Why Owner-Operated Wins
Large pool service companies have a lot of overhead — managers, dispatchers, office staff, fleet vehicles — all of which get baked into your monthly bill. They may send a different technician to your pool every week, someone who doesn't know your equipment, your water history, or your preferences.
With Jerico's Pools, you get the owner at every single visit. I know your pool inside and out — your equipment model numbers, your water chemistry trends, and exactly what your pool needs each week. That consistency leads to better results, fewer problems, and lower long-term costs.
Frequently Asked Questions
How is Jerico's Pools different from ABC Pools?
Jerico's Pools is owner-operated, meaning the CPO-certified owner personally services your pool every visit. Unlike corporate pool companies that rotate technicians, you get the same experienced professional every week who knows your pool's specific needs.
Is owner-operated pool service more expensive?
No. Our Standard plan starts at $200/month with ALL chemicals included. Many corporate companies charge a lower base rate but add fees for chemicals, shock treatments, and other "extras" that increase the real cost.
What areas do you serve compared to ABC Pools?
We serve 21+ communities across North Texas including Rhome, Keller, Southlake, Colleyville, Haslet, Roanoke, Argyle, and more. Our focused service area means faster response times and better local knowledge.
The Real Differences Between Jerico's Pools and ABC Pools
ABC Pools operates in the DFW area. When comparing local providers, the key differentiators are certification level, chemical inclusion policy, and whether the owner or an employee services your pool.
Local pool companies vary widely in quality. The key differentiators to evaluate are: certification level (CPO vs. none), chemical policy (included vs. extra), contract requirements, and whether the owner is actually involved in day-to-day service.
At Jerico's Pools, the model is fundamentally different: I am the owner and I am the technician. There is no middle management, no franchise fee, no corporate overhead. Every dollar you pay goes directly toward the chemicals in your pool, the expertise of a CPO-certified professional, and the time and attention your pool deserves.
