Pool Resurfacing in Miami: What You Need to Know
Over time, even the most beautiful pools can show signs of wear. Cracks, stains, or rough surfaces not only diminish your pool's aesthetic appeal but can also lead to costly repairs if ignored. That’s where pool resurfacing comes in—a process that restores your pool’s beauty and extends its lifespan.
At Blueviel, we specialize in pool resurfacing services tailored for Miami homeowners. Whether you’re looking for a sleek Diamond Brite finish or something more custom, here’s everything you need to know about the process.
Why Resurface Your Pool?
- Fix Structural Issues: Resurfacing addresses cracks, leaks, and peeling plaster.
- Upgrade Aesthetics: Choose from modern finishes like Diamond Brite, Midnight Blue, or custom glass tiles to give your pool a fresh look.
- Enhance Comfort: A smooth surface feels better on your feet and makes cleaning easier.
- Increase Durability: High-quality finishes can protect your pool for years to come, even in Miami’s humid climate.
The Pool Resurfacing Process
Here’s a step-by-step breakdown of what you can expect during a pool resurfacing project with Blueviel:
- Drain the Pool: The first step is to remove all the water and inspect for damage.
- Prepare the Surface: We remove the old plaster or finish, clean the surface, and address any structural issues.
- Apply the New Finish: Once prepped, your chosen finish—whether plaster, aggregate, or tiles—is expertly applied.
- Fill the Pool: After the finish cures, we refill your pool with water.
The Importance of the Fire-Up Process
The resurfacing process doesn’t end when the pool is refilled. The fire-up phase is critical to ensuring the longevity and appearance of your new finish.
What is the Fire-Up Process?
The fire-up process involves balancing the pool water’s chemicals during the first two weeks after resurfacing. During this time, the surface finish is still curing, and careful chemical management is essential to avoid staining, scaling, or uneven texture.
Steps in the Fire-Up Process:
- Monitor pH and Alkalinity: High pH levels can lead to scaling, while low levels can damage the surface.
- Adjust Calcium Levels: Proper calcium hardness prevents the new finish from becoming too brittle or scaling.
- Brush the Surface Daily: Brushing removes plaster dust and ensures an even finish.
- Frequent Water Testing: We test and adjust water chemistry frequently to maintain ideal conditions.
By completing the fire-up process correctly, you’ll protect your investment and enjoy a flawless finish.
