Pool Opening

A Clean Start to the Season, Handled Properly.

Spring opening is scheduled around the season, not a backlog, so the pool is clean, balanced, and ready before the first swim.

Spring Startup

Cover off, equipment on, water ready.

We remove and store the cover, bring the equipment back online, and get the water balanced and clear before the pool sees its first swimmer.

One visit, scheduled around your calendar, not a backlog of openings.

What’s Included

Everything it takes to open the pool right.

A single visit covers the full startup, so nothing is left half-finished.

Schedule Pool Opening

Why It Matters

A rushed opening becomes a summer-long problem.

A pool opened quickly or out of sequence can mean cloudy water, stressed equipment, or a plaster surface fighting algae before Memorial Day. Opening it properly, in the right order, with water chemistry corrected at the start, sets the tone for the whole season.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We hired Shinnecock Pools for a complex pool restoration that required a full plumbing update. Our project manager, Lenny V delivered beyond what we thought was possible.
Lenny was fantastic to work with—highly knowledgeable, meticulous with details, resourceful at solving unexpected issues, and sent constant updates with photos/videos. the service manager, Jairo C did an amazing job getting the new plumbing installed—ahead of schedule and with minimal disruption to our patio and landscaping. Overall, the work quality and final results exceeded our expectations in every way. Highly recommend this team! 5/5!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Where do I even begin? I cannot say enough great things about Shinnecock Pools, my project manager for my pool renovation was Lenny Vecchio and when I tell you that he went above and beyond the call of duty, I am not joking! From the beginning of the project to the end, Lenny has kept me completely updated with photos and videos Throughout the entire process. He also took it upon himself to work with the many other vendors that I had doing projects on the property at the exact same time that the pool remodel was being done and he was able to work with the other vendors seamlessly to where no one was in each other’s way, and everyone was able to get their job completed in a timely fashion and they all worked so well together and it was all thanks to Lenny and his superior management and organization skills if I could hire Lenny to run my business, I most definitely would, He is exceptional!
The other thing that I would like to highly commend Lenny and Shinnecock Pools for is along the way of replacing the pool liner and doing some other repairs to the pool, Lenny found that we had concrete structural damage and he was able to completely redo all of the concrete issues, and cracks, fixed everything, put it all back together, absolutely beautifully if he had not found that who knows what kind of disastrous things could’ve happened with the pool.

If I could give 10 stars to Lenny and Max with Shinnecock Pools I most definitely would!

When should I schedule a pool opening?

We begin spring openings as the weather allows, typically starting in April. Scheduling early secures your preferred date before the season’s backlog builds.

What does a pool opening visit include?

Cover removal and storage, a full clean of the pool and surrounding deck, equipment start-up and a safety check, filter service as needed, and startup water chemistry tested and balanced with reagent-based testing. Any issues are flagged and reported before they become repairs.

Will the water be ready to swim in right away?

In most cases, yes. We test and balance the water with reagent-based testing at the time of opening, though it can take a day or two of filtration to fully clear after a winter closed.
