If your pool is starting to show its age, it is probably time to start looking at resurfacing your pool. Just like your roof or driveway, a pool needs attention after a few years of wear and tear. Signs of stains, increasing rough texture, and leaks are all signs that you need to have your poll resurfaced as soon as possible.
When your pool looks shabby, it can be difficult to find the motivation to jump in, much less do the work to take care of it. It’s typical for a pool’s plaster to start to wear down after 10 years of use and below we’ll describe the first signs of wear and tear and what to do about it as well as how to continue to take care of your pool long after it has been resurfaced.
No matter how strict your pool maintenance schedule is or how great your screen encloser is, over time you’ll begin to see erosion marks on your pool. This naturally happens when water continuously moves against a solid surface over time. You might also see stains that won’t wear off no matter how much you scrub. Both of these eyesores are signs that your pool chemicals are off. Unfortunately, if it goes unnoticed long enough, the damage is irreparable and you should start looking at pool resurfacing companies to come to renovate your pool.
If you have noticed that the plaster around your pool or outdoor spa is starting to crack and erode, it’s time to talk to a pool resurfacing company. Once again the PH levels in your swimming pool or spa are off and it’s important for you to talk to one of the pool resurfacing companies in your area as soon as possible.
If you do have a pool in need of resurfacing and are thinking about waiting until summer or the warm days are over. The longer you wait, the worse it will get and the longer it will take. Typically, pool resurfacing will only take about two to three weeks at a time. If you want, you can take this opportunity to do a few pool renovations and upgrade what you already have. Talk the pool resurfacing companies in your area about what kind of pool renovations they offer.
