When Is the Right Time to Expand a Pool Service Team?

Hi everyone,I’m looking for advice on expanding my pool service team. Currently, it’s just me and one employee (who is leaving soon to go back to school after two years). I handle all the repairs myself, but I’m also in the middle of taking over my father’s pool building company, which is taking up a lot of my time. My question is: How do you determine when it’s the right time to hire additional employees for service routes? I know it depends on business finances, but is there a guideline or rule of thumb for knowing how many service routes you should have before pulling the trigger?I want to make sure I grow responsibly while still managing everything effectively. Any insights would be greatly appreciated!

Grand Pools

Our area is starting to have more lavish pool designs and I was wondering what are some tips and best practices to keep them clean - especially when you cannot reach all sides. The picture below is of a pool we were recently asked to quote for cleaning services.Is it normal to get in the pool to clean it - walk on the lounge shelf?
