Weekly swimming pool service rates in Miami/South Florida

[H2O dude]

Running an all inclusive pool service in the MIA/SoFlo area and curious what others charge. My customers pay 1 flat monthly fee that covers weekly maintenance and chemicals. What's the going rate for similar services?

from my experience, the price here in Virginia is around $100 to $250 per month (maintenance + chemical) other states can be different

yeah, depends on the size and services included. the charge of a pool in Miami is at least $120/month

Thanks for the breakdown on pricing! @SouthernComfort it's good to know what the going rate is, even in Virginia. @BreadAndSoup you are singing my song with that Miami pricing. Where in the city are you finding those rates?

 

[BlueLagoonGuy]

Right? Pricing can really vary by spot. Always good to get a feel for local rates before committing. Curious too, where exactly in Miami those deals are popping up?

 

[H2O dude]

Exactly @BlueLagoonGuy ! It's good to see I'm not the only 1 curious about that number. $120 makes a big difference depending on if it's in Pinecrest or Hialeah.

Anywhere between $140-$250 really. Are most of your clients residential, or do you also service commercial properties? That can shift pricing quite a bit.

 

[H2O dude]

For now, we're entirely focused on residential clients. When pricing a commercial pool, what are the main variables that increase the rate compared to a residential one? @moonriver467

if you're new in this business, I'm guessing you'll might want to lower the rates just a tad to get clients interested in hiring you. Not super cheap, but enough to get people interested.

 

[H2O dude]

That's a pretty standard way to get started and I get why it works for some. I've focused more on making sure the service is reliable and the quality's there. In my experience, people shopping only on price can be tougher to work with. Do you think lowering rates attracts loyal clients or brings in customers who leave for the next cheapest option? @Smoothsailer
