    Green Pool Cleaning That Fixes the Cause, Not Just the Colour

    A green pool is an algae bloom, and in a Melbourne summer it can happen in three or four hot days if chlorine drops or the pump stops. Sometimes the green tinge is metal oxidising from poor chemistry instead.

    Our technicians specialise in green pool recovery. We test to find the real cause, shock and treat the algae, brush every surface, vacuum the dead algae out and deep clean the filter, which is where most repeat blooms come from. We use eco-friendly algaecides and clarifiers where they suit your pool.

    With years of experience restoring pools around Glen Waverley, we deliver proven results, upfront pricing and a pool you can trust to stay clear.
