time to create a regular routine that includes this vital piece of equipment.

If unsightly stains are the one thing standing in the way of your pool looking its best, then we have a solution here for you!

We all know what the effects of sun damage are on the human body-but did you know that the sun can also wreak havoc on your pool’s water balance and chemistry? UV rays break down the chlorine and other chemicals in your pool that are keeping it healthy to swim in.

Summer is finally on its way! While pool owners all over the nation rejoice that they can soon enjoy increased sunshine and daylight hours around their pool, you may also be wary of the potential problems this change in temperature can cause.

Winter is over at last so get out your swimmers, it’s the swim season again! However, some of us may have let maintenance fall by the wayside during the cooler months, which can mean the pool water isn’t as clean and healthy as it needs to be.
