First off this is a new pool built by another company and I'm new to all the maintenance. My pool builder doesn't perform this service due to the amount of pool builds they have and don't have the workers to accommodate. I called around and Taunton Pools was the best priced but you get what you pay for apparently. For the $370 they clean your pool cover ($50 discount for safety covers but they make it back with a fuel charge that I didn't know about going in). They use your hose and water to clean your deck/patio, turn on the equipment and add chlorine. Seems expensive for what was performed in my opinion. They don't clean your pool at all just add chemicals turn on the system and off they go. I've since figured out how to get my equipment running on my own as I've had to shut it down for some mechanical work under warranty and it's so simple that I'll be doing it on my own now.
I will add that they are very helpful when it comes to testing your water and providing advice on what you need to add to your pool to keep it safe and clean.
