Timer Repair vs. Replacement

After trying to DIY my pool following online forums and YouTube videos, I couldn’t for the love of god get rid of the stubborn algae out of my pool. James came in, did his magic, my pool is now sparkling clean. Knowledge and experience are a key. They don’t just come in and clean your pool, they explain everything along the way. Highly recommended.
