![]() ![]() I think I have even read one or two that are on 20 years. Many posters on this board who really take care of their pool have had great results with plaster and have far exceeded the 7-10 average. Your typical replaster of a plain plaster is 7-10 years BUT again its your water chemistry. There are many pools down under where pebble was first used that are on a quarter century or more and still have no need to be re done and actually show little wear at all. We chose pebble because there is substantial evidence that the extended periods between re plastering a pebble pool is well worth the extra few thousand. They thought we would be better off going with plain plaster or pebble. We originally were leaning toward quartz but most were very hesitant about it. We had 6 quotes on our recent pool build. What I have read (note- have no personal experience) and should have clarified is that there is now a great deal of evidence that quartz MAY not extend the life of the pool plaster at all despite the claims originally made by the makers of the product and there are far more complaints about splotch issues with quartz than most other plaster installs ( dark colored plaster also sees many complaints.) Most plaster guys are pushing their customers away from quartz. Colour is guaranteed not to bleed or fade in any way for 7 years.I agree that there are some ( even MANY) that love the quartz- I actually really like the look as well. We do not rely on “premix” coloured plaster as colour variations through different batches can be very noticeable and impossible to prevent. All pool plaster is batch coloured on the day to guarantee no uneven colouring or colour variations. It is the only way to guarantee the new pool plaster will not “pop” and creates the same even plaster thickness as the day it was first made.Īll plastered pool are “jack hammered” and existing plaster removed prior to new plaster being laid.Ī large range of standard colors is available as well as custom blended colors to suit all needs. This is why we always remove the old plaster using jack hammers before we will lay new pool plaster. If the old plaster has any problems it will affect the new pool plaster that has been laid on top. Many of our competitors use chemicals to “scratch coat” the old surface without removing the plaster. The most important step in swimming pool resurfacing is in the preparation phase. Removing the old plaster and re-coating is the only way to guarantee the new plaster will last many years to come. Once this occurs pool resurfacing is required to prevent rio (steel reinforcement) in the concrete rusting and creating large long term problems. Once the plaster in a concrete swimming pool has become porous, it will stain easily, be rough to touch and be harder to maintain chemical balancing. The ultra smooth surface looks beautiful and withstand the test of time. ![]() The smoother your pool plaster the harder it is for chemicals to penetrate and break down the surface. We believe all swimming pools should have a smooth finish to prevent “bleeding toes” and surface deterioration due to chemicals.
