Repair Or Replace Your Safety Cover?
A pool safety cover is a vital investment in ensuring the safety of swimmers and maintaining the cleanliness of your pool. Over time, wear and tear can affect the cover's performance, leading to issues like torn straps, frayed stitching, and chafing along the pool ledge. When facing a deteriorating safety cover, the decision to repair or replace becomes essential. This guide offers insights on maintaining your pool safety cover and information from Boldt Pools on safety cover replacement, as well as a convenient option for seamless cover replacement without the need for re-measurement or new drilling.
Assessing the Damage
The first step in deciding whether your pool safety cover needs repair or replacement is to assess its condition thoroughly.
