Equipment Repair in Jollyville, TX
Jollyville is legacy-equipment territory, and that's exactly the work the Pool Police is built for. The mid-century ranch homes across the 78759 zip code were built in the 1970s and early 1980s, and on a lot of lots the pools still run substantially original gear — original Jandy, Compool, first-generation Pentair, and even some still-running Purex systems on aging automation and timers. We've serviced Jollyville since 2000, so we've seen every generation of equipment installed here and we know what's still parts-available and what needs a modern substitute that fits without a full equipment-pad rebuild. The water source matters too: Jollyville mixes Austin Water and well-water properties block by block, and the well-water pools scale heaters and salt cells faster, so the right repair depends on which street you're on. Oak-heavy trees load filters and pack pump baskets year-round. Keith Mallette gives an honest call on every Jollyville pool — repair the legacy system or make a targeted upgrade, fix-first either way.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you service pools in Jollyville (78759)?
Yes. Jollyville has been one of our consistent weekly service areas since 2000. We run an established route through the 78759 zip code covering Jollyville proper, Balcones Village, and the neighborhoods around the Arboretum and Great Hills edge.
My Jollyville pool has original 1980s Jandy equipment — can you still service it?
Yes. We work on original Jandy, Compool, first-generation Pentair, and even some still-running Purex equipment regularly. For parts that are no longer manufactured, we know the modern equivalents that fit without requiring a full equipment-pad rebuild. We'll tell you honestly when a repair makes sense and when a targeted upgrade is the better long-term play.
Is my water from Austin Water or a well?
Depends on the specific street. Jollyville has a mix — most homes are on Austin Water, but some older streets still have well-water properties. We test chemistry on every visit and know which streets have which water source, so our weekly treatment is calibrated to what your specific pool actually contains.
My pool pump is making a loud screeching noise — what should I do?
A screeching pump usually means the bearings are failing. Turn the pump off to prevent further damage and call us. Bearing replacement is far less expensive than a new motor, but only if caught early before the shaft or windings are affected.
How long do pool pumps typically last in Austin?
A standard single-speed pump motor lasts around 8 to 12 years in our climate. Variable-speed pumps tend to last longer because they run at lower RPMs. Proper chemical balance and regular service extend the life of any pump.
Should I repair my old equipment or replace it?
It depends on the age of the unit and the cost of the repair. As a rule of thumb, if the repair exceeds 50% of replacement cost and the unit is past its expected lifespan, replacement usually makes more sense — especially with newer energy-efficient options available.
