The Lowest Bidder

It is unwise to pay too much, but it is worse to pay too little.

When you pay too much, you lose a little money - that is all.

When you pay too little, you sometimes lose everything!

The common law of business balance prohibits paying a little and getting a lot - it can't be done.

If you deal with the lowest bidder, it is well to add something for the risk you run.

And if you do that, you will have enough to pay for something BETTER.

Commercial pool resurfacing by Blue Dolphin Pools, Inc. is a sure bet for success. Whether you're an apartment complex, municipality, country club, health club, or swim club, Blue Dolphin Pools can bring your commercial pool back to its original beauty. Using our 15-step fiberglass resurfacing process, we can repair cracks and leaks in the pool surface and give your pool a sparkling white, smooth, algae-resistant surface with a life of up to 35 years!

Pulling cracked, peeling, unsightly commercial pools back from the brink is our specialty!

"Mark Robinson of Blue Dolphin Pools, Inc., worked long hours through a challenging wet-weather period and gave us a pool that was spectacular, both in appearance and durability. The thing that most impressed us was that he remained committed to finishing our pool and doing it right. He is committed to excellence and will most definitely be asked to bid on future pool renovation projects at the resort. We recommend Mark and Blue Dolphin Pools without reservation."

Handy Pool Tips
Servicing your pool and spa is more important than most people realize - especially if they've never owned a pool before. So when selecting a pool or spa company, consider the level of service they will offer later.
Handy Pool Tips
Try to fill your plaster pool as quickly as possible. If you stop filling and then resume later, the water will leave a ring in the plaster where you stopped.
Handy Pool Tips
Never completely drain your fiberglass swimming pool, especially if it is flaking or peeling in places. The pressure from the water on the walls of the pool keeps the fiberglass in place until a contractor can get there to repair it!
Handy Pool Tips
Always rinse your water testing materials in the water you are about to test. Using soap or tap water can leave a residue that may interfere with the test.
Handy Pool Tips
Always use fresh test strips when Ph testing your water, and take water samples at least 18 inches below the surface.
Handy Pool Tips
If you do need to add chemicals, wait to see whether they have the desired effect. Wait 15 minutes for liquid chlorine to circulate (with the pump running) and about 12 hours for the Ph to adjust.
Handy Pool Tips
When vacuuming your pool, move at a slow, steady pace. If you move too quickly, the current created by the vacuum head will stir up any dirt on the bottom of the pool.
Handy Pool Tips
Write the normal operating pressure directly on the filter with a waterproof marker, so you will never have to second-guess that number.
Handy Pool Tips
Leave the pool on the first sound of thunder, and wait 20 minutes after the last sound of thunder to let people back in the pool.
Handy Pool Tips
Never completely drain your fiberglass swimming pool, especially if it is flaking or peeling in places. The pressure from the water on the walls of the pool keeps the fiberglass in place until a contractor can get there to repair it!
