Increase Your Pool’s Usability
Pool finishes will become pitted over time due to the excessive sunlight and chemical wear. When pitting occurs, it causes the surface of the pool to become rough. This can often lead to you not wanting to use the pool as often because it is uncomfortable. A new surface will eliminate this issue by providing a smoother surface that is able to handle being chemically treated heavier without the repercussions.
Staining
Pools can start to get discolored after years of wear and tear. These stains can come from the minerals, chemicals or other materials in the water such as leaves and natural debris.
Check to see if the stains are algae, which will be a shade of green or even red, or another color. If your cleaning efforts are unsuccessful, it may be time to resurface the pool.
Material Is Coming Off (Delamination)
When your pool surface feels like sandpaper and you can see the raw gunite peeking through, it’s time to resurface your pool.
There are a lot of different factors that can cause the pool’s surface materials to break down and come off, such as:
- Years of heavy use
- Unbalanced pH levels
- And sudden damage
Once the surface layer starts to come off, it’s only going to continue and spread. So, it’s important to have it resurfaced as soon as you notice problems as delamination causes a lot of extra cleanup and we all want to avoid any extra cost procured from this issue.
There Are Leaks
The longer you wait to repair a leak in your pool, the more it will cost.
So, be on the lookout for these signs of leaks to see if it’s time to repair and resurface your pool:
- Cracks or gaps in the concrete
- Wet spots of grass near the pool area
- Loose or falling tiles
- Water loss is greater than the evaporation rate — you can check this by seeing how much water evaporates from a bucket and comparing it to your pool
- And unbalanced pH levels, which can cause damage
If you notice any of these signs or are worried there are leaks, talk with one of us in the office here at Advanced Pool & Spa to set up an appointment to resurface your pool. Generally 9/10 times this will repair the leak.
You’re Ready for an Update
Resurfacing is more than just a way to repair and maintain your pool: It also gives you the opportunity to transform and enhance the look of your pool.
Just resurfacing your pool will update the space, but you can also change it up with materials like tiles and aggregates. You can choose from different colors and textures to make your pool a truly unique entertainment space.
Both of these trendy options can turn your pool in a luxurious oasis, while also fixing any surface issues.
