What our acid wash covers in Haslet

A full physical and chemical surface stripping procedure for gunite, plaster, and pebble pools. We drain the pool, apply a balanced dilution of commercial muriatic acid to remove stained surface cement, neutralize the runoff with soda ash to protect plumbing, and rinse the shell thoroughly before starting the refill.

  • ✓Submersible pump setup and controlled pool draining with hydrostatic relief valve monitoring
  • ✓Manual application of diluted HASA muriatic acid across floor and walls
  • ✓Specialized scrubbing of calcium scale deposits along the tile line and steps
  • ✓Neutralization of acid slurry in the bowl using soda ash before pumping out
  • ✓Targeted treatment of deep black algae spore sites embedded in plaster pores
  • ✓PebbleTec and exposed aggregate brightening without aggregate dislodgement
  • ✓Localized spot treatments using specialized underwater acid wash equipment when full draining is not indicated
  • ✓Initial fill-water testing and start-up chemical balancing plan once the pool is filled

What we don't do (just so you know)

  • • Vinyl liner and fiberglass pools — acid washing will dissolve or bleach these surfaces
  • • Structural plaster failures, delamination, hollow spots, or gunite showing through worn plaster
  • • Subsurface soil stains migrating through porous gunite from the exterior of the shell

About acid wash in Haslet, TX

Haslet is experiencing rapid transformation from a quiet rural community into a thriving suburban destination, driven by its strategic location along I-35W between Fort Worth and Denton County. New master-planned communities, retail development, and infrastructure improvements have made Haslet one of the fastest-growing areas in Tarrant County. The Alliance Town Center area and surrounding residential developments have brought thousands of new homes, many with pools, to the community. Haslet's growth pattern mirrors what Northlake experienced just a few years ago — new construction neighborhoods with modern amenities and young families eager to enjoy outdoor living. Many new pools in Haslet feature contemporary designs with salt chlorine generators, variable-speed pumps, and automation-ready equipment. The community's proximity to our Northlake headquarters (approximately 8 miles) makes service routing efficient. As Haslet continues to grow, Simplified Pools is positioned to be the go-to pool service provider for this expanding community.

Haslet water profile

Haslet is served by municipal water systems associated with Tarrant County water suppliers, providing moderate-quality water with standard mineral content (300-400 ppm TDS). Water chemistry is relatively straightforward for pool maintenance, similar to other municipal-served communities in the area. New construction pools benefit from starting with balanced chemical profiles.

Haslet pool & equipment mix

Haslet pools are predominantly newer construction installations reflecting the community's recent growth. Most feature modern plaster or pebble finishes, cartridge filtration, variable-speed pumps, and salt chlorine generators. Many homes include basic automation and LED lighting. Pool designs range from compact family pools (8,000-15,000 gallons) in patio homes to mid-size installations (15,000-25,000 gallons) in single-family homes.

Haslet acid wash questions

How fast can you get to my Haslet pool for acid wash?
Our usual Haslet response time is 24-48 hours after the first call, and we're already routing through Tarrant County most days. Diagnostic visits are scheduled within 1-2 business days.
Does Haslet water affect acid wash?
Haslet is on municipal water (typically Upper Trinity Water District or DCUD), which is relatively clean — TDS under 500 ppm — but summer irrigation demand and Texas heat still push chemistry around. For acid wash that's mostly good news — the failures we see in Haslet are heat-cycle and chemistry-drift related rather than mineral, so they're more predictable and cheaper to stay ahead of. Many Haslet pools run salt chlorine generators, which changes how we dose the other chemicals.
Do you charge for the diagnostic visit even if I don't book the repair?
Yes — there's a flat diagnostic charge that we quote on the call before we send a tech. We waive it if you book the repair on the same visit. The diagnostic includes a written estimate so you can compare or get a second opinion before any work starts. We don't publish a fixed repair price online because every job is genuinely different — but you'll never get a surprise number.
Are you licensed and insured for pool work in Haslet?
Yes — we carry full general liability + workers' comp, and our techs are trained on every major brand (Pentair, Hayward, Jandy, Sta-Rite). We're a real local business in Argyle serving Haslet (76052), not a referral marketplace that sells your details to whoever answers first.
Do you bring parts on the first visit, or do I wait for a second visit for the repair?
We stock the most-common parts on every truck — pump seals, basket lids, cartridges, sand, filter o-rings, ignition components, salt-cell test kits. About 70% of repairs in Haslet finish on the first visit. The other 30% need a part order; we book the return for the next available slot, usually within 48 hours.
How often can a plaster pool be acid washed?
Most traditional white plaster finishes can handle an acid wash every 5 to 7 years. Each treatment removes roughly 1 to 2 millimeters of surface paste, so excessive washing exposes the rough sand and aggregate beneath. Pebble and quartz finishes tolerate the process better because the aggregate itself is impervious to acid.
Will an acid wash fix rough spots or plaster cracks?
No. Acid removes mineral scale and stains, but it does not repair structural cracks or smooth out degraded, pitted plaster. In fact, if the plaster is already thin, an acid wash can make rough patches more noticeable by removing the surrounding smooth cream coat.
What happens to the acid after scrubbing the walls?
The acid collects in the deep end bowl where we neutralize it using soda ash until the pH reaches a neutral 7.0 to 7.4. Once safe and inert, the slurry is pumped out according to local municipal drainage regulations so it does not damage storm drains or pool pumps.
Can I leave the pool empty after the wash to save on water bills?
No. In North Texas clay soils, an empty concrete pool risks floating or shifting from hydrostatic ground pressure, and direct summer sun will crack bare plaster. Refilling begins immediately once the neutralization and rinse-down are finished.
