plaster pool finish

refinish gunite pool

Concrete decks are often found around swimming pools. They can be just as susceptible to wear as the pool itself. Resurfacing a concrete deck costs on average $10 per square foot.

The internet is chock full of information on all things pool-ish, but the ratio of marketing jargon to understandable info is higher than one might hope for. If you’re researching pool costs, a good place to start is Homeadvisor or porch.com.

Plaster must be in good order before you can repaint an existing pool. Pros recommend that you prepare the plaster surface with a wash using muriatic acids, then rinse it with TSP (trisodiumphosphate), and finally water. Note: Always use TSP (trisodium phosphate) and muriatic acids with extreme caution. It is important that the old paint be compatible with the new one. Rubberized latex paint, for example, won't stick to epoxy.
