Why Owner-Operated Wins
Windmill Pools has built a solid reputation for custom pool construction in DFW. They build beautiful pools. But building a pool and maintaining one are very different skill sets — and very different business models.
Construction companies that add maintenance as a service line often treat it as secondary revenue. Their best people are on the construction side. The maintenance division may have higher turnover, less experienced staff, and less focus on the details that matter for weekly pool care. At Jerico’s Pools, maintenance IS the business. Every ounce of our expertise and attention goes into keeping your pool perfect.
Frequently Asked Questions
Should I use my pool builder for maintenance?
Many homeowners default to their pool builder for maintenance, but builders and maintenance specialists have very different strengths. Builders excel at design and construction; maintenance requires different expertise in water chemistry, equipment diagnostics, and weekly care routines.
Is Windmill Pools good for weekly maintenance?
Windmill Pools is primarily recognized for pool construction and design. Their maintenance services exist, but a dedicated maintenance provider like Jerico's Pools focuses 100% on keeping pools clean, chemically balanced, and equipment running perfectly.
Can you maintain a Windmill-built pool?
Absolutely. We maintain pools built by every major builder in DFW. We're familiar with the equipment configurations and plumbing layouts commonly used by all local builders.
