Common Causes of Unsightly Pool Stains

A bad stain on the pebble, white plaster, or tile surface of your pool can quickly turn your backyard paradise into an unsightly mess. There are a number of different causes for pool stains, and each one can leave a unique type of stain. In many cases, regular vacuuming and basic pool cleaning can help you avoid most major pool stains. However, there are some stains that require some more extensive attention. In those situations, it is best to leave the stain removal from your pebble, white plaster and tile pool surfaces to a team of skilled professionals. At Pool Problems? we can quickly identify certain stains and provide lasting solutions such as organic stain removal, pool and spa acid and chemical washes and chlorine rinses to help tackle some of the following stains on your pool surfaces.

Organic Debris
Leaves, berries and even acorns can cause stains on most pool surfaces, especially if they are left to settle on a pool surface. At Pool Problems? we offer a top quality organic stain removal from pebble and white plaster surfaces that will help remove any lingering organic stains.

Algae
There are multiple types of algae that cause stains in swimming pools and spas. Algae stains occur when the pool water is not sufficiently circulated or chlorinated. Some algae will tint your water green, while leaving a yellow, green or even black stain on pool surfaces. In order to completely remove the algae stains and prevent any from occurring again, you should consider having a professional perform a chlorine wash on all of your pool surfaces.

Metal Stains
All pool water contains traces of certain metals like iron, copper and manganese. In some cases where there is a concentration of a particular metal in the water, you may notice some trace stains are left behind after the water evaporates. Sometimes these stains are caused by aging components on your pool plumbing, or by your pool water source. Over time, these stains can set in, and will require some professional cleaning. At Pool Problems? we are fully equipped to handle even the toughest metal stains on all of your pool surfaces, including white plaster, tiles and pebbles.
