Pool company in Nerja: maintenance, repairs and upgrades
In Nerja the pool is hardly ever just for the family. Between Burriana, Capistrano, Maro and the developments up the hill there are hundreds of homes let by the week from April to October, and there the pool stops being a luxury and becomes part of the product: if the water is cloudy on changeover Saturday, the review is already written.
Total Pool works in Nerja with that reality front and centre. We fit maintenance around the booking calendar, work in the windows between check-out and check-in, and prioritise faults that put the pool out of use over those that are merely annoying. The goal isn’t just water in good condition: it’s a pool that’s ready on the day someone is there to use it.

Holiday rental pools: working without stopping the lets
Working at an occupied property has different rules. We coordinate with the owner or management company to come in during the cleaning slot, leave the pool usable when we finish and avoid treatments that mean waiting hours before swimming. When a job does require downtime, we schedule it for changeover day and give advance notice so it doesn’t clash with a booking.
In peak season we check more often: a pool with twenty different people a month uses disinfectant unevenly and goes off balance much faster than one used by a single family.
Covers and heating to extend the rental season
A heated pool extends the rental window to March and November, and a cover cuts heating costs and daily cleaning. For rental properties the maths is simple: every extra week let pays for part of the installation.
A breakdown on a Saturday, with a full house
The worst time for a pump to stop in Nerja is changeover weekend – and that’s exactly when it happens most, because start-up after a change of guests puts the installation under peak load.
That’s why we separate what makes the pool unusable from what’s merely inconvenient. A blown bulb can wait; a stopped filtration unit in August can’t. When the property is managed by an agency, we agree in advance what we fix without asking and above what amount the owner needs to be called.
Where we work
Nerja town centre, Burriana, Torrecilla, Capistrano, Maro, Punta Lara and the developments on the Frigiliana road. We also cover Torrox, Frigiliana and La Herradura.

Frequently asked questions about pool services in Nerja
Can you maintain the pool if the property is let all summer?
Yes. It’s the most common situation in Nerja. We coordinate visits with the management company or the owner and work around booking changeovers.
How long does it take to get the pool back in use after a pump failure?
It depends on the equipment, but in most cases it’s sorted on the same visit, or the next day if the pump needs replacing.
Does Nerja's water cause limescale problems?
Water in the area is moderately to very hard. In pools with salt chlorination it’s worth checking the electrode regularly to prevent scale that shortens its life.
Do you work with holiday apartments that have a communal pool?
Yes – the difference is that shared-use pool regulations apply, with their water analysis and records. We handle that too.
