Tile calcium first, then the rest of the pool

Elite Pool Tile Cleaning, L.L.C. is Andy Davidson's owner-operated business, an Arizona LLC since 2016. The name is built on calcium removal, and three related jobs sit beside it: draining and acid washing, pool and spa cleaning, and tile, grout and filter repair.

Pick the one that sounds like your pool, or send a few photos and let Andy tell you which it is. The estimate is free and comes over the phone.

01

Calcium Removal

Pool tile, Pebble Tec, waterfalls, fountains, flagstone, brick, rock and stone

A spillway wall of dark glass tile with three scuppers, white with calcium above and glossy below

Stubborn calcium off the water line, grout, spillways, waterfalls, fountains and negative edge walls, blasted with media chosen for the surface so the glaze is left intact.

The water comes down 6 to 8 inches, the media is matched to the surface, and no sealer is needed afterwards because the glaze is left undamaged.

Pool Draining and Acid Wash

Plaster and interior pool surfaces

Draining the pool and washing the interior with an acid cleaning solution that lifts hard-water staining, algae and dirt. An economical way to renew a pool every two to four years.

Water saturated with hard-water minerals stains the interior. An acid cleaning solution lifts contaminants, algae and dirt, brightens and sanitizes the surface, and removes most staining. With Arizona's hard water, summer heat and evaporation, every two to four years is the rhythm.
