Humidity keeps algae pressure high from May through September, so weekly service earns its keep. Pollen opens the season in March, storm cleanups punctuate the summer, and most pools take a light November-to-March pause rather than a hard northern-style close. The season runs from late April into October, with hot, humid weather through the middle. Winters are short and mild, so many owners idle equipment rather than fully close, while Gulf Coast owners also plan for hurricane season.
The largest listed markets are Mobile (9 companies), Birmingham (6 companies), Hoover (6 companies).
Ask for a written visit checklist and price sheet, then confirm test reporting, skipped-visit policy, chemical surcharges and how repairs are billed. For a saltwater pool, get the cell inspection and cleaning schedule in writing. Between visits, Pool School's chemistry guides and the volume calculator help you follow the trend yourself.

Weekly is the standard cadence during late April through early October; heavy use, storms, trees and high temperatures may call for extra brushing or testing between visits. Mild winters mean many routes drop to every other week once the water cools.
A full-service visit includes water testing and balancing, skimming, brushing the walls and tile line, vacuuming as needed, emptying skimmer and pump baskets, checking filter pressure and looking over the pump, filter, heater and salt cell. Filter deep-cleans, salt-cell cleaning, algae treatments, tile blasting and repairs are commonly separate line items — ask for the price sheet.
A green-to-clean recovery in Alabama typically runs $250–$525: shock treatments over several visits, brushing, vacuuming to waste and a filter deep-clean ($70–$145).

DIY chemicals typically run $50–$100 a month plus your time and a good test kit; a service adds trained eyes on the equipment every week and catches small leaks, failing seals and filter problems before they become repairs. Many owners split the work — a service handles chemistry and equipment while a robotic cleaner handles the floor between visits.
Most residential routes are month-to-month or season-to-season, but terms vary. Check notice requirements, skipped-visit policies, chemical surcharges, filter-clean fees and how minor parts are billed before enrolling — those details usually matter more than a small difference in the base rate.
