What does pool resurfacing & replastering include in San Marcos?

Inland San Marcos pool plaster fights hard water chemistry constantly. Etching, pitting, and staining accumulate over 10-15 years and eventually the only fix is resurfacing. The job is drain, chip out, apply new finish (plaster/quartz/pebble), then manage the 28-day startup chemistry.

What's included

  • Pool drain and surface prep (chip-out or acid wash depending on condition)
  • New tile and coping if needed
  • Plaster, pebble, or quartz finish application
  • Fill with proper start-up chemistry
  • First 28 days of startup chemistry management included
What drives the cost Pool size, finish type, and whether tile and coping are replaced
Timeframe 7 to 14 days total

What do San Marcos homeowners ask about resurfacing?

How long does a pool resurfacing job take in San Marcos?

7 to 14 days total. Drain plus chip-out takes 1-2 days, new tile/coping if needed 1-3 days, surface application 1 day, cure and refill 3-5 days, startup chemistry 2-4 weeks to fully cure.

What's the difference between plaster, pebble, and quartz finishes?

Plaster is smoothest and cheapest but shortest-lived. Quartz adds crystalline aggregate for durability. Pebble uses exposed aggregate for a textured, mottled look, longest lasting but rougher underfoot.

How often does my San Marcos pool need resurfacing?

Plaster: 8-12 years. Polished quartz: 12-18 years. Pebble finishes: 15-25 years. San Marcos's water chemistry matters a lot, harsh water shortens lifespans.
