Pool Acid Washing Services in Melbourne, Florida

Surface Assessment

Not every stain calls for acid. We inspect your plaster closely, gauge the staining and buildup, and confirm whether a wash is the right treatment, so you get a solution matched to the surface rather than an unnecessary one.

Pool Draining

An acid wash requires an empty pool. We drain the water carefully and responsibly, managing the process correctly so the surface is fully exposed and ready for treatment without harm to your pool shell or the surrounding area.

Acid Wash Application

This is skilled, careful work. We apply the acid solution evenly across the surface and control the reaction precisely, stripping stains and discoloration while removing only the thin layer needed to reveal the fresh plaster beneath.

Stain and Calcium Removal

Hard water leaves stubborn deposits behind. We target mineral scale, embedded algae stains, and discoloration that normal cleaning cannot touch, clearing them away so your surface loses the dull, aged look that buildup gives it over the years.

Neutralizing and Rinsing

Safety and thoroughness matter here. After the wash, we neutralize the acid properly and rinse the surface completely, ensuring no residue remains so the pool is safe to refill and your finish is left clean and sound.

Refill and Rebalancing

The job is not done until the water is right. We refill the pool and balance the chemistry from scratch, bringing everything to proper targets so your freshly restored pool is clean, safe, and ready to enjoy.

FAQ's

Heavy Surface Staining

Some discoloration goes deeper than dirt. When your plaster shows dark blotches, rust-colored marks, or spreading stains that brushing no longer touches, the top layer has absorbed the damage, and only an acid wash can strip it away to reveal the clean surface underneath.

Algae That Keeps Returning

Persistent algae is a warning sign. If green or black patches come back within days of every cleaning, the growth has rooted into the plaster itself, and clearing the surface layer through acid washing removes the embedded algae that ordinary treatment simply cannot reach.

A Green Pool That Won't Clear

Sometimes chemicals are not enough. When a pool has sat neglected and the water stays green no matter how much you balance and treat it, draining and acid washing the stained surface is often the only way to truly reset the pool and start fresh.

Rough, Gritty Texture

Your pool should feel smooth underfoot. When the surface turns rough, chalky, or gritty from years of buildup and wear, an acid wash clears the hardened layer that causes it, leaving plaster that feels clean and comfortable again instead of coarse and worn.

Dull, Gray Appearance

Bright plaster fades over time. When your once-white surface has gone gray, cloudy, or lifeless despite regular cleaning, the dullness lives in the stained top layer, and acid washing exposes the fresh plaster beneath to restore that vivid, like-new brightness.

Stubborn Mineral Deposits

Hard water leaves its mark. When calcium scale and mineral buildup cling to your surface and resist every brushing effort, an acid wash dissolves and removes those tough deposits, clearing the crusty patches that dull your pool and refuse to budge any other way.

I Know Water

I spent my career as a U.S. Navy submariner, so water is something I've had a feel for my whole life. That instinct is what I bring to every pool I touch, and it's why I've built this business on knowing what's happening in your water before it becomes a problem.

Salt Systems Are My Specialty

Salt systems are what I know best, and most pool guys in Brevard treat them like an afterthought. I understand how the cells wear, how the chemistry drifts, and what actually keeps a salt pool running clean instead of just getting by until the next service call.

41 Years on This Water

I started in the pool industry in 1985, and I've spent those years working pools right here on the Space Coast. I know what our humidity, our sun, and our storm season do to a pool and to the equipment running it, because I've been dealing with it longer than most of my competition has been in business.

A Veteran and a Family Behind the Work

This is a veteran owned, family operated business, and my name is on every job. When you call, you get me. That's the whole reason my customers stay with me and tell their neighbors about us.
