AquaCare Pool Service

AquaCare Pool Service is a Charlton-based, self-described veteran-owned pool company run by Doug, who handles both routine maintenance and hands-on repair work on inground and above-ground pools — cleaning, water chemistry, plumbing, electrical, and pool openings and closings. Across 15 reviews on Google, Angi, and HomeAdvisor — every one of them five stars — the same qualities repeat: patience with first-time pool owners, clear explanations, and reliability. Several reviewers specifically mention Doug walking them through what chemicals do and why, something more than one called unusual for a service provider these days. In a 2023 review, a homeowner described hiring Doug after a tree fell on their fence and damaged a 16-year-old pool, saying he single-handedly got it looking brand new. Another 2023 review described him troubleshooting and fixing a pool that had been poorly installed by someone else. Pricing and follow-through come up often too — reviewers describe Doug delivering more than the standard opening service at a lower price than previous providers, and staying in touch with progress on repair jobs involving pump and ladder replacement. For pool opening and closing, routine maintenance, or repair work in the Charlton area, AquaCare's small but entirely positive track record points to a hands-on owner-operator who explains what he's doing along the way.
