Pool & Garden Maintenance

The first step to keeping your pool clean and clear is to make sure your water is circulating properly.

Pool maintenance starts with pool circulation because if your pool water isn’t moving, your pump isn’t pumping, or your filter isn’t filtering, you’re going to be fighting an uphill battle to keep your pool clean. This is because stagnant water is a breeding ground for algae growth.

There are several parts that make up your pool’s circulatory system. The skimmer, the pump, the filter, and the jets. If any one of these pieces is significantly impeded, your water quality will suffer. Here’s a short explanation of how a pool works to keep your water clean and circulating:

• Pump sucks water from pool through skimmer (usually a rectangular door)
• Water travels through pump into filter
• Filter cleans out particles that are making your water dirty
• Water is pushed back into pool through pool jets

Garden  Maintenance:

Garden maintenance generally includes lawn mowing and edging, weeding, trimming, and pruning and the clearing up of leaves, especially in the Autumn. After that it really depends on what clients have in their gardens so it may also include fruit tree and bush pruning, cutting of large hedges, planting of seasonal bedding plants and bulbs, top dressing and mulching, lawn treatments and repairs.

Garden maintenance will also vary depending on client requirements as some like to mow their own grass and we will do everything else. At Culverhouse Gardens we will tailor a maintenance package that works for each client and gives them a garden that they can enjoy.
