Tartan Pools repairs pool pumps, filters, heaters, plumbing, automation and salt systems in Mesa. Our records show 85 equipment repairs completed in Mesa in the 12 months to 11 October 2026, each one quoted and approved before work started, most of them in east Mesa.
Every repair starts with a diagnostic service call, $95 to $165, and a written quote. Nothing is replaced until you have approved the price, and when the job is done you get a photo report of the work. Tartan Pools is a licensed Arizona contractor, ROC #349378.
✔ Pumps and motors: no-prime, air leaks, seal failures, tripped breakers, loud bearings and burned-out motors. We repair where it makes sense and replace, often with a variable-speed unit, where it does not.
✔ Filters: cracked tanks, torn cartridges, broken DE grids, failed manifolds and pressure problems that cleaning alone will not fix.
✔ Heaters and heat pumps: ignition faults, sensor and board failures, flow switches, and heat exchangers scaled up by hard water.
✔ Equipment leaks: drips and sprays at pump lids, seals, unions, valves and filter clamps on the equipment pad, fixed before they waste water or burn out a pump.
✔ Plumbing: cracked PVC, failed unions, stuck or leaking valves and suction-side air problems.
✔ Automation: controllers, actuators, relays, timers and app connections that have stopped doing what the display says they are doing.
✔ Salt systems: scaled cells, flow sensor faults, dead boards and power centers, and cells at the end of their life.
East Mesa pools sit close to the desert and the Superstitions, so dust and debris after a monsoon storm are heavier than in the central Valley, and that load ends up in filters, skimmer lines and pump baskets. Hard water scales heaters and salt cells across the city, and summer heat keeps pumps running long hours.
When an older single-speed pump or timer fails, we quote the straight repair and a variable-speed replacement side by side, so you can compare the cost and the running savings.
Water on the equipment pad or a water level dropping faster than evaporation explains.
Pump sounds different, will not prime, or shows air bubbles in the basket lid.
Filter pressure that climbs back up within days of a cleaning.
Salt system showing low salt or no flow when the water tests fine.
Heater that clicks but never fires, or shuts down after a few minutes.
Automation running the pool on a schedule you did not set.
Text or call with the symptom. A photo of the equipment pad helps us bring the right parts.
Diagnostic visit, $95 to $165. You get a text when the tech is on the way, and the stop is GPS-logged.
Written quote. Parts, labor and the reason, in plain words. You approve it before anything is ordered.
The repair. Done by our own technician, with a photo report of the finished work in your portal.
If you are a weekly service customer, the diagnostic is usually faster because your technician already knows the equipment pad and has the history in your portal. Small fixes are often handled right on the route.
Most of the equipment we repair in Mesa is Pentair, followed by Hayward and some Jandy. We quote the straight repair and, where it makes sense, an upgrade such as a variable-speed pump side by side, so you can choose with the numbers in front of you.
