POOLS REMODELING

Before your next swimming pool remodeling

Resurfacing a pool is more than a one-day project and normally requires several experienced team members. Before any work can get started, all of the water must be drained from the pool.

The pool needs to be cleaned next and make sure any debris or dirt is removed — that includes the main part of the pool, along with pool steps and the coping, if you’re resurfacing the entire feature.

If the concrete shell has any cracks or damage, that’s a good time to prep the pool and have them repaired since it is empty: You want to ensure the pool has a solid structure before moving forward. Any blisters or hollow spots will be removed to ensure a strong bond.

With a clean palette, the crew can start to pour in and scrape the plaster until it’s spread out evenly. Then, it’s time to start adding whichever type of finish or design you chose.
