Welcome to Town Pools. These Terms of Service govern your use of the TownPools.co.za website and the services provided by Town Pools in Cape Town, South Africa.

By accessing our website, requesting a quotation, or using our services, you agree to these Terms of Service.

1. About Town Pools

  • New pool construction
  • Pool renovations and upgrades
  • Pool repairs
  • Pump and filter installation and repairs
  • Pool heating solutions
  • Pool cleaning and maintenance
  • Mosaic and tiling work
  • Coping and paving
  • Waterproofing and pool lining
  • Jacuzzi and spa installation

The availability of specific services may vary depending on your location, project requirements, site conditions, and other relevant factors.

2. Quotations

Any quotation provided by Town Pools is based on the information available at the time of assessment.

Quotations may be subject to change if:

  • The scope of work changes.
  • Additional repairs or work are required.
  • Hidden defects or unforeseen site conditions are discovered.
  • The client requests additional services or materials.
  • Material or supplier costs change before acceptance.
  • Information provided by the client is inaccurate or incomplete.

A quotation does not constitute a binding agreement until it has been formally accepted by both parties, where applicable.

3. Client Responsibilities

To enable us to provide our services effectively, clients may be required to:

  • Provide accurate information regarding the project or pool.
  • Provide reasonable access to the property and work area.
  • Obtain any necessary permissions or approvals, where required.
  • Inform Town Pools of any known site conditions or potential risks.
  • Provide access to water, electricity, and other necessary facilities where applicable.
  • Remove or secure personal belongings and valuable items from the work area.
  • Make payments according to the agreed payment terms.

Delays caused by a lack of access, incomplete information, or circumstances outside our reasonable control may affect project timelines and costs.

4. Payments

Payment terms, deposit requirements, and project costs will be communicated to the client before work begins.

For larger projects, payments may be required in stages according to agreed project milestones.

Unless otherwise agreed in writing:

  • Deposits may be required before work commences.
  • Progress payments may be required during larger projects.
  • Final payment may be required upon completion of the agreed scope of work.
  • Additional work requested by the client may result in additional charges.

Failure to make payments according to agreed terms may result in the suspension or delay of services.

5. Changes to the Scope of Work

Any changes or additions requested after work has commenced may affect the project timeline and overall cost.

Town Pools reserves the right to provide an updated quotation for additional work before proceeding.

We will not be responsible for delays caused by changes requested by the client.

6. Project Timelines

We make every reasonable effort to complete projects within the estimated timeframe provided.

However, project timelines may be affected by circumstances including:

  • Weather conditions
  • Material availability
  • Supplier delays
  • Site accessibility
  • Unforeseen structural or technical issues
  • Changes to the project scope
  • Delays caused by third parties

Any estimated completion date should therefore be considered an estimate unless specifically agreed otherwise in writing.

7. Repairs and Existing Pool Conditions

When working on an existing swimming pool, certain hidden or underlying issues may only become visible after work has started.

Town Pools will inform the client where reasonably possible if additional problems are discovered that require further work.

We cannot guarantee that repairs to one component of an existing pool will resolve unrelated or previously undetected problems.

8. Materials and Products

Town Pools aims to use suitable, quality materials and equipment for each project.

The availability of specific products, colours, finishes, and equipment may vary. Where a selected product is unavailable, we may recommend a suitable alternative.

Variations in colour, texture, appearance, and finish may occur due to manufacturing processes, lighting, natural materials, or other factors.

9. Warranties and Workmanship

Any warranties provided by Town Pools will be communicated as part of the relevant project agreement or quotation.

Certain products and equipment may be covered by separate manufacturer warranties. These warranties are subject to the terms and conditions of the relevant manufacturer or supplier.

Warranty coverage may not apply where damage or faults result from:

  • Improper use or neglect
  • Failure to follow maintenance recommendations
  • Unauthorised repairs or modifications
  • Accidental damage
  • Natural wear and tear
  • Extreme weather or environmental conditions
  • Problems caused by third-party work

10. Pool Maintenance

Regular maintenance is essential for the proper operation and longevity of a swimming pool.

Clients are responsible for following appropriate maintenance recommendations and instructions provided by Town Pools or equipment manufacturers.

Failure to properly maintain a swimming pool or its equipment may affect performance, durability, and warranty coverage.

Where Town Pools provides ongoing maintenance services, the scope and frequency of those services will be agreed upon separately.

11. Health and Safety

Swimming pools involve inherent risks. Clients are responsible for ensuring that appropriate safety measures are maintained at their property.

Town Pools recommends that clients comply with all applicable safety requirements relating to swimming pools, including appropriate fencing, covers, gates, and supervision where necessary.

Children and vulnerable persons should always be appropriately supervised around swimming pools.

12. Limitation of Liability

To the extent permitted by applicable law, Town Pools will not be liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential losses arising from the use of our website or services.

Town Pools will not be responsible for delays, losses, or damage caused by circumstances beyond our reasonable control, including severe weather, supplier delays, or unforeseen site conditions.

Nothing in these Terms of Service is intended to exclude or limit any rights or protections that cannot legally be excluded under applicable South African law.
