Swimming Pool Cleaning in Al Majid, Jeddah
Al Majid is a small district in east Jeddah with simple shops at street level and modest villas above, and pools here sit near Wadi Al Ghawla and land adjacent to the Asfan road. Water may carry sediment from the wadi and surrounding soil, and chemistry requires careful calculation because the environment affects water quality from the first fill.

What changes about swimming pool cleaning in Al Majid
Pools in Al Majid may experience seasonal variation in water quality because of the nearby wadi and damp soil. Rainy season may raise mineral and moisture levels, and summer means clearer water but heavier use. For the method itself, see the full swimming pool cleaning page.
-
The first reason
Nearby Wadi Al Ghawla affects water quality seasonally
Proximity to the wadi means soil moisture and minerals enter water at varying seasonal levels. During rainy periods, minerals and sediment may be higher. Chemistry needs seasonal adjustment rather than a single year-round formula.
-
The second reason
Low-lying ground around pools means extra moisture and faster algae
Al Majid sits in terrain where ground level may be slightly lower, and moisture lingers around pools longer than in higher neighbourhoods. This creates ideal conditions for algae and fungi to establish on walls and steps faster, and chlorine may need higher concentration.
-
The third reason
Simple villas need careful treatment that protects fragile surfaces
Many homes in Al Majid are modest and possibly decades old, and pools may be small with simple ceramic walls. Aggressive brushing and strong chemistry may damage surfaces easily. Treatment must balance cleaning power with material protection.
What swimming pool cleaning covers in Al Majid
Al Majid is a small residential district in east Jeddah within the built up area extending toward Asfan, one of the districts with a simple residential character, in the general area close to the University of Jeddah road and Wadi Al Ghawla.
-
Water chemistry tested first
Water from boreholes may carry seasonal minerals; initial testing must assess local characteristics, not just standard chlorine and pH readings. Baseline establishment guides later protocol.
-
Brushing walls and waterline
Simple ceramic walls need careful gentle brushing; deposits are removed cautiously so fragile materials are not damaged. Consistency matters more than force.
-
Vacuuming the pool floor
Floor vacuuming must be deep and weekly because moisture and minerals accumulate faster in damp seasons. Sediment load is higher near the wadi during rainy periods.
-
Skimmer and baskets cleaned
Skimmers and baskets carry mineral and organic deposits; weekly cleaning is necessary to remove crusty buildup and fallen leaves from surrounding land.
-
Filter backwash
The filter requires weekly backwashing at minimum, and may need more frequent backwashing in damp seasons when sediment load is higher.
-
Chemical balance reset
Chemical balance needs seasonal adjustment: higher chlorine in summer and damp periods, lower chlorine in cold dry winter, and more frequent pH testing as soil moisture changes.
Not included
- Repairing pumps, filters or pool plumbing
- Fixing cracks, leaks or replacing tile
- Draining and acid-washing an empty pool, that is a separate service
- Removing permanent staining from metals or long-neglected plaster
How a pool is actually cleaned
-
1
Test before we add anything
pH, sanitiser and hardness are read at the start.
-
2
Skim and net first
Floating leaves and debris come off before we brush.
-
3
Brush walls, steps and waterline
Algae and the oily waterline film cling to the surfaces.
-
4
Vacuum the floor
Silt settles in the deep end and the corners the return jets never reach.
-
5
Clean the filter and baskets
The skimmer and pump baskets are cleared and the filter checked or backwashed.
-
6
Balance, dose, and walk it with you
With the water clean, we balance and dose, then walk the pool with you before leaving.

Why us for this service in particular
A full team arrives together
The company runs a large crew, and we send a team rather than one person.
Our equipment, not rented
Pumps, vacuum heads and the test kit come with the team.
We say no when it's no
If the pump or the plumbing is the real problem, we tell you.
From our work
Photographs from real jobs carried out by the crew.
The job isn't closed until you approve it
The commitment is simple enough to actually keep: we don't leave until you've seen the result and had your say on it.
The character of Al Majid
Mixed district: shops at street level with homes above them
Mixed means simple shops at street level and modest villas above, with small pools and ordinary materials. Proximity to the wadi means seasonal moisture and minerals, and chemistry requires precise calculation to balance cleaning effectiveness with protection of simple surfaces from damage.
Questions about swimming pool cleaning in Al Majid
Does proximity to Wadi Al Ghawla affect water quality year-round or only seasonally?
Mostly seasonal impact. Rainy periods may raise minerals and moisture, and summer means clearer water but heavier use. Chemistry should adapt to seasonal changes rather than follow a single fixed protocol.
Does moisture around the pool mean algae grows faster here than in drier neighbourhoods?
Yes, sustained moisture around the basin creates ideal algae and fungal conditions. Chlorine may need higher concentration, and brushing may be more frequent than in drier districts.
Is borehole water in Al Majid different from water in the rest of east Jeddah?
It may differ slightly because soil composition near the wadi influences mineral content. Initial testing is important to establish local characteristics before routine treatment starts.
Do simple ceramic walls need lighter brushing than marble surfaces?
Yes, brushing must be gentler and more careful to avoid damaging simple ceramic or painted surfaces. Effectiveness comes from consistency, not aggression.
Is seasonal treatment adjustment necessary in Al Majid or is one fixed formula sufficient?
Seasonal adjustment is better. Winter and summer differ in use patterns and weather, and chemistry should adapt. A single fixed formula may not suit both cold winter and hot summer equally.
How often per year do Al Majid pools need complete deep treatment cycles?
At least every three weeks, potentially more in summer when use is heavier and algae grows faster. Weekly testing is essential year-round.
Do you repair pumps or filters?
No. We clean and balance the water and clear the baskets and filter, but repairing pumps, motors or plumbing is a separate trade. If we find a mechanical fault, we tell you what it is so you can get it fixed.
Do you drain the pool to clean it?
Not for a normal clean. Vacuuming, brushing and balancing are all done with the pool full. Draining and acid-washing is only for specific cases like heavy staining or a full reset, and that is a separate service we'd discuss first.
How much does swimming pool cleaning in Al Majid cost?
It is set after the inspection, because it follows the size of the job, the materials involved and their condition. Send photos on WhatsApp and we will give you an estimate before we reach Al Majid.
