Reading the water first isn't optional to us.
Swimming Pool Cleaning in Al Rimal, Jeddah
Al Rimal is a new southern subdivision still under construction, with vacant plots between new villas and buildings. Pools here are newly built and water needs intensive early treatment because construction dust and soil enter every day. Water may turn green or cloudy rapidly.

What changes about swimming pool cleaning in Al Rimal
Construction dust enters pools continuously. The filter clogs rapidly and water needs frequent testing. Newly built pools here require more attention than established districts. For the method itself, see how we approach swimming pool cleaning.
-
The first reason
Heavy construction dust clouds the water constantly
Ongoing building means heavy dust enters the water daily. The filter needs frequent backwashing and may not be enough alone. Water may appear cloudy despite the filter running. We test the water and determine whether additional chemical treatment is needed.
-
The second reason
Brand new pools need intensive early treatment
New pools accumulate heavy dust in the first year. Water may turn green from algae triggered by construction and humidity together. Initial treatment may require stronger concentration than routine maintenance.
-
The third reason
New pipework can release mineral deposits
New pipes may leave metallic residue in the water. Walls may appear white or rusty from these deposits. We test the water and use a treatment that removes the deposits.
What swimming pool cleaning covers in Al Rimal
A subdivision in the far south of Jeddah between Al Lith Road and the Ring Road. An area under development with ongoing construction and many vacant plots between newly built homes.
-
Water chemistry tested first
Construction dust enters water continuously so testing must be frequent and precise here, as chemistry changes rapidly.
-
Brushing walls and waterline
Walls and steps collect heavy dust, so brushing may need more frequent cycles than in settled districts.
-
Vacuuming the pool floor
The filter clogs very quickly from construction dust, so backwash cycles may need to run frequently.
-
Skimmer and baskets cleaned
Skimmer, baskets and strainers fill rapidly with construction dust, so cleaning them must be frequent.
-
Filter backwash
Backwash cycles for the filter need close monitoring because dust can redeposit quickly and may need consecutive washes.
-
Chemical balance reset
Chemical balance requires very frequent testing here because construction accelerates water chemistry 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.
The character of Al Rimal
New development: ongoing construction and vacant plots between the homes
A new development district means ongoing construction and heavy dust entering every pool daily. Water here needs stronger treatment than established neighbourhoods and more frequent testing. The filter clogs fast and chemistry shifts constantly, so we monitor this carefully.
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 South Jeddah
South Jeddah runs from the port and the industrial city down towards Al Khumrah, and homes here sit between the sea and the heavy goods roads. The dust is darker and oilier than in the north, a mix of diesel soot and workshop grit, and it clings to net curtains, window sills and the tops of kitchen cupboards. Floors in the older low rise housing are often plain cement or ceramic tile that darkens where soot is walked in. Humidity from the coast adds mildew in bathrooms and a musty smell in stored fabrics.
Questions about swimming pool cleaning in Al Rimal
The water is very cloudy despite a brand new filter; what causes this?
Construction dust is so fine that standard filters may not capture all of it. We test the water and identify the particle type. Additional chemical treatment may be needed to clear fine dust.
The water is green and construction is ongoing; when will it improve?
Algae grows fast when construction dust and humidity combine. Strong treatment now can stop the growth. As construction finishes nearby, the pool will improve steadily.
How often must the filter be backwashed in a construction zone?
The filter may need backwashing every few days in early construction. We measure filter pressure and recommend the schedule for your pool.
White crusty deposits coat the walls; is this from new pipes?
White deposits can come from new pipework or minerals in the water. We test the water and identify the source, then use the appropriate treatment.
Should the pool be drained sooner because of construction dust?
Not necessarily a full drain. Strong chemical treatment may solve the problem. We test first and determine whether draining is actually needed.
When will the water stay clean permanently in Al Rimal?
As construction around the pools finishes, maintenance becomes easier. For now we use strong treatment and frequent testing. Water is safe to swim in when chemistry is balanced, despite ongoing construction.
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 Rimal 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 Rimal.
