The price depends mainly on pool size, visit frequency and what the contract covers: a season-only arrangement with weekly cleaning costs less than year-round care including winterising, chemicals and equipment checks. Location matters too - a remote finca means travel time that will be priced in. Ask for a written quote that states clearly whether chemicals, filter servicing and salt system checks are included, and compare annual contracts on scope rather than on the headline price alone.
In the Mallorcan summer an open pool can lose several centimetres of water a week to evaporation alone, so a falling level is not automatically a leak. The bucket test gives a quick answer: place a bucket filled with pool water on the top step, mark both water levels and compare them after 24 to 48 hours. If the pool level has dropped noticeably more than the level in the bucket, a leak is likely. Professional leak detection then uses pressure testing of the pipework, dye tests and electroacoustic methods to pinpoint the fault without breaking up the terrace on suspicion.
Weekly visits during the season are the norm: cleaning, water testing and a check of the pump and filter. With strong sun and warm water, a neglected pool turns green quickly, and recovering green water is far more work than preventing it. Outside the season longer intervals are fine, combined with proper winterising. If you let your property to holiday guests, documented regular maintenance is now considered part of your duty of care.
Look for a written contract with a clearly defined scope, visit records that log the measured water values, and transparency about whether chemicals are included. A reputable company checks the simple causes first - a blocked pump basket, a worn seal - before recommending a full replacement. Work on pool electrics, such as swapping halogen lights for LED units, should only be carried out with a compliant low-voltage supply and safety transformer, with a licensed electrician brought in for larger electrical jobs.
If your pump is ten years old or more, a modern variable-speed model is worth considering: it runs more quietly and cuts electricity costs noticeably, which matters given energy prices in the Balearics. Warning signs of an ageing pump include loud bearing noise, air in the strainer basket and falling circulation. A good pool maintenance company will weigh up a repair against a replacement with you rather than defaulting to the most expensive option.
