Local conditions

Why Do Armonk Pools Need a Proper Closing?

Westchester County winters swing back and forth across freezing. Water left in a return line expands when it freezes and splits the pipe, and the same freeze-thaw cycle lifts coping stones and works mortar joints loose around the deck. Neither shows up until spring, and both cost more than the closing did.

Armonk is a hamlet in the Town of North Castle, which is where its pool permits and inspections come from rather than from any Armonk board of its own. The lots here run large and wooded, and a large wooded lot is a particular kind of closing: more leaf load, more distance between the pool and anywhere to put equipment, and usually more stonework around the water than a village garden carries.

Byram Lake and the reservoir land north of the hamlet are part of the water supply for this part of the county, which is the background to how carefully drainage is treated here. It rarely changes a closing, but it is a good reason to think about where drawn-down water goes rather than running it off the nearest edge.

What’s Included in Our Armonk Pool Closing?

Lower the water level to the right height for the winter.

Clear and plug the lines so nothing is left in the plumbing to freeze and split. Water left in a return line is the expensive winter mistake, and it is entirely avoidable.

Add winter chemicals so the water keeps through to spring.

Fit the safety cover over a pool that is ready to sit until opening day.

Safety covers

Safety Covers for Armonk Pools

A safety cover keeps the pool clean through the off-season and guards against accidental intrusion by children, pets and wildlife. We fit one at every closing, and we install and service GLI Secur-A-Pool covers.

New York sets the safety rules statewide rather than town by town: a barrier at least 48 inches high with no more than two inches of gap underneath, gates that self-close and self-latch, and a pool alarm on any residential pool built since December 2006. Where a wall of the house forms part of that barrier, a powered safety cover is one of the approved alternatives — which is worth knowing before you replace a cover that is doing a job beyond keeping leaves out.

The difference

Pool and Stonework From One Crew

Most pool companies hand the stonework to a subcontractor, and most masons will not touch water chemistry. We do both in-house — coping repair and replacement, stone patios and pool decks — so when the freeze-thaw cycle lifts a coping stone, the people who look after the water are the people who reset the stone. No second contractor, no finger-pointing. Angel Lojano founded Angel’s Pools in 1998 and still oversees every project himself.

Winter is the time to plan what you want ready for opening day: a patio or pool deck, re-plastering, or a fireplace. Our guide to travertine, bluestone and pavers covers the choice.

FAQ

Armonk Pool Closing Questions, Answered

When should I close my pool in Armonk?

Once the water holds below about 65°F for several days running — usually mid-October to early November. Armonk sits inland on higher ground than the Sound towns, so it generally reaches that point a little earlier than Harrison or Mamaroneck do.

Who issues pool permits in Armonk?

The Town of North Castle. Armonk is a hamlet rather than a village, so it has no board of its own — a detail people new to the area often go looking for and cannot find. The safety rules themselves are set by New York State.

How much does it cost to close a pool in Armonk?

It depends on the size of the pool and what the closing involves. We do not publish prices: every pool is quoted after an on-site look rather than over the phone, so the number you get is the number you pay. Call (914) 737-1445 and we will arrange a visit.

I have a lot of stonework around the pool. Who should look at it?

Ideally the same people who look after the water. Most pool companies hand stonework to a subcontractor and most masons will not touch water chemistry — we do both in-house, so coping that has lifted and the wall or base underneath it get assessed together rather than in two separate visits months apart.

My pool cover is torn — repair or replace?

Bring us out to look at it. We install and service safety covers, including GLI Secur-A-Pool, so we can tell you whether yours has another winter in it or needs replacing. On the big wooded lots around Armonk, a cover that has started to sag will not last the season.

What is the best time of year to replaster a pool?

The off-season. With the pool closed and the water down, re-plastering, waterline tile and coping can be done without losing swim time, and the work is finished before opening day. Booking in winter also means you are not waiting behind the spring rush.
