Pool Closing
Pool Closing in Charlotte, NC
Get your pool ready for winter before the first hard freeze. We balance the water, protect the plumbing and equipment, and get the cover on, then open it back up in the spring.
A pool closing gets your pool through the winter without freeze damage or a green mess in the spring. JAG POOL PROS closes in-ground, above-ground, and saltwater pools for homes in Charlotte and nearby towns. Estimates are free with no trip fee, and we can open the pool back up for you when it warms up.
What's included
What a closing usually includes.
- Clean the pool: skim, brush, and vacuum
- Balance the water and add winterizing chemicals
- Lower the water level if your pool and cover need it
- Clear water from the lines and plug them
- Drain and winterize the pump, filter, and heater
- Put the cover on and check that it's secure


Know the signs
Good times to book.
- You're done swimming for the year.
- The water is staying cold and you're not heating it.
- Leaves are starting to pile up in the pool.
- A freeze is in the forecast and the pool isn't protected.
- You're away for the winter and don't want to worry about it.
Pricing
What affects the price.
Every pool is different, so we quote each one. These are the things that move the number.
- The size of the pool, and whether it's in-ground or above-ground
- Your equipment: heater, spa, water features, salt system
- Your cover: its type and condition
- The water at closing time: a green pool needs a cleanup first

FAQ
Pool closing questions.
When should I close my pool in Charlotte?
Most people close once they're done swimming for the season and the water stays cold, usually in the fall. The main thing is to close before a hard freeze if the pool isn't protected. Ask us and we'll help you pick a time.
Do I have to close my pool for winter?
Not always. Some pools in the Charlotte area stay open with the pump running during freezes. Tell us about your pool and how you use it, and we'll tell you what makes sense.
Do you open pools in the spring too?
Yes. We do spring openings and winter closings.
Do you close above-ground and saltwater pools?
Yes, along with in-ground chlorine pools.
Is there a trip fee?
No. Estimates are free and there's no trip fee.
