What Is Pool Repair?

Why Professional Pool Closing Matters

Closing a pool may seem straightforward, but mistakes can lead to serious damage. Frozen pipes, cracked equipment, unbalanced water, and cover failures are all common issues when pools are not closed properly.



At Long Island Pool & Spa, we eliminate those risks by following a trusted process, using the right tools, and applying decades of hands-on experience with all types of in-ground pools.

  • Prevent Freeze-Related Damage: We ensure lines and equipment are properly cleared and sealed to avoid expansion and cracking.
  • Avoid Costly Spring Repairs: A correct closing now prevents issues that can delay or complicate your next opening.
  • Protect Your Water Quality: We treat your water to minimize algae growth, surface staining, and chemical imbalance during the off-season.
  • Save Time & Eliminate Stress: We handle every step so you can focus on the end of the season without added hassle.
