Swimming Pool Cleaning in Al Murjan, Jeddah
Al Murjan is a small coastal district on the north corniche of Jeddah, low density villas and flats directly facing the sea. Salt in the air affects the water differently than inland areas: alkalinity drifts high fast, and chlorine reacts with salt in ways that reduce its strength. Early testing catches this shift before the eye sees the water change.

What changes about swimming pool cleaning in Al Murjan
Salt air from the sea settles on every outdoor surface daily, and high humidity affects chemistry constantly, especially in hot humid summer months when evaporation is slow. For the method itself, see our swimming pool cleaning service in detail.
-
The first reason
Salt air shifting pH high every day
Directly facing the sea, salt particles in the air enter the water constantly and drive alkalinity upward. This is completely different from inland villas where change is slow. Here, pH may drift high in just days, and rebalancing requires more acid than inland areas need.
-
The second reason
High humidity slowing water loss
Coastal humidity means pool water evaporates slowly, concentrating salt and minerals in the remaining water. The filter needs frequent cleaning because humidity causes minerals and salt to build up fast on the media and in pipework.
-
The third reason
Humidity speeding scale on marble and glass
High humidity keeps marble and glass surfaces damp longer, which speeds salt and lime buildup. Brushing must be gentle because coastal marble erodes faster than inland marble, and frequent light cleaning is better than occasional hard scrubbing.
What swimming pool cleaning covers in Al Murjan
Al Murjan is a small coastal district on the north corniche west of Al Basatin, with villas and flats close to the sea, low density housing with a small mall and commercial street.
-
Water chemistry tested first
Testing Al Murjan water must focus on alkalinity and pH because salt drives alkalinity high fast.
-
Brushing walls and waterline
Brushing coastal pool walls must be gentle because marble erodes quickly from salt and humidity.
-
Vacuuming the pool floor
Vacuuming the floor reveals layers of salt and minerals building up much faster than in inland districts.
-
Skimmer and baskets cleaned
Skimmer and basket cleaning must be frequent because salt and humidity mean rapid mineral and debris accumulation.
-
Filter backwash
Backwashing may need weekly attention because salt and minerals quickly clog the filter media.
-
Chemical balance reset
Chemical balance must focus on adding acid to counter the constant rise in alkalinity from continuous salt intrusion.
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.
What is different about West Jeddah
West Jeddah faces the sea along the Corniche, and the flats and towers along it live with salt in the air all year. Salt settles on glass as a haze that plain water spreads rather than removes, and it works into balcony railings, outdoor fabric and the metal of window frames. Indoors, humidity keeps carpets and curtains slightly damp, so they hold odours and dust longer than in drier districts, and bathroom grout and shower glass show scale quickly. Wooden floors and doors swell a little in the wetter months.
Questions about swimming pool cleaning in Al Murjan
Does salt from the sea enter the pool water directly?
Yes, continuously. Salt air carries particles that enter the water on the wind. Testing reveals this quickly and pH correction becomes a necessary routine.
Does high humidity affect water chemistry?
Severely. Humidity slows evaporation, raising salt and mineral concentration. This means pH may need correction more often, and you may need to dilute the water sometimes instead of just adding chemicals.
Does marble and tile in Al Murjan erode faster?
Yes. Salt and humidity together speed erosion and scale buildup on marble. Brushing must be very gentle and frequent rather than infrequent and hard.
How often does a coastal pool need pH adjustment?
Usually every week or two. Precise testing tells you exactly when to add acid, not guessing and over correcting.
Does the filter clog faster in Al Murjan than inland?
Yes. Salt and mineral buildup on filter media happens much faster, and backwashing may need weekly attention.
Should a coastal pool be partially drained sometimes?
You may need to drain part of it every year or two to reduce salt and mineral concentration. But this decision rests on precise testing, not guesswork.
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 Murjan 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 Murjan.
