I know that Pinch A Penny has pool service but I don;t use it. Go in and talk to them on 27/441 by the Best Buy. Their pricing appears to be less than T&D what I see on their board. I go there to have my pool tested and ask questions. They are VERY helpful and much better than the T&D service in Colony Plaza AND more accurate. I used both for about 3 months as a comparison every week and always found my readings and PAP were spot on and T&D were off sometimes significantly. I am a DIY person and it is very easy. I have a barracuda pool cleaner that vacuums the floor and walls daily. Not much else to do except go around the tile edge once a week for 5 minutes and scrub the tile surface at waters edge. Also filter cleaning is a snap.
Difference is $0 cleaning + $15-$20 per month chemicals vs. $90-$120 per month with a service. I can use that $100 per month for other things.
If you have questions, I would be happy to help. PM me.
