Under the Roof with Randy Barfield

It's Not Rocket Science

May 24, 2024 • Season 4 • Episode 5

On this Memorial Day weekend kickoff, Randy and Mary welcome Steve Lyon, Principal of Service, Repairs and Maintenance at Tri-County Pools. Steve and Randy discuss the ins and outs of pool design and construction, the value of a pool in residential real estate, a Central Texas obstacle for saltwater pools, and what it takes to properly maintain a home swimming pool. Steve explains that while taking care of a pool is not exactly rocket science, there is science involved!

Since teaming with John Luebbe and Dan Allen, Steve has built Tri-County Pools Service into a company servicing over 2,000 customers, offering repair on all problems that may arise with in-ground gunite pools. From maintenance and cleaning to repairs and complete renovations, Tri-County has factory trained technicians to handle any pool problem. Learn more at swimaustin.com.
