While it’s very important to make sure the water in your pool is clear and inviting, it’s just as important to take care of your pool cover, otherwise, debris and filth, the very things the cover is designed to fight, will find their way into your pool. For more than 30 years, Gutierrez Pool Plastering has been offering a variety of pool decorating and restoration services to customers throughout New Jersey. Their pebble and stone finishes will add a vibrant natural beauty to both your pool and your entire yard.

Opening your pool to reveal its appealing décor during the summer months is always a joyous experience, assuming you’ve properly cared for your pool’s cover. Take a look at the following cleaning tips for a variety of covers to ensure they do their jobs:

• Automatic Pool Cover: If you have an automatic cover, any and all debris needs to be consistently cleaned off. This can be accomplished with the use of a leaf blower, push broom, or hose. The components responsible for moving the cover should be lubricated every year with a Teflon-based spray to ensure they run up-to-par.
• Solid Cover: Power washing is an excellent way to keep your solid cover clean. When storing these covers during the summer, make sure they are in a clean, dry place away from any potential pests.
• Mesh Cover: A mesh cover can be cleaned with a simple push broom. Since water flows much easily over mesh covers, they do not accumulate as much mold as a solid or automatic cover.

With proper cover maintenance, your pool will be free of debris and mold when you get ready to splash into it. For assistance and information on services such as plastering, pool tiling, and deck installations, visit Gutierrez Pool Plastering online.
