Is your pool looking a little tired, worn or damaged? Bring it back up to new condition by having it resurfaced. Best of all, pool resurfacing is an extremely cost effective alternative to a full replacement. Read on for more.

Pool resurfacing is a way of giving your pool a new surface so that it looks like new again. All types of pools can be resurfaced. There are two main options to choose from – a fibreglass coating or epoxy paint. Another option that you might consider is to have your pool replastered.

The process is begun by fixing any cracks, leaks, or other damage to the pool. Any rust, algae, mould, dirt or other surface debris is thoroughly cleaned off and the surface is allowed to dry. The new coating is then applied to the pool and allowed to dry thoroughly. The pool is then refilled. Your new pool coating should last for many years, provided that the pool water is correctly maintained.

To save water during the process, many pool resurfacing companies will empty your existing water (provided that it is in good condition) into a bladder, and store it until it is needed again. This is also cost effective as it will save you from having to buy more water to refill the pool with.

When choosing your pool resurfacing professional make sure that they are qualified and experienced and can show you examples of their previous resurfacing work. They should give you a quote before work begins.
