Green pool recovery
in Marbella.
Crystal clear in two days.

A green pool almost never needs draining. With shock treatment, flocculant, brushing and continuous filtration the water is swimmable again in about two days.

03 / Options
Available options

Find the option
that suits you best.

Water gone green

The most common case after winter or a few weeks without treatment. There's algae in suspension but the pool itself is sound: sorted in about two days.

Water cloudy or milky

The water isn't green but you can't see the bottom either. It's nearly always the filter or a pH imbalance, not a lack of chlorine.

Pool left abandoned

Months without treatment, a covered floor and sometimes wildlife in it. This takes more days and sometimes draining really is the better option: I'll tell you on the visit.

Green again and again

It turns green over and over despite the chlorine. Usually it's compacted sand, sky-high stabiliser or insufficient flow. I go after the cause.

04 / Price

How much does
recovering a
green pool cost?

It depends how long it's gone untreated and the state of the filter. I give you a fixed quote on the visit, before starting.

The quote you accept is what you pay. No surprises at the end.

How long the water has gone untreated.
The volume of the pool and the state of the filter.
Whether there's sediment and leaves built up on the floor.
Whether the filtration system works or there's a fault to fix first.
Whether recovering the water is worth it or draining works out cheaper.
05 / Signs
When to call

09 / FAQ Frequently asked questions

What people ask
before hiring.

Almost never. Draining a pool carries risks and wastes a lot of water. I only recommend it when it's been abandoned for a very long time or the water is beyond saving.
Usually two days from the shock treatment to swimmable water, with the filtration running continuously in between.
Nearly always low chlorine or a filter that isn't filtering. If the sand is compacted you can add chlorine endlessly and the water will still be green.
Yes, once the water is balanced and the levels are in range. I tell you exactly when it's safe to use.
Not if the cause is fixed. If the problem was the filter or the flow rate, I say so on the visit: recovering the water without sorting that is money wasted.
Yes. In fact recovering it in March or April works out cheaper than waiting until June with the water far gone.
