How Do I Know If My Gunite Pool Needs Resurfacing?

By Clearwater Pools & Outdoor Living

How Do I Know If My Gunite Pool Needs Resurfacing?

Gunite pools are renowned for requiring significantly less maintenance than traditional concrete pools. However, this does not mean that they are impervious to natural wear and tear. Over time, even well-maintained gunite pools will lose their sheen and require a bit of resurfacing, as the pool’s natural protective layer wears off. Clearwater Pools & Outdoor Living can help you with this, masterfully guiding you through the resurfacing process so that your pool is in peak condition for summer. Simply look out for the signs listed below and reach out to us when you think your beautiful gunite pool could use a touch-up!

Is It Time To Resurface Your Pool?

When it’s time to resurface your pool, many of the signs will be obvious. If your pool visibly looks worse for wear, meaning you see significant staining, discoloration, flaking/peeling plaster, cracks, or missing sections, your pool absolutely needs refinishing. On the other hand, some signs may be more subtle, such as inconsistent water levels, rougher surface texture, erosion, and algae/mold growth. For this reason, it’s always a good idea to thoroughly inspect your pool at least twice a year, when setting it up for summer and before winterizing, to make sure it stays in great shape.

How Often Should You Invest In Resurfacing?

How often a person should resurface a pool varies greatly by what kind of pool it is, exposure to the elements, average use, and other variables. For instance, a concrete pool that’s used aggressively every summer might benefit from resurfacing at least every few years to maintain its grandeur. The best way to determine if your pool needs resurfacing is to make sure you clean and inspect it regularly. If you do your best and still don’t know, reach out to Clearwater Pools & Outdoor Living so we can send someone to put your mind at ease.

What Could Go Wrong If You Don’t Resurface When Necessary?

The most important thing to remember is that pool ownership is a big responsibility, and regardless of what kind of pool you have or how well you take care of it, it will need resurfacing eventually. Neglecting to resurface your pool can lead to serious and costly problems, not to mention create unnecessary risk. Cracks and crevices can form, leaking water that can degrade landscaping and lead to water damage in surrounding structures. Nature can begin to take over in the form of molds/algae and invite unwanted pests. Not to mention as the pool shifts and degrades, its surface and the surrounding area will become unsafe to traverse. 

There’s simply no reason to let your beautiful pool reach such a state of disrepair. Even if you don’t have the time or ability to inspect your pool yourself, Clearwater Pools & Outdoor Living is always ready and willing to send someone out to lend you a helping hand. We believe everyone deserves to enjoy their swimming pool, and we will help you do so in every way that we can!
