Pool servicing in Greenwich

Acid washing, equipment installation and pressure testing in Greenwich. Older pools and steep driveways both change what is practical, so Andy looks before quoting.
Acid washing and equipment installation are the two jobs that come up most in Greenwich, and both trace back to age. The peninsula between Gore Cove and the Lane Cove River holds some of the oldest housing in the Lane Cove Council area, and a fair share of the pools reflect that: concrete and pebblecrete surfaces that have been in the ground a long time, and equipment on its second or third replacement.
Two conditions come up often enough here to be worth planning around. On the streets that fall steeply toward the water, getting equipment to the plant room is a genuine constraint on what is practical. And on the properties closest to open water, salt in the air is hard on heater casings, pump housings and any exposed metal fitting. Both are worth checking, neither is true of the whole suburb. Plenty of Greenwich is level, well back from the water, and no different to service than anywhere else.
What Andy does in Greenwich
- Acid washing for older concrete and pebblecrete surfaces
- Equipment quoted around the actual access route, and sited clear of the salt air
- Seasonal shutdown and start-up
- Leak detection and pipe pressure testing
Pool services in Greenwich
Acid washing
The main job on the older surfaces around here. Drain, pressure-wash off the built-up sludge, acid-wash the surface, then refill and rebalance. Three to four hours on site and a tired surface comes back close to new. From $1,100, well short of what resurfacing costs.
Equipment installation
On a steep block the access decides which units are practical, and on an exposed deck the siting decides how long they last. Andy sorts both at the quote rather than on the day. Astron, Zodiac, BWT, Pentair, Jandy, Waterco and Aquaheat.
Winterising and summerising
Shutting a pool down properly for winter is worth more here than most places, because a plant deck near open water does not benefit from equipment sitting idle and wet for five months. Chemistry dropped, cover on, equipment shut down and protected, then brought back up in early October.
Pipe pressure testing
Older pools with original pipework are where hidden leaks turn up. Andy isolates and pressure-tests each line to find the fault before anything gets dug up, which on a terraced block matters a great deal. From $350. Most leaks are isolated within an hour.

“Andy did an amazing job refurbishing our pool - he was honest and did the work at an amazing price. Highly recommend Aqua Andy”
