What you're seeing

When a pool light needs repair

Here's what homeowners usually describe when they call about a pool light. You don't have to work out which one is yours, because identifying exactly where the fault sits is what the diagnostic visit is for.

It won't come on

A dead pool light can start at the fixture, the transformer, the wiring, the GFCI, the switch or the control board. Working out which one is what the diagnostic visit is for.

One's out, another's fine

Describe what you're seeing. A single dark pool light fixture usually means the problem is with that fixture, while a whole dark pool points toward the transformer, the wiring, the automation or something at the panel.

It flickers, or quits after a while

A flickering light often traces back to water getting past the lens gasket and into the fixture housing. Condensation or fogging behind the lens is an early warning sign.

The breaker or GFCI trips

Don't keep resetting it. A GFCI that trips repeatedly is protecting you from something electrical, and on a pool light that's not something you want to ignore.

The colors stick, or cycle

Color LEDs take their cue from a controller at the pad, so the trouble often starts before the fixture does.

The app or panel can't reach them

Lights on Pentair ScreenLogic or Jandy AquaLink can go dark because the connection between the panel and the fixture was dropped. We'll check the automation when we're diagnosing the light.

Before you book a pool light repair

Two things are worth checking first. Make sure the switch or timer is actually calling for the light, then see whether the breaker tripped.

If it tripped, reset it once. If it trips again, leave it off and call us. That GFCI is doing its job, and it's protecting you from a fault in a circuit that runs into water.

Why a pool light isn't a bulb swap

A pool light isn't the indoor-bulb job it looks like. The fixture's bonded and sealed against the water around it, and that lens gasket is what keeps the water and the current apart.

Where we start

Pool light repair starts with a $149 diagnostic

A licensed, insured technician diagnoses the fixture, its gasket and the transformer feeding it, then gives you the repair price before anybody orders a part.

You pay $74.50 when you schedule. Approve the repair and that $74.50 comes straight off your bill, so the diagnostic costs you nothing.

Do you need a repair or a replacement? That's what the diagnostic visit settles. The fault can sit at the fixture itself or back at the transformer, and those two lead to very different numbers.

When the fixture's flooded or the conduit run has failed, replacement is the honest answer. We'll tell you that plainly.

What goes into your quote

Things like whether the fixture is LED or incandescent, how much wire the run needs, and whether the light is on automation or a plain switch all factor into the cost of a replacement.

We work all of that out on the diagnostic visit, then give you straight pricing in writing before doing the work.

Repair Diagnostic
$149
  • The fixture and its lens gasket, checked for water
  • The transformer at the pad, plus the GFCI it feeds
  • Pentair ScreenLogic or Jandy AquaLink, where the lights run through one
  • What's actually wrong with the fixture, explained in plain words
  • Whether a repair or a replacement fixture is the better buy
  • Your fixture's make and model confirmed before we order anything
  • A price for a new fixture, if that's the way to go
A photo of the label helps

Replacement fixtures and gaskets vary by manufacturer, so a photo of the label saves a return trip.

You usually don't need to be home

If the gate's unlocked we can usually start without you, though the breaker panel and the interior switch may need you there.

You approve the price

Nothing gets ordered or installed until you've approved the replacement number in writing.

What happens after the visit

You'll get a written quote with what we found and what the fix costs. Approve it and pay the deposit in the quote itself, once you've had your questions answered.

And after you approve it

The deposit releases the parts order, and a replacement fixture usually reaches Round Rock inside a week. You'll get a link to pick your day, plus a text when it lands.

The balance comes due once the light's back on and you're happy with it, not a moment sooner. Text us at any point along the way.

If it's a simple fix

A deteriorated gasket or a failed transformer is usually a same-visit repair, and you'll have the price before we start.

If a new fixture is the better buy

Replacing isn't always the expensive answer. Today's fixtures are LED, so they draw a fraction of what an incandescent fixture drew and they last far longer in the niche.

You get it in writing after the visit and you approve the number before anything is ordered.

Common questions

Pool light repair questions

How much does pool light repair cost?
The diagnostic visit is $149. That's not a starting price, and it's free if you go ahead with the repair. What the repair itself costs depends on what we find, and you get that number in writing before anyone orders a part.
Can you help if my pool light keeps tripping, or if automation is involved?
Yes. We check the pool-light clues and the electrical clues at the equipment pad. If your lights run through ScreenLogic or a similar controller, that's part of the picture too. We'll tell you where the fault sits.
Is the warranty better if I buy the part through you?
Depending on the manufacturer and the part, it can be quite a bit better. We buy from an authorized distributor and we're licensed to fit the pool equipment, that combination is what can get you parts and labor covered for a few years instead of parts only for a few months. We can help you check with the manufacturer for details and remind you to register the part once it's installed.
What if the light needs replacing, not repairing?
Either way you get that in writing after the same visit. If it's a replacement, the quote has everything in it already: the fixture, any other parts and materials, our labor, and hauling off the old one. The number on the quote is the number you pay. You approve it before anything gets ordered, and your $74.50 deposit still comes off the bill, same as it would for a repair.
How soon can you get out here?
Often same-day, so it's worth asking. Otherwise you pick whichever day suits you from the calendar when you schedule, and we'll tell you straight if we can do better than the day you picked.
What areas do you serve for pool light repair?
We fix pool lights across Williamson and Travis Counties, out to about fifty miles from Round Rock. Georgetown, Taylor and Pflugerville are all on the list, and the locations page has the rest. Send your ZIP to (737) 259-7379 if you're near the edge of it.
