Stafford, Texas · Pool care since 2003
CPO-certified cleaners on a weekly route, and a repair bench that takes on the pump, heater and salt-cell work other contractors turn down. Free estimates.
What Reed’s actually is
Two halves of the same business. The route is the weekly visit: the same cleaner, the same day, water tested and balanced against what the week actually did to it. The bench is everything mechanical behind the equipment pad, from a time clock that has drifted to a salt cell that has stopped making chlorine.
James Ayre bought the business from founder Reed Hartzog in August of 2017, a few weeks before Harvey. The name on the truck has been on Fort Bend County pools since 2003.
CPO-Certified Cleaners | Rated 5 Stars by Customers | Free Estimates
Texas Residential Appliance Installer. Carecraft and PHTA member, Zodiac authorized dealer.
The weekly route
Customers stay for a decade or more because the route does not shuffle. Debbie McGuire has been with Reed's at least ten years. Jim Wilson has had us on his equipment for twenty.
What we handle
One keeps the water right week after week. The other fixes the machinery when it stops doing its job.
The route
Water chemistry checked and balanced on every visit, baskets cleaned, floor vacuumed, surface skimmed, walls brushed, D.E. and sand filters backwashed, cleaner bag emptied, and your equipment looked over while we are there.
Weekly service
The bench
Pumps, heaters, filters, time clocks, salt systems, lights, automation and automatic cleaners. Pentair and Polaris equipment installed and serviced, including warranty work other contractors decline.
Repair workBefore you call
None of these fix themselves, and two of them get more expensive the longer they run.
Usually blocked pipework or a control board that has stopped calling for heat. The heater is rarely the part that is actually broken.
A pipework fault, a sand filter that has blocked, or a pump no longer moving the volume it is rated for. Chemistry alone will not clear it.
This is the urgent one. Cracks can mean water is leaving the shell, and the ground under a Fort Bend County pool does not forgive that for long.
Mains voltage next to water. Never a do-it-yourself job, whatever the video said. We replace incandescent and color-changing LED fittings.
The equipment pad
Everything that makes the water move sits on a slab beside the house. When it is right, nobody thinks about it. We install and service the equipment we would put on our own pads:
What customers say
Rated 5.0 from 172 Google reviews. Voted Angie’s List Super Service Award winner six years in a row, 2012 through 2017.
“I have been using Reed's pool service for at least 10 years for all my pool needs. They are very professional, friendly and reply to my requests in a timely manner. They do a great job and the prices are reasonable. I just started using their pool cleaning service and Victor has been doing an awesome job.”
“Reeds Pool service has taken care of my pool equipment for 20 years. They do a great job. I recently added weekly pool cleaning to the scope of the pool service. It is nice to have them handling the job I have done myself for all of the years.”
“Reed's Pool Service is superb and stands out among all others in Houston! After my under-warranty Polaris PB4-50 pump stopped working, Leslie's Pool Supplies refused to help without hefty fees (and previously the pump was installed by a local store of Leslie pool supply). Polaris gave me a list of authorized contractors, but most declined the small job. Everything changed when I called James at Reed's Pool Service. He collected my receipt and serial number, then immediately sent a technician. The tech not only repaired the pump for free under warranty but also taught us how to maintain it. This is exactly the 5-star service every pool owner desires. I will definitely use James and Reed's for all my future pool needs!”
Since 2003
James is a Texas native and a University of Houston graduate. He bought Reed’s from founder Reed Hartzog in August of 2017 and then, almost immediately, spent a season on Fort Bend County pools that Hurricane Harvey had filled with half the neighborhood.
He kept the name, the route and the customers. Some of those customers have now been with Reed’s for two decades, through the handover, without the service on their pool changing.
