What a pool maintenance visit includes
- Testing and adjusting alkalinity and pH
- Testing and adjusting chlorine levels
- Treatment to stop algae and bacteria from growing
- Scrubbing the floor and wall tiles to keep the surface smooth
- Removing leaves and debris from the water and emptying skimmer baskets
- Checking and cleaning filters to clear blockages
- Checking pumps, heaters and other pool equipment
Water chemistry: typical targets
For many residential pools, common targets are alkalinity of 80 to 120 ppm, pH of 7.2 to 7.8 and chlorine of 1.0 to 2.0 ppm. The right values vary with the pool, the sanitiser and local guidance, so we test your pool rather than apply one number to every pool. In strong sun, chlorine burns off faster, and many pools use a stabiliser (cyanuric acid) to slow this. Ask your technician what suits your pool.
How Dubai’s climate affects your pool
- Summer heat: warm water helps algae grow faster, so water needs closer checking.
- Dust and sand: after dust storms the filter and skimmers fill with debris and need cleaning.
- Humidity and evaporation: water levels drop quickly in the heat. A falling level is not always a leak, so ask for a check if it drops fast.
- Winter: cooler water is when many owners look at heating or cooling equipment such as heat pumps and chillers.
- After long periods unused: a pool that has been empty or neglected may need a full clean before it is safe to use again.
Pool equipment we check
A pool is a small electromechanical system. We look at the circulation pump, the filter (sand filter, backwashing and media), skimmers, the heater or heat pump, and salt chlorinators where fitted. Faulty equipment is one of the main reasons for green or cloudy water. If a part needs repair or replacement, we explain the options before going ahead.

Advertised regular cleaning plans in October 2026 start from roughly AED 349 to AED 499 per month for two visits a week for a standard pool, and larger or luxury villa pools cost more.

Swimming pool maintenance FAQs for Dubai
How much does it cost to maintain a pool in Dubai?
Advertised regular cleaning plans start from roughly AED 349 to AED 499 per month for two visits a week for a standard pool, and larger pools cost more. The price depends on size, visit frequency and whether chemicals are included. Send us your pool details on WhatsApp.
How often should a swimming pool be serviced?
Many villa owners choose weekly visits. Busy pools, very hot weeks and dusty periods may need more. We advise once we know your pool and how it is used.
Can I clean my pool myself?
You can skim leaves and empty baskets yourself. Water testing, balancing, filter care and equipment checks need the right test kits and knowledge, and mistakes lead to green water or damaged equipment.
Why is my pool water green or cloudy?
Green water usually points to algae and cloudy water to unbalanced chemistry or a weak filter. A technician has to check the water and the filter to find the cause. Send us a photo on WhatsApp and we will tell you the next steps.
Is my pool leaking or is it just evaporation?
Dubai heat makes water levels drop quickly. If the level falls faster than you expect, ask for a check. We can look at the pool, the equipment and the surrounding area to find out.
Do you maintain commercial pools?
Yes. We work on residential and commercial pools. Tell us the pool size and how it is used and we will confirm we can help.
Can you repair pump, filter or heater faults?
We check pumps, filters and heaters as part of maintenance. If a part needs repair or replacement, we explain the options before going ahead.
