We’ve been handling pool resurfacing throughout Broward County for years. We understand exactly what Florida’s climate does to pool surfaces and how to build finishes that last.

Pool Resurfacing Process

Complete Surface Renewal Done Right

First, the existing surface gets completely removed down to the structural shell. This isn’t a patch job – everything that’s damaged, loose, or compromised comes out. You’ll see exactly what condition your pool structure is in.

Next comes surface preparation and any necessary structural repairs. We handle cracks, assess the shell integrity, and ensure everything is ready for the new finish.

Your chosen material gets applied using proven techniques that ensure proper bonding and longevity. Whether you select Diamond Brite, premium plaster, or aggregate finishes, we follow manufacturer specifications exactly. The process includes startup procedures, chemical balancing, and detailed care instructions for the critical first month when your new surface cures properly.

Pool Resurfacing Options

Materials Built for Florida Weather

Lauderdale-by-the-Sea pool owners deal with specific challenges like salt air exposure and UV damage that accelerate surface deterioration. The materials and techniques we use account for these local conditions, not just generic approaches that work elsewhere but fail here.

You can choose from several proven options. Basic plaster provides a classic, smooth look at the most affordable price point. Diamond Brite and aggregate finishes offer superior durability and stain resistance with color options that won’t fade. Premium pebble finishes provide the ultimate in longevity and aesthetic appeal.

Each material has different maintenance requirements and lifespans. We’ll walk you through the pros and cons of each option, considering your budget, how you use your pool, and your long-term plans. The goal is finding the right balance of performance, appearance, and value for your specific situation.

How much does pool resurfacing cost in Lauderdale-by-the-Sea?

Pool resurfacing costs vary significantly based on surface area, chosen materials, and required prep work. Basic plaster resurfacing typically starts around $4-6 per square foot, while premium aggregate finishes can run $8-12 per square foot. These ranges don’t include structural repairs, which add to the total if your pool has significant damage. The key is getting an accurate assessment of your pool’s condition before committing to any price. Cheap quotes often mean corners get cut during preparation, leading to premature failure. We provide detailed estimates that break down material costs, labor, and any necessary prep work so you understand exactly what you’re paying for.

How long does the pool resurfacing process take?

Most pool resurfacing projects take 5-7 days from start to finish, depending on the size of your pool and chosen materials. Weather conditions can affect the timeline since some steps require specific temperature and humidity ranges. You can typically start using your pool 7-10 days after the final finish application, but the exact timeline depends on your chosen material. The surface needs time to properly cure and harden before exposure to swimmers and chemicals. During this period, you’ll follow specific water chemistry guidelines and may need to brush the surface daily to remove loose particles. Rushing this process can damage the new finish permanently, so we provide detailed startup instructions.

What are the signs my pool needs resurfacing?

Several clear indicators tell you it’s time for resurfacing. If your pool feels rough underfoot or irritates skin, the finish has deteriorated. Persistent stains that won’t come clean with normal maintenance are often embedded in the surface. Frequent water loss despite no visible leaks usually indicates small cracks in the surface. You might also notice widespread discoloration, white blotches, or areas where the original color has faded significantly. As a general rule, most pool surfaces need resurfacing every 7-15 years depending on the material used, maintenance practices, and exposure to Florida’s harsh weather conditions.

Can resurfacing fix cracks in my pool?

Resurfacing addresses surface-level cracks and minor structural issues, but major structural problems need separate repair before any new finish gets applied. During surface removal, we’ll see exactly what condition your pool shell is in. Hairline cracks and small areas of deterioration get repaired as part of proper surface preparation. However, significant structural damage requires additional work that we’ll identify and discuss with you upfront. The good news is that most cracks pool owners worry about are surface-level issues that resurfacing handles completely. We’ll assess everything during the initial inspection and provide transparent recommendations.

What maintenance does a newly resurfaced pool require?

The first 30 days are critical for long-term durability. You’ll need to brush the surface daily, maintain specific water chemistry levels, and avoid automatic pool cleaners until the surface fully cures. After this initial period, maintenance becomes routine: regular brushing, proper chemical balance, and avoiding abrasive cleaning tools. Most finishes also benefit from periodic acid washing to remove mineral deposits and maintain appearance. We provide detailed care instructions including when to add chemicals, when brushing is needed, and what products to avoid. Following these guidelines ensures your new surface reaches its full lifespan potential.

Do you handle permits and inspections for resurfacing?

Yes, we handle all permitting requirements and inspections as part of our complete service. Most resurfacing projects in Lauderdale-by-the-Sea require permits, and we’re familiar with local requirements and processes. We create detailed timelines for each phase of work and coordinate inspections so there are no delays. You don’t have to deal with bureaucratic requirements or worry about code compliance issues. Our experience with local regulations means projects move smoothly from start to finish. We take care of the paperwork so you can focus on enjoying your renovated pool.
