Pool Acid Wash Services in Bonita Springs
From deep stain removal to calcium scale treatment, our team restores your pool surface with professional acid washing tailored to Bonita Springs conditions.
Stain Removal
Organic and metal stains from leaves, fertilizer, and well water embed deep in your pool surface. An acid wash strips those stains away for a fresh, clean look.
Algae Stain Treatment
When algae turns your pool green or black, the discoloration often remains even after the algae is killed. Acid washing removes the embedded algae stains completely.
Calcium Scale Removal
Hard water in Bonita Springs leaves white calcium deposits along your waterline and tile. Acid dissolves these mineral deposits that brushing and chemicals cannot remove.
Sunscreen and Oil Stain Removal
Body oils, sunscreen, and lotions build up on your pool surface over time and create a grimy film. An acid wash cuts through the buildup and restores the original finish.
Full Pool Refurbishment
Sometimes a pool needs a fresh start after years of use or neglect. An acid wash resets the surface so your water looks clear and inviting from the first refill.
Surface Prep for Refinishing
If you are planning to resurface your pool, an acid wash prepares the existing surface by removing contaminants and creating a clean base for the new finish to bond.
Surfaces and Chemicals We Work With
We acid wash all common pool surface materials found in Bonita Springs area pools, including white plaster, colored plaster, pebble aggregate, quartz, and bead finishes. Each surface type requires a different acid concentration and scrubbing technique. Plaster finishes are the most common and respond well to a standard muriatic acid solution. Pebble and aggregate finishes, popular in communities like Bonita Bay and Pelican Landing, are more durable and can handle a stronger solution, while quartz and bead finishes need a gentler approach to avoid damaging the surface.
We use muriatic acid for most acid washes because it is effective on tough stains and calcium scale. For delicate surfaces or lighter staining, we may use a milder acid blend. We mix the acid to the correct dilution for your surface, apply it in controlled sections, scrub with acid resistant brushes, and neutralize and rinse thoroughly before refilling. Safety is a priority on every job, and our CPO certified team follows proper handling procedures for all chemicals.

We assess your surface, give you a clear quote, and restore your pool step by step. Here is what to expect.
Surface Assessment
We inspect your pool surface, identify the type and depth of the staining, and determine whether an acid wash is the right solution or if a simpler treatment would work for your Bonita Springs pool.
Written Quote

Drain and Acid Wash
We drain the pool safely, checking the hydrostatic relief valve for Bonita Springs' high water table, apply the acid solution in sections, scrub the surface, and neutralize the acid.
Refill and Balance
We rinse the surface thoroughly, refill the pool, and balance the water chemistry so your pool is clean, clear, and ready to swim in as soon as possible.
Warning Signs You Need a Pool Acid Wash
Stubborn stains and scale buildup do not go away on their own. Here is how to tell if an acid wash would help your Bonita Springs pool.
- Your pool surface has dark stains that do not fade after chlorine shock treatment or weeks of regular cleaning, which means the stain has penetrated below the surface.
- You see white crusty deposits along the waterline tile or around the pool steps, which is calcium scale that only an acid wash can fully dissolve.
- Your pool turned green or black from algae and the surface still looks discolored after the algae is treated and the water clears, which means algae stains remain.
- Your pool surface looks dull, rough, or aged even though the water chemistry is balanced, which means an acid wash can brighten and refresh the finish.
