What we cover

Four pool jobs, and what they cost

Real numbers on each one, before you talk to a contractor.

A pool mid-build with its shell freshly coated in smooth grey plaster, a raised square spa with stone veneer at the far end, and the surrounding deck still bare concrete.

Classic Plaster

Smooth, durable white plaster. The classic pool finish, hand-troweled and cured for a clean surface.

A finished backyard pool with clear blue water, a raised stacked-stone spa spilling into it, statue fountains along the far wall and a sunken firepit filled with teal fire glass in the foreground.

Pebble & Quartz Finishes

Premium aggregate finishes in dozens of colors. Richer texture, deeper water color, built to last decades.

A kidney-shaped pool after resurfacing, its new blue waterline tile band and red brick coping meeting bright turquoise water, with a turf lawn running up to the edge.

Full Resurfacing

Old, rough, or stained pool? A contractor strips it back and rebuilds the surface, from chip-out to refill.
