About Lumen Pool Care
Inner-east Melbourne pool care, done the way it should be.
Lumen Pool Care was built specifically for the homes of Toorak, South Yarra, Armadale, Malvern, Hawthorn, and Kew. This part of Melbourne has standards, and a generic pool service that covers all of Victoria simply doesn't meet them.
We work with homeowners, property managers, and private estate operators who expect the same professionalism from their pool technician as they do from any other household trade. We show up on the day we say we will, in uniform, in a marked vehicle, fully insured for public liability. We test your water with digital equipment, send you a report, and photograph the pool at the end of every visit.
No chasing. No guessing. No pool that catches you off guard before a dinner party.

Why Lumen
The pool technician you don't have to chase.
Four things that separate Lumen Pool Care from every other pool service in Melbourne's inner east.
We show up. Every time.
Scheduled fortnightly visits, confirmed 24 hours ahead. If anything changes, you hear from us first, not the other way around.
Photo confirmed, every visit.
After every service, you receive a photo of the pool and a short report by SMS or email. You'll always know the pool was attended, even when you weren't home.
Uniformed. Insured. Professional.
Our technicians arrive in uniform, in a marked Lumen vehicle, fully insured for public liability. They behave the way the rest of your household trades should.
Built for the inner east.
We service Toorak, South Yarra, Armadale, Malvern, Hawthorn, and Kew only. That focus is why we understand your suburb, your pool type, and your standards.
How We Work
What every Lumen visit looks like.
The same standard, every time, whether it's your first service or your fiftieth.
A photo after every single visit.
When your service is complete, you receive a photograph of the pool and a brief written report. Not a text saying 'done'. A photo. Every time.
Your scheduled window, kept.
We confirm your visit 24 hours ahead and arrive in the scheduled window. If we're running early or delayed, you hear from us first. Your time is not our scheduling problem.
A written quote before any work starts.
For green pool recovery and equipment repairs, you receive a fixed-fee quote before a single chemical goes in. If the scope changes, we tell you before we proceed.
One area. One standard.
Because Lumen services only the inner east, our technicians are in your suburb regularly. They know the pool types here, the water conditions here, and the standard expected here.

Frequently Asked Questions
Questions Toorak and Hawthorn pool owners actually ask.
How much does pool maintenance cost in Melbourne's inner east?
We provide a fixed-fee quote before every service. Pricing is confirmed on the initial call based on your pool size, condition, and frequency. Green pool recovery is quoted separately before work begins. Contact us for a quote specific to your pool.
How quickly can you fix a green pool?
Most inner-east residential pools show significant improvement within 48 to 72 hours of a professional recovery treatment. The first visit involves chemical shock treatment to kill the algae; the pool will appear worse before it clears, that's normal. We monitor progress and return as needed. You'll receive a photo when the pool is swim-ready.
Do I need to be home during the service?
No. The majority of our clients aren't home during their scheduled visit. We access the pool via the gate (you'll provide key or code on sign-up), complete the service, and send a photo and brief report to your mobile before we leave.
Are your technicians insured and qualified?
Yes. All Lumen technicians are fully insured for public liability and professionally trained in pool water chemistry and equipment maintenance. Our team arrives in uniform and in a marked vehicle.
Do you service rental properties and work with property managers?
Yes. We work with property managers across inner-east Melbourne, offering direct tenant coordination, owner-copy invoicing, and a single point of contact across multiple properties. Contact us directly to discuss a portfolio arrangement.
How often should a pool be professionally serviced?
For most inner-east residential pools used regularly during summer, fortnightly service maintains water quality, equipment health, and appearance. Pools near trees often benefit from weekly service in autumn due to leaf load. In winter, monthly service is typically sufficient.
What's included in a standard fortnightly service visit?
Each visit includes: surface skimming and vacuum, brush of walls and steps, emptying skimmer and pump baskets, digital water testing, chemical balancing, filter backwash or cartridge rinse as needed, equipment inspection, and a photo report on completion. Chemicals are included in the service price.
