Why Owner-Operated Matters

When the owner is the one servicing your pool, everything changes. There's no "I'll have to check with my manager." There's no rotating technicians who don't know your pool's history.

I personally know every pool I service. I remember that your filter needs extra attention, that your dog loves to jump in the pool, that you prefer service on Thursdays.

That's the difference between a job and a calling. Your pool care deserves someone who treats it like their own.

The Real Differences Between Jerico's Pools and ASC Pools

ASC Pools operates in the DFW market. When comparing pool companies, look beyond the base price — factor in chemical costs, contract requirements, and whether you get CPO-level expertise.

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.

“Our last pool guy would send different people every week. Nobody knew our pool. Jerico remembers everything — which filter needs extra attention, when our heater acts up. That consistency is priceless.”

Common Questions When Comparing Pool Companies

Should I choose a franchise or an independent pool company?+
Independent, owner-operated companies typically offer more personal service, lower overhead costs, and direct accountability. Franchise companies offer brand recognition but charge franchise fees that increase your price. The key question is: who will actually be at your pool each week?
Why does CPO certification matter?+
CPO (Certified Pool Operator) certification requires passing a comprehensive exam covering water chemistry, equipment operation, and health compliance. Most pool technicians at franchise companies don’t have this certification. It’s the difference between someone who can skim and vacuum vs. someone who truly understands your pool’s chemistry and equipment.
Are chemicals really included at Jerico’s Pools?+
Yes — all chemicals are included in the $200/month price. Many competitors advertise a lower base price but charge $50-100+ monthly for chemicals on top. Always compare total cost, not just the service fee.
What if I’m under contract with another company?+
Many pool service contracts have a 30-day cancellation clause. Check your agreement. When you’re ready to switch, I can usually start within a week and will ensure a seamless transition with no gap in service.
