Pool Cleaning & Maintenance Plans
One-off refreshes and scheduled weekly/fortnightly care with proactive checks.
Bright, reliable and professional swimming pool care — cleaning, chemistry, equipment and commercial maintenance.
One-off refreshes and scheduled weekly/fortnightly care with proactive checks.
Rapid algae clear with shock & floc; acid wash when required for full surface reset.
Diagnostics, genuine parts and professional fit-off for pumps, filters and chlorination.
Solar blankets, safety covers and automated rollers to reduce debris and heat loss.
Photometer-grade on-site results, precise dosing and door-to-door chemical delivery.
Programs for builders, body corporates and real-estate pre-sale handovers.
A consistent process keeps water clear, equipment reliable, and problems caught early — especially through Melbourne’s fast weather changes.
When a pool turns green, the fastest path back to safe swimming is a structured recovery — not random chemical additions. We test on-site, confirm stabiliser (CYA) and free chlorine requirements, then apply the correct shock level for your pool’s condition. Brushing and filtration management are part of the process, because dead algae still needs to be captured and removed. If clarity stalls, we may use clarifier or floc where appropriate and schedule follow-up visits to confirm the pool has fully cleared. Most recoveries in the Melbourne area are completed within 48–72 hours, depending on contamination level and filtration performance.
If the pool is green or cloudy, we’ll recommend a recovery plan rather than “guess dosing”.
Balanced water prevents eye irritation, reduces scaling and corrosion risk, and keeps sanitiser effective — especially during warm spells and windy weeks. We measure pH and total alkalinity for stability, confirm free chlorine for hygiene, and check stabiliser (CYA) so chlorine remains effective under UV. From there we adjust dosing to keep the pool comfortable and consistent, while avoiding the common problem of “chasing numbers” that swings chemistry back and forth. This service is ideal for new pool owners, seasonal changes, salt pools, or any pool that looks clear but does not feel right.
Many “water problems” are actually equipment problems: weak circulation, dirty filters, worn pump seals, or a chlorinator that cannot produce enough chlorine. We inspect pumps, filters and chlorination systems, look for leaks and unusual noise, and check pressure/flow behaviour that points to blockages or media issues. Where repairs are needed, we explain the cause and the options clearly — from minor fixes to part replacement or upgrade recommendations. Getting equipment right improves water clarity, reduces chemical spend, and prevents recurring green or cloudy cycles.
A clear, safe pool in Melbourne is not just about adding chlorine now and then. With wind, trees and fast-changing temperatures, water balance and equipment need regular attention. Litra PoolCare is a local, owner-operated service based in Carrum Downs, looking after residential and commercial pools across the bayside and south-east.
Whether your pool is already green, starting to look cloudy, or you simply do not have time to keep up with maintenance, we can step in. Our pool cleaning and maintenance plans combine regular vacuuming and brushing with professional water testing and proactive equipment checks, so issues are picked up early – before you lose whole weekends trying to fix the water yourself.
For green pool recovery, we follow a structured protocol rather than guessing with chemicals. We test the water on site, calculate the correct shock level, use clarifier or floc when needed, and return for follow-up visits to make sure the pool is truly clear and stable. In most cases, we can turn a green or heavily contaminated pool around within 48–72 hours, so you can use it again safely and confidently.
Because Litra PoolCare is a small, specialised business, you are not dealing with a rotating roster of technicians. You speak directly with the person who maintains your pool, knows its history and equipment, and can give honest advice about repairs, upgrades and long-term care. Our goal is simple: keep your water clear, your equipment reliable and your pool ready to use whenever Melbourne delivers a warm day.
Send a quick photo with your enquiry – we can usually estimate the work and outline the steps before the first visit.
Cut debris and heat loss, keep chemistry stable, and make maintenance easier with pro-grade solar blankets, safety covers and automated rollers.
Solar blankets help trap warmth and minimise overnight heat loss — great for comfort and lower energy bills.
Keep leaves and dust out to reduce vacuuming, skimming time and filter load — cleaner water, less work.
Reduced evaporation and UV exposure help maintain balanced chemistry and save on chlorine usage.
Supply and neat fit-off of covers and rollers with clear guidance, commissioning and warranty support.

Turns up on time and does a great job. I do monthly regular cleans and the pool looks great. I would recommend him.Posted on Nicola FTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Vlad did an incredible job bringing our pool back to life. It had turned into a completely green, swamp-like pool and he managed to restore it so it now looks brand new. The transformation was honestly amazing. He responded very quickly when I contacted him and came out straight away, which we really appreciated. Vlad is also such a lovely, kind and genuine person to deal with, which made the whole experience even better. If you need pool cleaning, green pool recovery or general pool servicing, I would highly recommend Vlad.Posted on David LepileoTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Helpful and easy servicingPosted on David GdanskiTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Vlad did a fantastic job servicing my pool. He was punctual and did everything he promised. He was thorough, honest and explained clearly what needs to be done. With so many people that over charge and try to scam you in this industry, I’m happy I have finally found a trustworthy pool guy. I also love the fact that I can support a small business that provides personal service, rather than the franchise shops that push their staff into selling you products you don’t need. Thanks Vlad!
