Resurfacing restores your pool’s appearance and function. Over time, surfaces can become cracked, rough, or stained, leading to water leaks or algae growth. Resurfacing addresses these issues, creating a smooth, visually appealing surface that’s easier to maintain. Regular resurfacing can also extend your pool’s lifespan, making it a wise investment for the long term.

The frequency of resurfacing depends on the pool type:

• Concrete pools typically need resurfacing every 10-15 years.
• Vinyl liners may last 5-10 years.
• Fiberglass pools generally need resurfacing every 15-20 years. However, the actual lifespan varies based on factors like pool maintenance, usage, and local weather conditions.

Common signs include:

• Visible cracks or chips in the surface
• Rough or discolored patches
• Persistent algae or staining that doesn’t respond to cleaning
• Leaks or unusual water loss If you notice any of these, it may be time to consider resurfacing.

Resurfacing options vary by pool type:

• Concrete Pools: Plaster, pebble, and quartz finishes are common, each with different textures and lifespans.
• Vinyl Liners: Replacement vinyl comes in various colors and patterns.
• Fiberglass Pools: Gel-coating is typically used to renew the surface. The best choice depends on your pool type, budget, and desired look. Our team can help you choose the right option for your specific needs.

Yes, resurfacing is a great time to update your pool’s look. Concrete pools, for example, can be resurfaced with plaster, pebble, or quartz in various colors. Vinyl liners also come in many designs and colors, giving you the opportunity to refresh the pool’s aesthetic completely.

Resurfacing generally takes 1-2 weeks, depending on the pool size, chosen material, and weather conditions. Vinyl liner replacements tend to be quicker, while concrete pools might require more time for curing. We’ll provide a clear timeline based on your specific project needs.

Yes, resurfacing can often fix minor leaks, especially if they’re due to cracks or worn surfaces. For larger structural leaks, though, we may need to perform additional repairs before or during the resurfacing process to ensure the pool is watertight.

The cost varies widely depending on factors like pool size, resurfacing material, and complexity of the job. Vinyl liner replacement tends to be more affordable, while materials like quartz and pebble for concrete pools can be more expensive. Contact us for a detailed quote tailored to your pool.

Yes, newer resurfacing materials can reduce water absorption and heat loss, potentially lowering energy and chemical usage. Additionally, smoother surfaces require fewer chemicals to maintain, leading to cost savings over time.

Yes, draining is usually necessary to properly clean, repair, and apply the new surface material. We’ll handle the draining process and ensure it’s done safely and in line with local regulations.

Regular maintenance will keep the new surface in top shape:

• Maintain balanced water chemistry to prevent staining and surface wear.
• Brush and clean the pool weekly to remove debris.
• Schedule annual inspections to catch any early signs of damage. Proper care can help maximize the lifespan of your resurfaced pool.

Absolutely. Resurfacing smooths out rough patches and repairs cracks, reducing slip hazards and making the pool safer for swimmers. Updated surfaces are also less prone to algae growth, which can make pool floors slippery.

Yes, most resurfacing jobs come with warranties that vary by material. Concrete pool resurfacing often has warranties covering up to 7 years, while vinyl liners and fiberglass typically have shorter warranty periods. We’ll provide details based on your chosen material and specific project.
