Acid wash FAQ

Common questions

How much does a pool acid wash cost in Houston?

It depends on the size of the pool and how much staining, algae and calcium we're dealing with. We'll look at it and give you a clear, free quote up front — no surprises.

Will an acid wash damage my plaster?

An acid wash removes a very thin layer of the plaster surface — that's how it lifts deep stains and calcium. Done correctly it's safe, but a pool can only be acid washed so many times in its life, so we'll tell you honestly whether yours is a good candidate or if resurfacing is the smarter move.

How often should a pool be acid washed?

Not often — typically only every several years, or when staining, algae or calcium scale has built up past what normal cleaning can handle. It's a reset, not routine maintenance.

Can an acid wash fix a green, algae-filled pool?

Yes. When a pool has gone green and chemicals alone won't bring it back, draining it and acid washing the interior strips the algae and stains and gets you back to a clean, swim-ready finish.

Do you have to drain the pool to acid wash it?

A full acid wash requires draining the pool so we can treat the exposed surface. For lighter cases there are no-drain options — we'll recommend whichever fits the condition of your pool.

Why does my Houston pool build up so much calcium and scale?

Our hard water. High calcium in the Houston area leaves scale along the waterline and interior over time, and an acid wash is one of the ways we strip it back off once it's built up.
