Where we service pools in Los Angeles
Thirty-five communities, run as routes rather than as a radius on a map — which is why the day of the week matters when you ask.
Licensed, insured and family-owned
Where we work
Grouped the way the map behaves
An alphabetical list of city names tells you nothing. A pool in La Cañada and a pool in Encino are not the same job.
Foothill communities
Altadena, Pasadena, La Cañada Flintridge, La Crescenta, Sierra Madre, Arcadia, Monrovia, Alhambra, Montrose, South Pasadena, San Marino, San Gabriel, Sunland and Tujunga. The leafiest pools we service, where baskets and filters do the most work.
San Fernando Valley
Studio City, Sherman Oaks, Encino, North Hollywood, Burbank, Toluca Lake, Valley Village and Universal City. The hot end of the service area, and heat is a chemistry problem before it is a comfort problem.
Eastside and Central Los Angeles
Glendale, Eagle Rock, Los Feliz, Silver Lake, Echo Park, Highland Park, Glassell Park, Mid-City and Downtown Los Angeles. Older streets, older pools, and equipment that fails from age rather than neglect.
Westside and the hills
Beverly Hills, Hollywood, Hollywood Hills and West Hollywood. Slope changes the work more than the postcode: long plumbing runs, stairs to the deck, and gates that have to be arranged rather than assumed.
How the schedule really works
We run routes, not a radius
A radius on a map is a marketing drawing. A route is a real day: one loop, with the chemicals and spare parts for the pools on it already on the truck.
Every address here sits on a route that runs on a particular day — which is why the useful question is not whether we cover your city but which day we are on your street.
The day is when the gate needs unlocking, and when a heater fault or a party cleanup gets fitted in without a special trip. Ask for it when you ask for the price.
Two identical pools ten miles apart
Four things the map decides
What separates them is usually one of these.
Heat and chlorine demand
Inland sun eats free chlorine and burns through stabilizer, which is why the weekly panel reads the whole set rather than two numbers at the gate.
Slope, access and pipe runs
Long runs between pad and water make pumps and heaters work harder, and hide leaks better.
Hard water, everywhere
Top-up water leaves its calcium behind, so hardness climbs all summer — scale on the tile line first, then inside heaters and salt cells.
Worth asking anyone, us included
Three questions before you sign up
Our office is in Studio City, and the routes run out from there into the Valley, over the hill and east along the foothills.
- Which day of the week are you on my street? It tells you whether there is a real route near you, or an intention to drive out when someone books.
- How many filter cleans does my tree cover need? Under heavy foothill canopy it is more than under an open Valley sky — and it belongs in the quote, not a later invoice.
- Are chemicals in the price or billed after? The most common reason two quotes for one pool look nothing alike.
The crew
The people who do the work
Four of us. The same faces every week, not whoever was free that morning.

Came home from a two-week vacation and our pool was basically green. The previous company told us we needed to drain it, which sounded crazy. Pool Care LA came out, tested everything, explained what was happening and started the cleanup. Took a little time but now the water looks better than it has in years.Read in fullCollapse

We had another pool company for almost five years and slowly the service got worse. They would say they came but the pool was always dirty. Jake from Pool Care LA has been completely different. He actually checks the equipment and lets us know if something needs attention.Read in fullCollapse

Our pump stopped working on a Friday afternoon and we were worried because we had family coming over that weekend. Robert came out, found the problem and got everything running again. Honest guy, and he explained everything before doing the repair.Read in fullCollapse

I don't usually leave reviews but these guys deserve it. My pool was a mess and I was tired of trying to fix the chemicals myself. They came out and took care of everything. Water is clear now and I don't have to worry anymore.Read in fullCollapse

Bought a house in Beverly Hills with an older pool and honestly had no idea how to maintain it. The equipment was old and everything was confusing. They walked me through what needed to be done first and what could wait. No pressure. That was appreciated.Read in fullCollapse

We thought we needed a completely new pool system. Turns out it was just a few issues with the pump and filter. They saved us a lot of money by fixing what actually needed fixing.

We have two kids and keeping the pool safe is important for us. Since switching to Pool Care LA the water has been consistently clean and balanced. It is nice knowing someone is actually paying attention every week.Read in fullCollapse

How often should I service my pool?

Questions about coverage
Do you service my area if I do not see it on the list?
Possibly, and it is worth asking. The list is the communities our routes run through, not a boundary. Neighborhood boundaries in Los Angeles are vaguer than any list makes them look, and plenty of streets sit a few blocks outside a name on this page and already sit on a route that passes them. Send the address rather than the neighborhood and we will check it against the routes.
What day of the week would my pool be serviced?
It depends which route your address falls on, so we answer per address rather than per city. Ask for it at the same time as the price.
Does pool service cost more in some of these areas than others?
The name of the community does not set the price. The pool does: gallons and surface area, spa and features, salt or chlorine, filter cleans, and how much time access takes. Those cluster geographically, which is why Foothill pools often price above Valley pools of the same size.
Do you cover spas as well as pools in every area?
Yes. A spa is a second body of water with its own chemistry and equipment, and the same weekly plan covers both.
Can you take on a pool that has already gone green?
Yes — as a green-to-clean recovery first, then a route stop once the water is clear. And if an address does not work for us, we will say so rather than book you and quietly miss weeks: a pool serviced whenever the schedule allows is worse off than a pool on someone else's route.
Does pool service cost more in some neighborhoods than others?
No. Weekly service starts at $159 a month for a pool up to 15,000 gallons and runs to $249 a month for pools over 40,000, with standard chemicals included, and the price is the same in every community on this page. The pool decides the number, not the address. One-time work is quoted on the job: green to clean from $349, acid wash from $749, equipment repair at $175 an hour.
