Algae & Green Pool Recovery in Houston, TX

A green or algae-covered pool needs more than a quick shock. We scrub away algae, dirt and calcium buildup from walls and tile, then test and balance the water until it is clear again.

Green water usually means the chemistry has been out of balance for a while, not just a day. Getting it back to swim-ready condition starts with a full inspection, so we treat the actual cause instead of just masking the color.

Recovery is not a single visit and done. We keep testing and adjusting throughout the process, because algae can rebound quickly if the chemistry is not held steady while the pool clears.

Thorough cleaning and chemical treatment clears algae and keeps it from coming back. Once your pool is back to swim-ready, we can set you up on a scheduled maintenance plan so it stays that way.

A green pool is rarely just cosmetic. Algae growth can clog filters, stain plaster and tile, and mask problems with circulation or equipment that let it take hold in the first place.

We would rather fix the underlying cause than treat a green pool as a one-time event, which is why a recovery call almost always comes with an honest conversation about what let it happen and how to prevent a repeat.

What's included

• Full inspection of water and surfacesWe start by identifying exactly what type of algae and how much buildup we are dealing with.
• Scrubbing to remove algae, dirt and calcium buildupChemicals alone rarely clear a heavily affected surface without physical scrubbing first.
• Targeted chemical treatmentWe match treatment strength to the severity of the bloom instead of a one-size-fits-all shock.
• Filtration and re-testing until clearClearing water takes filtration time, and we retest along the way to track progress.
• Rebalancing to swim-ready levelsOnce clear, we bring pH, chlorine and alkalinity back to safe, comfortable ranges.
• A follow-up plan to keep it clearWe can set up scheduled maintenance so the pool does not slide back into the same condition.
