Fort Myers Pool Resurfacing
Your pool's interior surface endures constant exposure: Fort Myers' intense UV radiation, pool chemicals, calcium in Southwest Florida water, and year-round use. Over time, even the best plaster degrades. You'll notice rougher texture, staining, etching, hollow spots, or stubborn algae that chemicals can't control. These are signs your pool surface has reached the end of its life. If you're also dealing with cracks or leaks, our pool repair in Fort Myers team can address those before resurfacing begins.
Resurfacing isn't just cosmetic. It protects the pool's concrete shell from water damage and structural deterioration. A new surface extends your pool's life by a decade or more, reduces chemical usage, and transforms the swimming experience. Our Fort Myers team handles every step: draining, surface preparation, application of your chosen finish, and the careful chemical startup process. For a complete transformation, consider pool replastering with PebbleTec or quartz aggregate for superior durability in Florida's climate.

Pool Refinishing Options in Fort Myers: Plaster, Quartz & Pebble
White Plaster
Traditional, affordable, classic blue-water look. Standard white cement and marble dust. Lasts 7 to 10 years in Florida. Best for homeowners on a budget or preparing to sell.
Quartz Finish
Colored quartz aggregate mixed into plaster for enhanced durability and vibrant color options. Smoother than pebble, longer-lasting than plaster. 12 to 15 year lifespan.
PebbleTec
The gold standard in luxury pool finishes. Natural pebbles create a textured, resort-quality surface that resists staining, etching, and chemical damage. 15 to 20+ year lifespan.
Diamond Brite
Quartz-pebble hybrid with brilliant color and smooth texture. Available in over 20 colors. Excellent resistance to UV and chemical damage. 12 to 18 year lifespan.
Swimming Pool Resurfacing Process
- Drain & Prep — We safely drain your pool and prepare the surface by chipping out old, loose plaster and pressure-washing the shell.
- Bond Coat — A bonding agent is applied to ensure the new finish adheres permanently to the concrete shell.
- Application — Your chosen finish (plaster, quartz, or pebble) is troweled on by hand and smoothed to perfection.
- Acid Wash & Fill — The surface is lightly acid-washed to expose the aggregate, then the pool is filled with fresh water.
- Chemical Startup — We balance your water chemistry over several days to cure and protect your new surface. You'll get the green light when it's swim-ready.
Pool Interior Finish Replacement, Fort Myers, FL
How do you know it's time? Walk into your pool and run your hand along the wall. If the surface feels like sandpaper instead of smooth plaster, your finish has worn through. Stains that won't brush away, hollow-sounding spots when you tap the surface, and cracks you can feel with your fingertip are all signs that replacement is needed, not patching.
For Fort Myers pools that went through Hurricane Ian's aftermath — debris impact, prolonged draining, or contamination — interior surface damage is common. Even pools that survived the storm intact often develop issues as the ground settles and shifts in the months after. Our team has restored hundreds of post-Ian pools across Lee County.
How Long Does Pool Resurfacing Take in Fort Myers?
A typical pool resurfacing project in Fort Myers takes 7 to 14 days total. The first 1 to 2 days are for draining the pool and surface preparation — chipping out loose plaster, pressure washing, and applying the bond coat. The new finish is applied in a single day. After that, the pool must be filled slowly and the water chemistry balanced over 5 to 10 days. Resurfacing is often paired with pool tile installation or pool coping repair for a complete pool refresh.
Weather plays a role in Florida. Rain during the application phase can delay the project, as can extreme heat. We time our projects around the forecast to minimize delays. Most Fort Myers homeowners plan their resurfacing during the dryer months from October through April, but we resurface year-round.

7 to 14 days total. 1 to 2 days to drain and prep, 1 day to apply the finish, and 5 to 10 days to fill and chemically balance the water before swimming.
White plaster: 7 to 10 years. Quartz finish: 12 to 15 years. PebbleTec/Diamond Brite: 15 to 20+ years. Florida's UV and humidity accelerate wear compared to other regions.
Plaster is the most affordable (7 to 10 year lifespan). Quartz adds colored aggregate for durability and color (12 to 15 years). PebbleTec uses natural pebbles for a resort-quality, highly durable finish (15 to 20+ years). Diamond Brite is a quartz-pebble hybrid with brilliant color options.
No. Wait until the pool is completely filled and chemically balanced, typically 5 to 10 days after the finish is applied. Entering too early can damage the new surface.
