Pool Acid Wash in Melissa, TX
Remove stubborn algae stains, hard water scale, and surface discoloration. We safely drain, wash, and restore your Melissa pool's original bright finish without damaging the plaster.
Pool Acid Wash Services in Melissa
Over time, plaster and pebble surfaces absorb minerals and stains that regular scrubbing cannot erase. Our targeted acid washing safely strips away discolored top layers in Melissa homes.

A controlled drain and muriatic acid wash to strip away embedded mineral scale, rust, and organic discoloration across Melissa pool shells.

Concentrated liquid chlorine washes designed to eradicate deep black algae spores embedded inside porous plaster finishes in Melissa.
Green Pool Recovery

Acid Neutralization
We carefully neutralize acidic runoff using soda ash before pumping wastewater out, protecting your Melissa lawn and storm drains.
Startup Chemistry Balancing
After refilling your Melissa pool, we return to add crucial startup chemicals, balancing pH, alkalinity, and calcium hardness.
Materials We Safely Treat
Acid washing is remarkably effective, but it requires precise dilution ratios suited to your specific pool finish. We safely wash traditional white plaster, quartz blends, and aggregate finishes like PebbleTec and Diamond Brite across homes in Liberty and North Creek. Each material reacts differently, and our technicians carefully monitor exposure time to prevent over-etching or plaster pitting.
We do not acid wash fiberglass or vinyl liner pools, as strong acids will degrade those surfaces. For vinyl and fiberglass in Melissa, we provide specialized non-acidic chemical stain removers. When performing an acid wash, we use commercial-grade muriatic acid and industrial soda ash neutralizers, guaranteeing a gleaming finish while safeguarding structural plaster integrity.
How a Pool Acid Wash Visit Works
Assessment & Draining
We verify plaster thickness and structural soundness, then set up submersible pumps to safely drain water from your Melissa pool shell.
Acid Application
Our crew applies a calibrated acid mixture to walls and floor sections, manually scrubbing stubborn stains as the solution lifts discolored top layers.
Neutralize & Rinse
We treat wastewater with soda ash to stop chemical etching immediately, then thoroughly power-wash the entire pool surface clean.
Refill & Balance
Once the pool shell is clean, refilling begins. When full, we return to test your tap water and balance initial water chemistry.
Warning Signs You Need a Pool Acid Wash
Routine pool maintenance cannot resolve deep plaster staining. Watch for these clear indicators that your Melissa pool needs a professional acid wash.
Persistent Algae Stains
Dark green or black algae blemishes that remain stuck to plaster even after repeated shocking and manual scrubbing.
Rough Mineral Buildup
Plaster walls feel coarse like heavy grit sandpaper due to thick calcium scaling from local hard water.
Widespread Plaster Discoloration
Your plaster surface appears dull yellow, gray, or brown from absorbed soil minerals, copper, and organic debris.
Severe Swamp Conditions
Pool water has remained black or dark green for months, leaving thick organic silt that requires a total shell wash.
