Kidney pool · green pool recovery

Owners had been away. Filter was off, algae took over. Full recovery: shock dose, brush, vacuum to waste, balance, filter clean. Pool was swimmable again within the week.

Fibreglass family pool · regular service

Chemistry had drifted between visits and algae was getting a foothold. Standard Basic Pool Service: brush, vacuum, chemistry rebalance, filter wash. Photo report sent that afternoon.

Pool gone green?

Green pool recovery — $300, four hours on-site.

Algae bloom is fixable. The earlier you call, the faster the turnaround. A pool that's just tinting green can be swimmable inside 48 hours. Full bloom takes a week-ish plus chemicals. We deal with both as part of the Basic Pool Service price tier.

While you wait for the visit: if you have a floating chlorine dispenser, drop a tablet in and run your pump as long as you can — buys time and slows the spread.

Photo + chemistry report in your inbox.

You don't have to be home for a Basic Pool Service. Most clients just leave the side gate open or share a code. When we're done you get the same email every time — photos of the pool, the chemistry read, and any notes worth knowing for next time.

If something's drifting, we flag it in the report so you can decide whether it warrants a callout or just a watch-and-wait.

Booking and cadence

How the booking works, and how often to book it.

A pool service Townsville homeowners book through this page is the standard recurring visit, not a quote-on-inspection job. The tier your pool falls into sets both the price and the time we hold on site — an hour and a half up to 35,000 litres, two hours to 65,000, four hours to 100,000. Nothing on the checklist changes between tiers. A bigger body of water just takes longer to test, brush, vacuum and balance properly.

How often is the question we get most. Through the build-up and the wet, roughly October to April, fortnightly is the sensible default for a Townsville backyard. Four-weekly holds up fine once the heat drops off. Weekly earns its keep if the pool sits under a mango or a stand of palms, if it's a holiday rental turning over guests, or if the family is in it most afternoons. If you're not sure which way to go, start with a $35 consultation and we'll measure the pool and tell you straight.

You don't need to be home for any of it. Most regulars leave the side gate unlocked or pass on a code, and the photo and chemistry report reaches your inbox by the end of the day. If a reading is drifting or the chlorinator cell is starting to scale, it goes in the report with a note on whether it wants attention now or just watching.

Chemicals sit outside the visit price and are billed at supplier cost. We show you what the water needs and get your okay before anything goes in, so there's no hardware-store mark-up riding on top. Reschedules are free up to twelve hours before the visit — past that the day's route is already set, so a small fee applies.

Every pool service Townsville visit is mobile: the van comes to you, right across the city. The same visit covers body corporate and corporate pools, though if there's more than one body of water on the site, or the pool holds more than 100,000 litres, get in touch and we'll quote it properly rather than force it into a tier. Otherwise, book a pool service Townsville-wide online and we'll confirm the time by phone or email inside one business day.

Service FAQs

Quick questions, before you book.

How often should I book a Basic Pool Service in Townsville?

Most North Queensland pools sit happiest on a fortnightly visit through summer (Oct–Apr) and four-weekly through cooler months. Weekly makes sense for holiday rentals, family pools with heavy use, or anything under a big mango or palm canopy that drops debris constantly.

Do I need to be home for the visit?

No. Most regulars leave a side gate unlocked or share a code. We send before-and-after photos with the report so you know exactly what was done.

What chemicals do you use — and are they included?

Standard chlorine, pH adjusters (acid, soda ash), stabiliser, salt. Chemicals are billed separately at supplier cost — we show you what's needed and authorise it before adding anything. No hardware-store mark-up.

What if my pool's bigger than 100,000 L?

That's a tailored quote rather than a tier — get in touch with the rough dimensions and we'll work out timing and pricing.

Can I reschedule once I've booked?

Yes — free reschedules up to 12 hours before the visit. Inside that window a small reschedule fee applies because we've already routed the day.

Do you handle body corporate / corporate pools?

Yes — same standards, same chemistry approach. For multiple bodies of water on one site or a different reporting cadence, get in touch for a tailored quote.
