Pools are a major investment — and in Florida’s heat, they’re also a daily essential. But even the best-maintained pool can run into issues from time to time. Knowing the most common repairs and how to catch them early can help you avoid bigger (and more expensive) problems down the line.
At Triangle Pool Service, we’ve been handling residential and commercial pool repairs across Clearwater, Tampa, St. Pete, Largo, and Palm Harbor since 1959. Here are the top 5 pool repairs we see — and how to know when it’s time to call in the pros.
1. Pool Pump Repair
The pump is the heart of your pool. If you hear loud noises, notice poor water circulation, or see skyrocketing energy bills, your pump may need attention. We handle everything from motor replacements to full system upgrades.
2. Leak Detection & Repair
Losing more than 1/4 inch of water per day? That’s likely a leak — not just evaporation. Our team uses advanced tools to pinpoint and patch leaks fast, saving you water, money, and peace of mind.
3. Cracked Tiles or Pool Surface
Over time, Florida’s heat and moisture can cause tiles to crack or surfaces to peel. These aren’t just cosmetic issues — they can lead to sharp edges, water loss, or even structural problems. We repair and resurface with long-lasting materials.
4. Filter & Skimmer Issues
Clogged or malfunctioning filters can quickly turn your pool water cloudy or green. Whether it’s a cartridge, DE, or sand filter, our experts clean, repair, or replace your system for optimal performance.
5. Heater Problems
Want year-round swimming? A faulty heater can ruin your plans fast. Whether it’s gas, electric, or solar, we troubleshoot and repair pool heaters to get your water warm again — quickly and affordably.
Don’t Ignore the Warning Signs
Strange noises, cloudy water, or visible damage are all signs something’s not right. Delaying a repair can lead to larger issues and higher costs. At Triangle Pool Service, we’re here to make sure your pool stays safe, beautiful, and fully functional — no matter the season.
