Things to know

Empty Pool

Pool resurfacing requires your swimming pool to be emptied. Re-filling can take an additional 24+ hours after the project depending on your pool size. There is also the option of having your pool filled faster with a water truck.

Multiple Visits

Performing a pool resurfacing will take more than a few days, requiring emptying, resurfacing, filling, and aftercare. This process also requires multiple people performing the job to prevent the plaster from settling too quickly.

Surface Care

This project must be scheduled during the right weather to avoid damage. After resurfacing your pool, a curing and maintenance will be required, and certain chemicals can not be added immediately. The walls must be brushed every couple of days.

Water & Electric

We will need outside water access for the cleaning process. Electric is also needed for any pumps, machinery, and tools.

Locked Access

For property ease of access – if you will not be home, please provide us with any access keys, codes, or instructions for your specified entrance areas. We will always re-lock anything and secure any entryways as if we were never there.

Skilled Trade

Never attempt pool resurfacing yourself. It must be done by an experienced professional. We take preventative measures, and pay attention to detail for an extended surface life.

What are the benefits of resurfacing my pool?

Variety of looks, variety of material choice, new swimming pool look, and no more rough surfaces.

What causes pool surfaces to fail?

Required pool chemicals degrade the swimming pool's surface over time. Environmental factors can also have a great impact on the pool surface's longevity.

When should I resurface my pool?

D&R Pool Services highly recommends resurfacing your swimming pool after 10 years or when you feel there needs to be a change. Especially if the surface is starting to crack or looks cosmetically unsettling. Injuries can occur from chipped and sharp edges; if there are safety hazards we recommend a pool resurfacing as soon as possible - to avoid serious cuts to swimmers.

What is pool resurfacing or marble dusting?

Marble Dusting is the protective layer on a gunite pool covering the substrate, or the gunite/shotcrete underneath. It is a bond-coat treated material that lasts for years and must be done by a professional. There are pleasant designs and various textures that can fit your needs.

Drain Pool And/Or Spa

We will carefully drain your pool and/or spa to a designated discharge location on your property only.

Your new top coat will be applied to the swimming pool or spa.

Fill With Water

Re-fill your swimming pool or spa and get the equipment running again. Re-filling can take an additional 24+ hours depending on your pool size and will require multiple visits – to start up the pool and balance the chemicals. There is also the option of filling it faster with a water truck at an additional charge.
