Black Algae Treatment in Pecan Square, TX

Black algae colonies are the hardest pool problem to fix. Normal shock won't touch them — the biofilm protects the colony. Our protocol breaks through: aggressive brushing, copper-based chemistry, and phosphate starvation.

What our black algae covers in Pecan Square

Specialized black-algae protocol. The colonies live in plaster pits and grout lines protected by a tough biofilm — if you don't break the biofilm mechanically before applying chemistry, nothing works. We bring stainless brushes, copper-based algaecide, and a 3-visit follow-up schedule.

  • Stainless-brush mechanical scrub on every visible colony + surrounding area
  • Copper-based algaecide at shock-level concentration
  • Triple-dose calcium-hypochlorite spot-shock directly onto pitted areas
  • Phosphate removal to starve any surviving cells
  • Filter deep-clean each visit (black algae re-seeds from filter media)
  • 3-visit follow-up over 7-10 days to confirm kill

About black algae in Pecan Square, TX

Pecan Square is an award-winning master-planned community built around a modern interpretation of a classic Texas town square. As one of the newest and most rapidly expanding neighborhoods in Northlake/Justin, it features hundreds of brand-new luxury pools built by top-tier DFW contractors. Because these are new construction pools, initial startup chemistry and equipment commissioning is critical to protect the fresh plaster. We specialize in taking over pools post-construction and ensuring the warranty remains intact.

Pecan Square black algae questions

How fast can you get to my Pecan Square pool for black algae?
Same-day visits are common in Pecan Square when we have parts on the truck — call (469) 455-1054 before 11 AM and we usually have someone out the same afternoon. After hours, next morning at the latest.
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 Pecan Square?
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, not a referral marketplace.
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 Pecan Square 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.
