Two other companies quoted me a new variable-speed pump. Sandhill found an air leak at the lid o-ring and fixed it that afternoon for the price of the part and the visit. I won't use anyone else.

Tell us what it’s doing. We’ll tell you which one it is.
Most people can’t tell a pump problem from a filter problem, and they shouldn’t have to. Send a photo and we’ll tell you what we see.
Hi, this is Sandhill Pool Service. What’s going on with your pool?
It turned green over the weekend.
How long has it been like that? A few days is usually chlorine or the filter, and both are cheap to prove.
Reviews
What Winter Park pool owners say
We were losing an inch a day. They ran a bucket test first, then pressure-tested each line and found a cracked return under the deck, marked it and showed me the gauge. Nobody touched the deck until we knew.
Honest about the salt cell. It had one more acid wash in it, so that is what they did. When it did need replacing a year later, the quote came in writing first.
Straight answers
Questions about our services
Do you do repairs, or only weekly service?
Both, on the same truck. The technician who tests your water every week is the one who notices the pump is drawing high, and the repair is quoted with that reading attached.
Do you work on spas?
Attached spas, yes, as part of the system. Standalone spas and swim spas are usually somebody else’s specialty, and we’ll say so rather than learn on yours.
Do you work on every make of equipment?
Yes. We repair the common residential pumps, heaters, filters and salt systems, whatever the make on the label.
