Why pool owners trust Aqua Lustre

Clearer swimming water

Fresh media traps tiny micro-particles that old, rounded sand grains simply let slip through.

Lower chemical consumption

Better physical filtration removes organic dust before it can react with and consume your chlorine.

Protects pool floor from sand spills

Inspecting the laterals prevents cracked arms from spewing gritty sand all over your pool tiles.

How our pool visits work

  1. 1

    De-pressurising and vacuuming spent media

    We open the vessel and carefully extract the old compacted sand using specialized extraction tools.

  2. 2

    Inspecting internal laterals

    We wash down the internal tank and inspect every distributor arm for cracks that leak sand into the pool.

  3. 3

    Refilling with fresh filtration media

    We half-fill the tank with water to cushion laterals, then slowly add clean silica sand or active glass media.

  4. 4

    Rinsing and testing running pressure

    We seal the lid, run thorough backwash and rinse cycles, and confirm normal running pressure on the gauge.

What our local customers say

★★★★★
Julian and his colleague turned our cloudy outdoor pool around in two visits. The water is sparkling, the pump runs quietly, and they always latch the side gate so the dog stays safe.
Marcus B., Guildford, GB
★★★★★
Our pool cover had collected a thick layer of wet leaves over winter. They cleared the whole deck, scrubbed the tile line, and left the water completely clear.
Fiona T., Sevenoaks, GB
★★★★☆
Very dependable family business. They arrive when promised, check the filter pressure, and provide a clear invoice without any pushy sales talk.
David W., St Albans, GB
