Pool Acid Washing

Pool Acid Washing Services

A swimming pool is meant to be a refreshing escape, but over time stains, algae, and mineral buildup can leave pool surfaces looking dull, discolored, or unsafe. Pool acid washing is a deep cleaning process designed to restore the appearance of your pool by removing stubborn surface stains and buildup that regular cleaning cannot eliminate.

An acid wash works by carefully stripping a very thin layer of plaster from the pool surface. This process removes stains caused by algae, chlorine, calcium, copper, magnesium, and other mineral deposits—revealing a clean layer of plaster underneath and restoring the pool’s original color and finish.

Why Choose an Acid Wash for Your Pool?

Pool acid washing is an effective solution for:

• Algae stains that won’t brush away
• Calcium scale and mineral buildup
• Copper and metal discoloration
• Dark streaks, scum lines, and surface staining
• Dull or uneven pool finishes

When performed by professionals, an acid wash provides a thorough, controlled cleaning that revitalizes your pool’s surface without causing damage.

Benefits of Pool Acid Washing

• Destroys algae embedded in pool surfaces
• Removes mineral and metal stains
• Restores original pool color and brightness
• Improves overall appearance and cleanliness
• Safe for most pool surface types when done correctly

Acid washing is especially beneficial for plaster pools and can be performed on a variety of finishes, including white plaster, colored plaster, black plaster, brick, and many name-brand pool finishes.

Is Acid Washing Safe for Your Pool?

When done properly, acid washing does not damage your pool surface. The process is carefully controlled to remove only a minimal layer of plaster while preserving the integrity of the pool finish. This makes acid washing a safe and effective option for restoring pools that have accumulated years of stains or algae buildup.

Your pool doesn’t need to look severely neglected to benefit from an acid wash. Many homeowners choose acid washing simply to achieve a brighter, cleaner, and more visually appealing pool.
