We’ve seen every type of pool problem in South Florida’s unique climate, from the constant sun exposure to the humidity that accelerates wear and tear.

Pool Resurfacing Process

Here's Exactly What Happens

First, we drain your pool completely and assess the existing surface condition. We’re looking for cracks, hollow spots, and areas where the old plaster has failed. This tells us exactly what prep work is needed. Next comes surface preparation—removing loose plaster, repairing any structural issues, and acid washing to ensure the new surface bonds properly. This step determines how long your resurfacing job will last, so we don’t rush it. Then we apply your new finish, whether that’s traditional plaster, pebble, or quartz. The application process typically takes 1-2 days, depending on your pool size and chosen material. After that, we refill your pool and balance the water chemistry so everything’s ready when you are.

Pool Resurfacing Options Florida

Choose Your Pool's New Look

In Pelican Cay’s climate, your resurfacing material choice matters. Traditional plaster is the most affordable option, lasting 7-10 years with proper maintenance. It’s smooth, classic, and available in several colors. Pebble finishes cost more upfront but handle Florida’s sun and chemical exposure better, typically lasting 15-20 years. They provide natural texture and come in various color blends that complement South Florida’s outdoor aesthetic. Quartz finishes offer the best of both worlds—smooth like plaster but with the durability of pebble. They resist staining and algae growth better than traditional plaster, which means less maintenance and lower chemical costs over time. Most of our Broward County clients choose quartz for its long-term value, especially given how much pool maintenance costs have increased.

How long does pool resurfacing take in Pelican Cay?

Most pool resurfacing projects take 5-10 business days from start to finish. This includes draining your pool, surface preparation, applying the new finish, and refilling. Weather can affect timing—we avoid working during heavy rain or extreme heat that could compromise the finish quality. In South Florida, we typically recommend scheduling resurfacing during fall or winter months when weather is more predictable and you’re less likely to need your pool daily. The actual application of new plaster or finish material usually takes 1-2 days. The rest of the time involves prep work and allowing proper cure time before refilling, which ensures your new surface lasts as long as possible.

What are signs my pool needs resurfacing?

Peeling plaster is the most obvious sign—once it starts, it won’t stop on its own. You’ll typically see this first on steps, walls, or the shallow end where there’s more wear. Permanent staining that won’t come out with brushing or chemical treatment means the surface is too porous and needs replacement. If your pool water constantly looks cloudy despite proper chemical balance, the rough surface could be harboring algae and bacteria. Small cracks or hollow-sounding spots when you tap the surface indicate the plaster is separating from the shell underneath. Catching this early prevents more expensive structural repairs later. Most pools in our area need resurfacing every 10-15 years, depending on usage and maintenance.

How much does pool resurfacing cost in Florida?

Pool resurfacing costs typically range from $4,000 to $10,000, depending on your pool size, chosen material, and any prep work needed. Traditional plaster is the most affordable option, while pebble and quartz finishes cost more but last longer. We provide upfront pricing after inspecting your pool—no surprises or hidden fees. The quote includes draining, surface prep, material, application, and refilling. Additional costs might apply if we discover structural issues that need repair first. Consider the long-term value: spending more on a quality finish like quartz might cost $2,000-3,000 extra upfront, but it could last twice as long as basic plaster. Over 20 years, that’s actually cheaper per year, plus you save on maintenance and chemical costs.

What's the best time to resurface a pool in South Florida?

Fall and winter are ideal for pool resurfacing in South Florida—typically September through March. Weather is more predictable, humidity is lower, and temperatures are better for proper curing. You’ll also save money during off-season. Many pool companies offer better pricing when demand is lower, and you won’t be missing prime swimming weather while your pool is out of commission. Avoid summer resurfacing if possible. High heat, afternoon thunderstorms, and humidity can interfere with proper curing. Plus, that’s when you want to use your pool most. Planning ahead for fall or winter resurfacing means your pool is ready for next swimming season.

Can I swim in my pool right after resurfacing?

No, you need to wait at least 7-14 days before swimming, depending on the finish material. New plaster needs time to cure properly, and swimming too early can damage the surface or cause discoloration. During the first week, we’ll help you with startup procedures—gradually balancing water chemistry and brushing the surface daily to remove plaster dust. This process is crucial for long-term durability and appearance. The waiting period might seem long, but it’s necessary. Rushing this process can cause problems like plaster discoloration, rough texture, or premature failure. We’ll give you a specific timeline based on your chosen material and current weather conditions.

Do you offer warranties on pool resurfacing work?

Yes, we back our resurfacing work with a satisfaction guarantee. The specific warranty terms depend on the material chosen—plaster typically has a shorter warranty period than pebble or quartz finishes. Our warranty covers defects in workmanship and material failure under normal use conditions. This doesn’t include damage from improper chemical balance, which is why we provide detailed maintenance instructions and startup procedures. We’re a local company that’s been serving Broward County for years, so we’ll be here to honor our warranty. Unlike national chains that might change ownership or disappear, you can reach us directly if any issues arise with your resurfacing job.
