Most pools in Florida need resurfacing every 8-15 years, depending on the finish type, maintenance, and environmental exposure. Florida’s intense sun, heat, and humidity accelerate wear and tear compared to other climates. Standard plaster typically lasts 7-10 years, while aggregate and pebble finishes can last 12-20 years with proper care. Signs it’s time to resurface include rough texture, persistent staining, visible cracks, or difficulty maintaining water chemistry. Regular maintenance and balanced water chemistry can extend your surface’s lifespan significantly.
