Winter Care

Protecting Your Pool Doesn’t Stop When the Season Does.

From December through April, our Winter Care service provides attentive, monthly oversight of your pool throughout the off-season, protecting the water, equipment, and finishes while the property sits closed.

Off-Season Oversight

What a closed pool can’t tell you on its own.

Our technicians monitor the details that can easily go unnoticed during the winter months, helping protect your pool, equipment, and finishes while keeping the property secure and properly maintained.

Winter Care runs December through April, with one professional service visit each month.

Why Winter Care Matters

Even closed, a pool keeps changing.

Even while your pool is closed, changing weather, precipitation, debris, and fluctuating water chemistry can create problems beneath the cover. Regular winter attention helps reduce the risk of cover damage, staining and calcium buildup, equipment issues, and unsafe cover conditions, while helping ensure your pool is well cared for when it’s time to reopen.

 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!

How often do Winter Care visits happen?

Winter Care runs December through April, with one professional service visit scheduled each month.

What does a Winter Care visit include?

Every visit covers water chemistry testing and balancing, water level checks, pumping excess water off the cover, debris removal, cover strap and hardware inspection, and an equipment and heater check, including signs of rodent activity. Damaged water bags, springs, or anchors are replaced as needed.

Why does a closed pool still need attention in winter?

Changing weather, precipitation, debris, and fluctuating water chemistry can create problems beneath the cover even while the pool is closed. Regular winter attention reduces the risk of cover damage, staining and calcium buildup, equipment issues, and unsafe cover conditions, so the pool is well cared for when it is time to reopen.
