Signs Your Pool Needs Resurfacing

Not sure if your pool is ready for a new finish? Look for these common warning signs:

  • Rough or sandpaper-like texture - uncomfortable on feet and skin
  • Stubborn stains - that won't come out with brushing or chemicals
  • Chalking or dusting - white powder comes off when touched
  • Visible cracks or spalling - plaster chipping away from the shell
  • Discoloration or fading - uneven color throughout the pool
  • Constant chemical imbalance - difficulty maintaining pH levels
  • Exposed gunite or concrete - the structural shell is showing through
  • Pool is 10+ years old - nearing end of typical plaster lifespan

If you notice any of these issues, it may be time to consider pool plastering or a premium resurfacing finish.

Pool Finish Options

Choose from a range of finishes to match your style, budget, and longevity needs.

Standard White Plaster

The classic choice for pool owners. White plaster provides a clean, bright appearance and is the most affordable option.

Quartz Aggregate

Quartz crystals are mixed with plaster for enhanced durability and a subtle sparkle. More resistant to staining and etching than standard plaster.

Pebble Finishes

Premium finishes like Pebble Tec use natural pebbles for exceptional durability and a beautiful, natural appearance. We're Pebble Tec certified applicators.

Glass Bead Finishes

Recycled glass beads create a smooth, luminous finish that reflects light beautifully. Available in various colors for a custom look.

Our 5-Day Resurfacing Process

We complete most pool resurfacing projects in about a week, weather permitting.

Days 1-2: Drain & Prep

We drain your pool and prepare the surface by chipping away loose material, repairing cracks, and acid washing to ensure proper adhesion.

Days 3-4: Apply New Finish

Our experienced crews apply your chosen finish using pneumatic application for an efficient, clean result. We use only brand-name materials.

Days 5-7: Cure & Fill

The finish cures while we begin filling your pool. We carefully manage the fill rate to ensure proper curing.

Day 14: Ready to Swim!

After water chemistry stabilizes (about a week after filling), your pool is ready to enjoy. We provide care instructions for the first 30 days.

While we're resurfacing your pool, consider bundling with deck resurfacing or tile repair for a complete renovation.

How much does pool resurfacing cost in Tampa?

How long does pool resurfacing take?

The labor portion takes 5-7 business days, weather permitting. After filling, water chemistry needs a few more days to balance. You can usually swim about 14 days after we start.

How often should I resurface my pool?

What's the difference between resurfacing and replastering?

They're essentially the same process. "Replastering" refers specifically to applying new plaster. "Resurfacing" is the broader term covering any new finish, whether plaster, quartz, pebble, or glass beads.
