What does pool resurfacing & replastering include in Shelter Valley?
Inland Shelter Valley 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. Shelter Valley water comes from Wells dominant at 16-22 gpg (very hard). The usual local condition is desert heat plus extreme well-water hardness on the few pools that exist. Neighborhoods in the city record include Shelter Valley community proper, Anza-Borrego desert edge.
