Pool service quoting software for routes and repairs
Build your own pricing for weekly service, chemicals, equipment and repairs, and bill repeat customers without chasing.
Pool companies quote two very different things: routine service and repairs. ZoloBid lets you build pricing for both and keep each customer and their equipment history in one place.
How pool companies price
Pool service is priced by the visit or by the month. Weekly service covers testing and balancing the water, skimming, brushing, emptying baskets and checking the equipment. Some companies include chemicals in the monthly price. Others bill them separately, which protects the margin when a pool needs a lot.
One time work is priced on its own. Opening and closing a pool for the season, cleaning up a green pool, and filter cleans each have a set price. Green pool cleanups are hard to guess and are often priced by how bad the water is.
Repairs and equipment are the other half of the business. Pumps, filters, heaters and salt cells are sold as equipment plus labor. A diagnostic or service call fee covers the trip when the customer decides not to do the repair.
What belongs on a pool service quote
A quote the customer can read line by line gets signed faster and argued about less.
- Weekly or monthly service price
- What each visit includes
- Chemicals: included or billed
- Opening and closing
- Green pool cleanup
- Filter clean
- Equipment and install labor
- Service call or diagnostic fee
Priced the way you already think
Answer a few questions on site and your own pricing rules turn them into lines:
- Service visits
- Equipment
- Chemicals
- Repairs
Build the questions and rules for your own way of pricing. Nothing quotes until you confirm each rule.
ZoloBid never sets your prices. The rates, minimums and markups are yours.
A sample pool service quote
Variable speed pump replacement. Example numbers only. Your prices are your own.
| Variable speed pump 1 pump, installed | $1,650 |
| Plumbing fittings and unions Flat | $120 |
| Labor 3 hours | $330 |
| Old pump disposal Flat | $40 |
| Total | $2,140 |
What slows a pool service quote down
Repairs quoted by text
A pump replacement agreed to in a text thread is hard to collect on.
Chemicals billed by memory
Extras used on a visit rarely make it to the invoice.
Equipment options
Customers want to compare a standard pump with a variable speed one.

Questions pool service owners ask
Is there a ready made pool setup?
Not yet. You build pool pricing from your own numbers and confirm each rule before it can quote.
Does ZoloBid bill weekly pool service automatically?
Not yet. Today it quotes and invoices repairs and one time work. Recurring service plans are planned.
Can I show two equipment choices?
Yes. Add the second as an option and the customer picks one before signing.
