Sound familiar?

"Our pool guy hadn't been there in 3 weeks and the pool was a mess."

01 The visit actually happens

Weekly, consistent visits — that's the promise on our own page, and the reason the name works. Algae needs neglect. It doesn't get any.

02 You deal with Lowell

Not a call center. Not a rotating crew. The person who quotes your pool is the person the reviews thank by name.

03 Straight numbers, in person

Estimates are free and happen at your pool — a real number for your actual water, filter, and equipment. Not a guess over the phone.

Proof

Two homeowners fired their pool company. Here's what they say now.

"Lowell came out to rescue our pool. Our pool guy hadn't been there in 3 weeks and the pool was a mess. We really appreciate his rapid response, thoroughness, professionalism and his service. Great job!"
Eric N.Bonita, CA · Feb 2024 · Yelp
"Great company, I highly recommend. We previously used a different company that was over priced and was not pro active. Then we found Algae Free Pool Service and they have been so helpful! Reliable, knowledgeable, and professional. If you have a pool that needs help, this is the spot to contact."

The chemistry

Clear water isn't luck. It's numbers.

Algae shows up when the chemistry drifts. Every weekly visit tests your water and balances it against the targets that keep it swim-ready:

  • Free chlorine1–3 ppm
  • pH7.4–7.6
  • Total alkalinity80–120 ppm
  • Stabilizer (CYA)kept in range

Industry-standard targets for residential pools. Your pool's exact plan comes out of the free in-person estimate.

The route

Based in Oceanside. On the road all over North County.

Call or text

Tell us what the water looks like. Green, cloudy, or just tired of no-shows — all normal calls.

Free estimate

Lowell comes out, looks at the pool and the equipment, and gives you a straight number. In person, free.

The clean-up

Water balanced, pool cleaned, filter and pump checked. The "before" photo stops being your pool.

The weekly rhythm

Consistent weekly visits keep the chemistry on target — so algae never gets a foothold again.

Who shows up

The guy in the reviews is the guy at your gate.

Algae Free Pool Service is run by Lowell, out of Oceanside. When Eric's pool company went quiet for three weeks, Lowell is who came out and rescued the water — that story is his review, word for word, up above.

It's an owner-run operation: the person who quotes your pool is the person who shows up to keep it clear. No hand-offs, no "your tech has been reassigned."

Straight answers

What homeowners ask first

How fast can you clear a green pool?

It depends how far gone the water is and what shape the filter's in. Some clean-ups turn around in about a day — there's a "before / next day" photo set on our Yelp page from a real job. The free estimate is where you get a straight answer for your pool.

What happens on a weekly visit?

The pool gets cleaned and skimmed, and the water gets tested and balanced against the chemistry targets above. Equipment gets looked at while we're there — if the pump or filter is heading toward trouble, you hear about it early, not after it fails.

Do you fix pumps and filters?

Yes — repair, replacement, and upgrades are regular work here. Old-pump-to-new-pump and old-filter-to-new-filter swaps are in our Yelp photos. Installation, remodeling, and mastic work too.

What does pool service cost?

Every pool is different — size, condition, equipment, and how green it's gotten. That's why estimates are free and in person: you get a real number for your actual pool, not a guess over the phone.

Do you service spas and hot tubs?

Yes. Pool and hot tub service is what we do — same visit, same chemistry discipline, same route.

Get your weekends back

Stop staring at green water.

One call gets you a free in-person estimate. If the pool's already turned, say so — rescue jobs move to the front of the line.
