Here one year - used T&D and Sparkling.
Re TD - like most everyone else states - they have one of the highest prices and it all depends on the technician as to the quality of clean.
TD will frequently rotate techs to accommodate personnel issues. The techs have no control over their routes. We had 7 different techs work our pool - one was outstanding - one was good - the rest were an embarrassment to the company as they didn’t seem to know basic concepts and they loved to solve all problems by “shocking” the water.
Re - sparkling - we had 2 techs. Both didn’t do a good job of scrubbing the sides - algae was missed that had accumulated on the ladder and above the scupper area. They both spent about 15 minutes with a 10,000 gallon pool. We only used them for a couple of weeks.
Like some have said - it is easy to do it yourself. That’s what we are doing now. You’ll have to spend a couple 100 getting a quality test kit and cleaning equipment. Depending upon if u have a tab or salt pool - there will be chemical and salt expenses.
It’s my opinion that many pool owners have no idea or don’t want to know about the care of their pools. That’s fine if u have a knowledgeable tech consistently working the pool.
If you don’t and you don’t know anything about pool maintenance/issues you could very quickly end up facing expensive corrections.
