Pool Resurfacing Process Portofino South

Here's Exactly What Happens Next

First, we drain your pool completely and assess the current surface condition. We’re looking for structural issues, crack patterns, and any underlying problems that need attention before we start the real work.

Next comes surface preparation—removing the old finish, repairing any damage, and creating the perfect foundation for your new surface. This step determines how long your resurfacing will last, so we don’t rush it.

Then we apply your chosen finish, whether that’s plaster, aggregate, or tile. The application process typically takes 5-7 days depending on weather and the scope of work. We refill your pool, balance the water chemistry, and walk you through the curing process so you know exactly when you can start swimming again.

Choose the Finish That Fits Your Life

We offer multiple finish options because every pool owner in Portofino South has different priorities. Standard plaster gives you a clean, classic look that lasts 10-15 years with proper maintenance.

Aggregate finishes like pebble surfaces are more durable and give you that high-end resort feel. They typically last 15-20 years and are more resistant to staining and chemical damage.

For the ultimate in durability and appearance, tile finishes provide a stunning look that can last decades. While the upfront investment is higher, many of our Broward County clients choose tile for the long-term value and the fact that individual tiles can be replaced if damaged.

We’ll help you understand the real-world differences between options, including maintenance requirements and long-term costs, so you can make the right choice for your situation.

Most pool resurfacing projects take 5-7 days from start to finish, but South Florida’s weather can affect the timeline. Rain delays are the biggest factor—we can’t apply certain finishes in wet conditions. The process breaks down like this: Day 1 is draining and surface prep, days 2-3 involve removing old material and repairs, day 4 is application of the new finish, and days 5-7 are curing and refill. After that, you’ll need to wait another 7-10 days before swimming to allow proper curing and water balance. We always give you realistic timelines upfront and keep you updated if weather or unexpected repairs change the schedule. No surprises, no guessing when you’ll have your pool back.
The most obvious sign is visible damage—cracks, chips, or rough patches that catch your feet when you walk on them. But there are earlier warning signs that can save you money if you catch them in time. If your pool water is consistently hard to balance, requiring more chemicals than usual, your surface might be breaking down. Stains that won’t come out with normal cleaning are another red flag, especially if they keep coming back after acid washing. Rough spots that weren’t there before indicate the surface is deteriorating. Don’t ignore these early signs—addressing resurfacing needs before major damage occurs costs significantly less than waiting until you have structural issues to repair.
Pool resurfacing in South Florida typically ranges from $5,000 to $15,000, depending on your pool size, chosen finish, and any repairs needed beforehand. Standard plaster runs about $4 per square foot, while premium aggregate finishes cost around $10 per square foot. The size of your pool is the biggest cost factor. A typical residential pool (around 1,000 square feet) with standard plaster runs $6,500-$8,000. Larger pools or premium finishes like tile can push costs higher, but you’re also getting longer-lasting results. We provide upfront pricing with no hidden fees. After our initial assessment, you’ll know exactly what you’re paying and what’s included. No surprises when the job is done.
No, you need to wait 7-10 days after resurfacing before swimming. This waiting period is crucial for proper curing and water chemistry balance—rushing this step can damage your new finish and void warranties. During the first week, we’re carefully balancing your water chemistry and monitoring the curing process. The new surface needs time to properly set and stabilize. Swimming too early can cause staining, rough spots, or premature wear. We’ll test your water multiple times during this period and let you know exactly when it’s safe to swim. Most of our Portofino South clients use this time to plan their first pool party with the new finish—it’s worth the wait.
Pebble aggregate and polished aggregate finishes offer the best durability, typically lasting 15-20 years with proper maintenance. These surfaces resist staining and chemical damage better than standard plaster. Tile finishes last the longest—often 20+ years—but come with higher upfront costs. The advantage is that individual tiles can be replaced if damaged, rather than resurfacing the entire pool. Standard plaster is the most budget-friendly option and lasts 10-15 years when properly maintained. For most homeowners in Broward County, it provides good value and performance. We’ll help you weigh the long-term costs versus upfront investment to find the right balance for your situation.
Yes, we provide warranties on both our workmanship and materials, but the specifics depend on the finish you choose. Standard plaster typically comes with a 1-2 year workmanship warranty, while premium finishes often include longer coverage. Material warranties vary by manufacturer—some aggregate finishes include 10-year limited warranties against defects. We’ll explain exactly what’s covered and for how long before you make your decision. More importantly, we stand behind our work. If something isn’t right, we’ll make it right. That’s been our approach since we started serving Broward County, and it’s why we have clients who’ve been with us since day one.
