Pool Repair Work in Franschhoek

Pump, filter and equipment work, and new pool installations.

Pool pump, multiport valve and sand filter removed and standing on paving
A complete filtration set lifted out for assessment — pump and basket on the left, multiport valve in the middle, sand filter behind.
Pool pump and sand filter connected to new PVC pipework alongside a wall
Pump and filter reconnected on fresh pipework. Sizing the pump to the pool and the filter matters more than fitting the biggest one available.
Excavation through brick paving exposing pool suction pipework beside a weir
Digging to reach the suction line. A pump that will not hold prime is usually air getting in somewhere ahead of it, not the pump itself.
Completed fibreglass pool filled with water and finished with dark grey coping
Filled, coped and finished. From delivery to this point is normally a few days on a straightforward site.

Frequently Asked Questions

What areas do you serve?

We serve the entire Franschhoek area and nearby suburbs. Our local network allows us to connect you with suitable professionals familiar with properties and service requirements in Franschhoek.

How do you find pool leaks?

We use pressure testing, dye testing, and specialized equipment to locate leaks in pool structures and plumbing — without needing to drain the pool in most cases.

Can you repair cracked pool structures?

Yes, we repair cracks in concrete and fiberglass pools using appropriate sealing and resurfacing techniques.

Do you work on salt water pools?

Yes, we service and repair both chlorine and salt water pool systems and equipment.

How do I know if my pool has a leak?

Signs of a pool leak include the water level dropping more than normal evaporation (roughly 5mm per day), constantly needing to top up, wet or soft spots around the pool area, or algae returning quickly after treatment. A pool leak detection specialist can confirm and locate the exact source.

Can pool leaks be repaired without draining the pool?

In many cases, yes. Minor structural cracks and fitting leaks can be repaired underwater using specialist sealants. Larger repairs may require partial or full draining depending on the location and severity of the leak.
