Questions about this service
Can you clear a pool where I cannot even see the top step?
Yes. Even heavily overgrown, dark green or brown pools can be pulled back with proper shock and floc treatment.
Will this ruin my pool liner?
No, all chemicals are predissolved and distributed evenly so no raw bleaching agent sits against your liner surface.
How many visits does a recovery take?
A standard recovery takes two to three visits over a four-day window to allow proper chemical reaction and settling.
How Our Visits Work
-
1
Initial Assessment and Chemical Shock
We balance pH down to make sanitiser potent, then introduce a heavy unstabilised shock dose to kill suspended algae cells.
-
2
Flocculation Settling
We dose a specialist pool flocculant, circulate briefly, and shut the system down overnight so dead matter binds and drops.
-
3
Vacuuming to Waste
We return to vacuum the thick sludge carpet on the pool floor straight out to the drain, keeping your filter media pristine.
-
4
Final Clarification and Test
We run secondary filtration with an enzyme clarifier and complete a full balance test once the bottom drains are clearly visible.
What Pool Owners Say
Our outdoor pool suffered from cloudy water every time the oak trees dropped pollen. Julian arrived on time, sorted the sand filter, and the water has stayed clear all through summer.
Marcus B., Guildford, GBThe spring opening was handled cleanly. No mess on the York stone copings and the chemical balance was spot on. Highly recommend their bank transfer invoicing.
Eleanor P., Sevenoaks, GBPunctual weekly service. They vacuum the deep end thoroughly and always leave the plant room tidy. Reliable team.
