Step 1 takes ten seconds. No obligation.
Plaster pools in Orlando usually need a new surface somewhere between 10 and 20 years. Rough patches that snag swimsuits, stains that will not brush out, hollow spots and chalky water are the signs. Resurfacing is also the moment to replace the waterline tile and coping, since the pool is already drained.
Finishes go from white plaster (marcite) at the low end, to quartz, to pebble finishes that cost more and are commonly cited to last 15 to 20 years or longer. The price depends on the surface area, the finish and how much prep the old surface needs.
Resurfacing and remodeling are licensed contracting work in Florida. Only a DBPR-licensed pool contractor may quote and do the job; check the license number before you sign anything.
Typical costs

Why Orlando pools need more care
Afternoon storms, June to September
Rain dilutes chlorine, lowers pH and washes in fertilizer and phosphates. Algae can bloom within a couple of days after a heavy storm.
Hard water
Orlando Utilities water averages about 129 ppm of hardness. Out-of-balance water leaves calcium scale on tile and salt cells.
Screen enclosures everywhere
Screened pools collect far less debris and usually cost less to service. The screen itself needs replacing as the sun breaks it down.
Oaks and pollen
Live oaks drop leaves and pollen in late winter and spring. Open pools under trees need longer visits and cleaner filters.
Hurricane season
June 1 to November 30. Do not drain the pool before a storm; afterwards, remove debris by hand, let equipment dry before restoring power and rebalance the water.
Before you hire anyone
Florida licenses pool contractors through the DBPR. Ask for the license number for repair, equipment and resurfacing work and look it up at myfloridalicense.com. Ask for proof of insurance too.
