About water testing and balancing
Water testing checks chlorine, pH, alkalinity, calcium and stabiliser, then the technician adds what the pool needs to keep it safe and comfortable to swim in. Balanced water also protects the surface and equipment from damage. Ask for the readings so you understand what your pool needs.
Quick answers
How much does regular pool cleaning cost?+
A regular pool service commonly runs $40 to $80 per visit for cleaning and water balancing, with chemicals sometimes charged on top. Weekly or fortnightly plans usually work out cheaper per visit than one-off cleans. Confirm whether chemicals are included in the quoted price.
How much does it cost to fix a green pool?+
Green pool recovery often costs $200 to $500 depending on how bad the algae is and how many visits and chemicals it takes, and severe cases needing a drain cost more. It usually takes several days of filtering and dosing, not a single visit, to get the water clear and safe.
How often should a pool be serviced?+
Weekly in summer and fortnightly in the cooler months is a common routine for most home pools, with more frequent checks during heavy use or hot weather. Regular small visits prevent the water going green, which is far cheaper than recovering a neglected pool.
Why does my pool keep going green?+
A pool goes green when algae takes hold, usually from low chlorine, poor filtration, an unbalanced pH or a failing pump or chlorinator. Fixing it means clearing the algae and then addressing the underlying cause, otherwise it comes straight back. A technician can identify which it is.
