Dallas doesn’t hand pool compliance to the county — the city’s Code Compliance department runs its own commercial pool program, and roughly 900 apartment and condo pools sit on its registry. We serve homes, multifamily communities, and commercial amenities across the city with cleaning, repairs, leak coordination, and reopen help — and we build commercial routes around the city’s permit calendar.

Who we serve

Pool compliance in Dallas works differently

Every public and semi-public pool in Dallas — apartment, condo, hotel, health club — needs an annual city permit under Chapter 43A of the city code, and permits expire at the end of February. Each permitted pool must also designate a Manager of Pool Operations certified by the City of Dallas itself, a separate credential from the industry CPO card. Then comes the spring pool sweep: from March through May, code officers inspect multifamily pools citywide, and most violations are classified life-safety with 24–48 hour windows to fix. Gates that don’t self-latch, a missing ring buoy or shepherd’s hook, a dead emergency phone, cloudy water — any of these can close a pool. We prep amenity pools before sweep season and keep chemistry and safety equipment inspection-ready through the summer.

Dallas water, freezes, and live oak season

Dallas Water Utilities fill water runs moderately hard — roughly 130–150 ppm — so calcium scale creeps onto tile lines, filters, and salt cells all season, and we manage saturation on every commercial visit. The February 2021 freeze took the metro to −2°F and damaged pool equipment across the city; plenty of equipment pads are still running mismatched replacements from that year, which is worth knowing before peak-summer failures. Spring brings the live oak leaf exchange — February through April, oaks drop leaves and catkins that load skimmers and feed algae — followed by cottonwood fluff in early summer and hail season from March to May.

From rooftop decks to garden courtyards

Dallas pool work spans every format. The Village in northeast Dallas — the largest apartment community in North Texas — runs more than 30 pools on a single property. Uptown and Victory Park towers put pools on rooftops and podium decks where every chemical delivery rides an elevator. Lake Highlands and the LBJ corridor carry 1970s–80s garden communities with multiple aging pools per property, and Oak Lawn and Turtle Creek hold mid-century condos with original gunite and plumbing. We scope service to the property, not a template.

Our Dallas routes run from East Dallas and Lake Highlands through Uptown and North Dallas — in-person service only, timed to the city's compliance calendar.
