Contracts and e-signature

Pool service contracts, signed. E-signature by email or at the pool.

Turn the agreement you already use into a template once. Email the signing link, or hand the customer a phone at the pool. When it's signed, the finished PDF goes to the customer and stays on their record.

Sending and tracking

Send it once. Stop chasing signatures.

Every document shows where it stands, from sent to viewed to signed, with a history of each step. Unsigned ones get reminders on a schedule and expire when their sign-by date passes.

Every document, and where it stands.

Draft, sent, viewed, needs countersign, completed, declined, expired or voided, with a history of every event on each one.

A link by email or text.

Customers sign on a phone or computer, with nothing to install and no account to make. Texting the link needs texting on your account, which comes with the Communications add-on.

Reminders on a schedule.

Every 3 days, up to 3 times, unless you change it. Send one yourself any time. Anything unsigned past its date is marked expired.

Your signature, if you need it.

Countersign each document yourself, have your saved company signature added automatically, or leave it off.

A no comes with a reason.

Customers can decline instead of signing and leave a note, and the office is alerted.

At the pool

Sign at the pool on the tech's phone.

When the customer is standing right there, the tech opens the sent document in the Pool Runs app, taps Collect signature in person and hands over the phone. The customer gets the same consent step and guided fields as the emailed link.

  • Draw it or type itA drawn signature, or a typed one adopted with a tap
  • Sign or declineThe same choices as the emailed link
  • A 20-minute sessionThe in-person link closes on its own
  • Set by permissionOnly staff you allow can collect signatures

Questions

Before you send the first agreement.

The last page of every executed PDF: who signed, when, from which device and address, and every step in between.

Is e-signature included in the Pool Runs core plan?

Yes. Documents and e-signature are part of the core plan, from $45/month with 50 properties included, and the plan covers everyone on your team. There is no per-document or per-signature fee. Texting a signing link needs texting on your account, which comes with the Communications add-on.

Can I use the contract I already have?

Yes. Upload your PDF and place signature, initials, date-signed, text and checkbox fields on it, or write the agreement in the template editor. If you'd rather not start from a blank page, there are starter agreements for weekly service, repair estimates and liability waivers.

Can a customer sign in person on my technician's phone?

Yes. Once the document has been sent, the technician opens it in the Pool Runs mobile app, taps Collect signature in person and hands over the phone. The customer gets the same consent step, guided fields and signature options as the emailed link, and can sign or decline. The in-person session expires after 20 minutes.

What happens after a document is signed?

If your countersignature is needed, the document waits for you, or your saved company signature is added automatically. Once it's complete, Pool Runs produces the executed PDF with a certificate of completion, emails it to the customer and keeps it on the customer's record.

Does Pool Runs send signing reminders?

Yes. Scheduled reminders go out every 3 days, up to 3 times, unless you change the schedule, and you can send one yourself from the document. Documents that pass their sign-by date unsigned are marked expired.

What should a pool service contract include?

At minimum: the scope of service and visit frequency, how chemicals are billed, gate and access terms, repair authorization limits, payment terms and how either side can cancel. Our guide to what belongs in a pool service contract walks through each clause.
