RESURFACING

The pool surface is essentially the “skin” that covers the pool structure beneath the tile line. The ideal surface is smooth, but not slippery and durable enough to withstand submersion and chemicals. The most common surfaces for a commercial swimming pool are plaster, paint, tile or a PVC membrane. Stainless steel pools are often left unfinished for a modern look. Health departments tend to favor finishes in lighter colors so that debris and algae are easy to spot and clean up. All pool surfaces have their pros and cons and our renovation team can help you find the right option for your pool resurfacing project.
  • Plaster materials are semi-permeable membranes which are not watertight. This allows small amounts of moisture to slowly permeate through these coatings. Plaster finishes are more durable for everyday wear and tear than most other finishes.
  • Replastering can be the most effective way to ensure that the pool’s finish is sustained for an extended period. A plaster finish with good care will last 8-10 years vs. 1-2 years for pool paint.
  • There are many alternatives to white plaster (which is made of marble dust and white cement). Including new aggregate materials that are much harder, creating a stronger, more durable finish. Additives like quartz, pebble, and glass beads, can extend the life of a pool’s surface by as much as 10 to 15 years if the water chemistry is properly maintained and the pool is covered postseason. Be sure to inquire about mosaic tile inlays for plaster finishes. This is another great way to increase the visual appeal of your renovation project.
