Replastering Existing Shotcrete or Gunite Swimming Pools, also refered to as Plaster Refinishing or Pool Remodeling

Over time, pool surfaces can wear down, become rough, or develop stains and cracks, making replastering a crucial step in restoring both beauty and functionality.

Whether you're looking to refresh your pool with a classic plaster finish or upgrade to a more durable and visually striking pebble or quartz aggregate surface, we offer top-tier solutions tailored to your needs. Our skilled team meticulously prepares each pool before applying a new finish, ensuring strong adhesion and a smooth, long-lasting result. With our expert craftsmanship and high-quality materials, we transform worn-out pools into stunning, rejuvenated retreats that will provide years of enjoyment.



Our Pool Refinishing Process


Refinishing your pool is a multi-step process that requires precision, expertise, and attention to detail. At White Sands Pool Plastering, we follow a structured approach to ensure a smooth, long-lasting, and high-quality finish. Here’s what you can expect:

1. Draining the Pool – The first step is safely draining the pool to prepare it for refinishing.

2. Surface Preparation – We remove or undercut the waterline tile as needed, clean the tile, and chip out old plaster and any hollow spots to create a solid base for the new finish.

3. Bond Coat Application – A specialized bond coat is applied to promote strong adhesion between the existing surface and the new plaster.

4. Tile & Equipment Installation (if applicable) – New tile and any necessary equipment are installed before applying the new finish.

5. Applying the New Finish – A high-quality pebble or quartz finish is carefully applied, enhancing both durability and aesthetics.

6. Acid Washing – For quartz finishes, an acid wash is performed by our plaster crew, and the pool is filled the same day. Pebble finishes require a curing period of 1-2 days before our acid wash team completes the process and begins filling the pool with water.

7. Final Walkthrough & Start-Up – Once the pool is filled, a service technician will visit to add start-up chemicals, provide a brief walkthrough, and review proper pool care.

8. Enjoy Your Pool – With your refinished pool complete, it’s time to relax and enjoy your beautifully restored backyard oasis!

Our meticulous process ensures that your pool not only looks stunning but also provides lasting performance and enjoyment for years to come.
