Green Pool Clean-Up in Winter Park, FL
Pool turned green or cloudy? Southern Pool Care clears green pools in Winter Park and gets them back to clean, balanced water.
Winter Park pools under mature oaks and near the Chain of Lakes face heavy leaf loads and storm debris. Older filtration systems can fall behind fast in summer. We clear the water, check the equipment and set the pool up to stay clear.

Green Pools Around Winter Park
Winter Park pools sit under some of the oldest tree canopy in Central Florida. Homes on the Chain of Lakes, around Lake Virginia, Lake Osceola and Lake Maitland, and in older neighborhoods such as Olde Winter Park and Windsong, often have unscreened pools that collect leaves, Spanish moss and oak tassels in spring. Once that organic load builds up, chlorine runs out fast.
Many Winter Park pools are also older, with plaster and tile that need gentler handling than a new build. We clear the water without harsh shortcuts that etch older finishes, clean or replace the filter media, and send a photo report when it is done. If the pool needs more than a clean-up, we will tell you what and why.
If you have just bought a home in Winter Park and the pool came with it, a clean-up is also a good time to learn what you have. We note the age and condition of the pump, filter, heater and finish in our photo report, so you know what is working, what is near the end of its life and what can wait.

Winter Park Green Pool FAQs
How much does a green pool clean-up cost in Winter Park?
Every green pool is different, so we quote from photos. Text a photo of your pool to (407) 385-0933 and we will send you a price the same day.
How long does it take to clear a green pool?
Most green pools clear within a few days. Heavily neglected pools with lots of debris can take longer and may need a filter clean or media replacement.
Is it safe to swim in a green pool?
No. Algae can hide bacteria and makes it hard to see the bottom. Wait until the water is clear and the chemistry is balanced.
Do you clean pools at homes that are for sale or vacant?
Yes. We work with homeowners, landlords and real estate agents in Winter Park to get pools clear before showings, closings or move-in.
How do I keep my pool from turning green again?
Weekly service. Our all-inclusive weekly service runs $200 to $500 a month with chemicals and filter cleans included, and it keeps the water balanced every week.
