What's Included

What We Do

Assess algae type and severity — green, mustard, or black — to choose the right attack plan
Brush every surface to break up algae colonies so chemicals can penetrate
Apply targeted shock treatment calibrated to the actual chlorine demand, not a guess
Run the filter continuously and backwash or clean elements as pressure rises during the kill cycle
Vacuum dead algae to waste so it leaves the pool entirely instead of recirculating
Rebalance all chemistry — pH, alkalinity, stabilizer, and calcium — for long-term stability

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does it take to clear a green pool?

Most green pools in the Austin area are swimmable within 48 to 72 hours. Severe cases — especially pools that have been neglected for months — may take up to a week if the filter media needs replacement and multiple rounds of vacuuming are required.

Why did my pool turn green?

Algae blooms happen when sanitizer levels drop below effective range, usually due to a pump failure, a chemical imbalance, or heavy organic debris after a storm. Austin's heat accelerates algae growth dramatically — a pool can go from slightly cloudy to full green in 24 to 48 hours during summer.

Can I swim in a green pool?

No. A green pool harbors bacteria, parasites, and high levels of organic contaminants. It's not safe to swim in until the water has been properly treated, filtered, and tested. We'll confirm the water is safe before giving you the all-clear.

I'm in Jester Estates — are you on a route near me?

Yes. We have an established route through Jester Estates, Grandview Hills, Canyon Creek, and Jollyville within the 78726 and 78750 zip codes. Service days are typically consistent week over week so you know when to expect us.

My neighborhood has a mix of old and new pools — does that matter?

It does. Older pools in Canyon Creek may have aging plaster, original copper plumbing, and equipment that needs careful monitoring. Newer builds in Grandview Hills often have salt systems and automation that need different attention. We tailor service to the individual pool, not a one-size-fits-all checklist.
