Signs Your Concrete Pool Needs Resurfacing

How do you know your concrete pool needs resurfacing? Perform regular checks on them and look for the following signs.

Peeling

Peeling or spalling refers to flakes of plaster coming off the pool surface, exposing the concrete underneath. Once peeling starts, it keeps worsening and hastening, unless immediately resurfaced.

Staining

Pool water chemicals can corrode or crystallize on the pool surface to create ugly stains. While pressure washes and chemical treatments may solve the issue, extensive damage can only be fixed by resurfacing.

Abrasiveness

Erosion and chemical deposits can cause the once smooth pool surface to turn rough and abrasive. When that happens, you know it’s time for concrete resurfacing.

Cracks

Temperature changes throughout the day and leaving your pool drained and dry under the hot sun can cause the surface to crack. The constant expansion and contraction cause web-like cracks that are best fixed by resurfacing.

Discolouration

Water flow and chemicals can cause the pool floor to develop discoloured streaks. Once it sets in, concrete resurfacing is the only way to repair the pool surface.

Leakage

If your pool is taking longer and more water to fill, there might be a crack or fissure in the structure. The gushing water will widen the crack. You must fill it up before that happens and resurface the area.

Rust Stains

Exposed iron bars or wires can cause rust stains on the pool floor. It should be cut out, patched and resurfaced to prevent the stain from spreading.

Uprooted Pebbles

High-pressure wash and acid wash can cause the pebble finish of a pool to weaken, dislodging the pebbles. This signals the need for the concrete surface to be redone.

Surface Coat Diffusion

Cheap paints and finishes can start to delaminate and pollute the pool water. If you notice chalky or cloudy water, it might be time for a resurfacing.

Benefits of Concrete Pool Resurfacing

Concrete pool resurfacing helps rejuvenate the health and looks of your concrete pool. Its benefits include:

Reparative Measure

Pool resurfacing after proper treatment helps repair cracks, peeling, deposits or any degradation that had occurred.

Safety

Abrasive surfaces, dislodged pebbles, chemical or biological deposits, cracks and peels can all be dangerous for people enjoying the pool unless you fix them with resurfacing.

Cleanliness

A degraded pool floor attracts dirt and pathogens and makes it difficult to clean the pool. Resurfacing ensures a smooth surface that is easy to clean.

Saves Expenses

If you leave your pool surface in a bad condition, it could deteriorate and cost way more to repair later than if you resurface it now.

Aesthetics

A damaged pool surface looks unsightly. By getting concrete pool resurfacing in Sydney done by Pacific Pools, you can opt for exquisite finishes that upgrade the look of your house.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • How can I tell if my concrete pool needs resurfacing or just a deep clean?

    Over time, signs like rough spots, faded finishes, persistent stains, or tiny cracks indicate it might be time for resurfacing rather than cleaning. If you notice these issues or if the pool surface feels uncomfortable, resurfacing can restore the smooth, appealing finish and ensure it lasts.

  • What are the latest trends in pool resurfacing finishes?

    Today’s resurfacing finishes go beyond basic looks! Many Sydney homeowners are opting for textured pebblecrete, quartz aggregates, and glass-bead finishes for a modern and luxurious touch. These options not only look incredible but also offer durability and resistance to pool chemicals.

  • Can I add unique colors or patterns during the resurfacing process?

    Absolutely! Pacific Pools offers a range of colors and textures, and patterns like tile mosaics or multi-tone surfaces are popular choices. Customizing the look allows you to create a pool that stands out and matches the ambiance of your backyard.

  • Is pool resurfacing an eco-friendly option?

    Yes, our pool resurfacing options are often more sustainable than a total replacement and can incorporate environmentally friendly materials. Renewing your existing pool structure reduces waste, and many modern finishes are made with durable, eco-conscious materials.

  • What’s the difference between resurfacing and replastering?

    Resurfacing typically involves applying a new layer over the pool’s existing surface, using options like quartz, pebble, or polished aggregates. Replastering is more traditional and involves applying a basic plaster. Pacific Pools offers resurfacing options that outlast and outperform traditional plaster finishes.

  • How long will the new surface last once the pool is resurfaced?

    With proper maintenance, a resurfaced concrete pool can maintain its look and durability for 10-15 years. High-quality materials and expert installation by Pacific Pools extend the lifespan, ensuring your pool looks fresh for years.

  • Can I swim immediately after resurfacing is completed?

    After resurfacing, your pool typically needs a curing period to ensure the new surface sets properly. This period is usually 7-10 days, but your resurfacing team at Pacific Pools will provide specific guidelines on when you can dive back in.

  • What’s the best way to maintain my pool after resurfacing?

    Once resurfaced, maintaining balanced pH levels, brushing the surface regularly, and scheduling routine check-ups can help your pool stay in pristine condition. Pacific Pools can guide you on post-resurfacing care to prolong the beauty and durability of your new surface.

  • Can I combine resurfacing with other upgrades, like new tiles or LED lights?

    Yes! Resurfacing is a perfect time to add new features, whether it’s fresh tiles, modern lighting, or even a new pool coping. Combining these upgrades during resurfacing can be more efficient and cost-effective.

  • How does the resurfacing process work, and will it disrupt my home?

    The resurfacing process is designed to be efficient and minimally disruptive. After draining the pool, Pacific Pools prepares the surface, applies the chosen finish, and allows it to cure. The entire process will be as seamless as possible, with a timeline customized to suit your household’s needs.
