Professional Pool Cleaning Services for Sparkling Water

A standard pool clean is much more than a quick skim of the surface. A typical service with Direct Pool Supplies includes:

• Scooping leaves and debris from the surface
• Brushing the walls, steps and waterline
• Vacuuming the pool floor and hard-to-reach areas
• Cleaning skimmer and pump baskets and checking the filter
• Testing and balancing the water (pH, alkalinity, sanitiser levels, etc.)
• A visual check of key equipment such as the pump, filter and chlorinator

This combination of cleaning and water testing keeps your pool looking great and helps prevent algae, staining and equipment issues.

Most Aussie pool owners benefit from a professional service every four to six weeks, depending on usage, weather, and surrounding trees or debris. During summer or heavy use periods, more frequent servicing helps keep the water crystal clear and properly balanced.

Pool cleaning is quoted case-by-case. The price depends on:
Size and type of pool (inground, above-ground, complex shapes)
How dirty the pool is and whether it needs a one-off deep clean or regular visits
The condition and complexity of your equipment
Travel time to your property and any extra chemicals or parts required
Because of these variables, the best way to get an accurate figure is to request a tailored quote for your pool cleaning, whether you’re booking an introductory one-off service or ongoing visits.

Most backyard pools benefit from:

• Regular owner checks – skimming, emptying baskets and quick visual checks several times a week
• Professional cleaning every 4–6 weeks – with more frequent visits over summer or when the pool is used heavily

Commercial or high-use pools may need more frequent professional attention to stay compliant and crystal clear. A regular schedule keeps on top of debris, balances the water and reduces the risk of green-pool problems.

The best approach is usually a combination of both. Routine DIY tasks like skimming leaves, emptying baskets and keeping an eye on the water level can easily be handled by the pool owner.
Professional pool cleaners bring specialist equipment, accurate water testing, and the experience to spot issues early (such as poor circulation, worn parts or early algae growth). With Direct Pool Supplies, you can also pair cleaning services with quality cleaners and chemicals from the shop, so your pool stays sparkling between visits.

Pool cleaning is the regular process of removing physical debris, scrubbing surfaces and correcting water balance so the pool is safe, comfortable and inviting. It typically covers:

• Physical cleaning (scooping, brushing, vacuuming)
• Filtration care (cleaning or backwashing filters, checking flow)
• Chemical balance (chlorine or sanitiser levels, pH, alkalinity and more)

Done properly, it protects swimmers’ health, extends the life of your pool surface and equipment, and keeps the water looking clear and blue. 

The 3 C’s are Circulation, Cleaning and Chemistry:

• Circulation – keeping the pump and filter running long enough each day so water moves through the system
• Cleaning – removing debris and brushing surfaces so dirt and algae can’t take hold
• Chemistry – regularly testing and adjusting chemicals to keep the water balanced and sanitised

When these three are in check, your pool is far less likely to go cloudy or green, even during peak swimming season.
