Green Pool Recovery & Restoration — Sydney

A green pool needs the right treatment plan before work starts. Our experienced technicians assess the pool condition, explain the first visit and get the recovery underway.

Green pool recovery starts from $199 plus chemicals. The initial service includes assessing the pool, treating the water and cleaning the pool and equipment as required. The price varies with the pool size and condition; severely neglected pools are quoted after an on-site look.

Next steps for recovery

We assess the pool condition and discuss the treatment plan, then test and analyse the water chemistry. The recovery can include shock and balancing chemicals, brushing the walls, steps and floor, removing leaves and debris, emptying the skimmer and pump baskets, and backwashing or cleaning the filter as required.

We run and monitor the filtration system, adjust chlorine, pH, alkalinity, stabiliser and salt where applicable, vacuum as required, and check the pump, filter and chlorinator are operating. Before we leave, we explain the next steps for the pool to keep recovering.

What green pool recovery costs

Green pool recovery — from $199 plus chemicals. This is the starting treatment and clean. Chemicals are charged separately because the amount needed depends on the pool water and condition.

Pool size and condition affect the work required. A severely neglected pool is quoted after an on-site look, so the scope is clear before extra work begins.

Prices current 12 September 2026.

Some pools need more than one visit

Some pools require additional visits to achieve and maintain clear water. If your pool needs a follow-up visit, we will advise you after the initial service. Follow-up visits are an additional cost.

That gives the treatment time to work while keeping the next step clear for you.

Keep the pool equipment working while it recovers

Recovery depends on the pool equipment circulating and filtering the water. We check the operation of the pump, filter and chlorinator as part of the visit and report equipment issues or recommended repairs.

If a pump, filter, chlorinator or another equipment-pad component needs repair, see our pool equipment and pump repair service. For regular visits after recovery, see our pool maintenance visit options.
