What Is Pool Plastering?
Pool plastering is the final layer applied to the interior surface of a concrete or gunite pool. It creates a watertight seal and smooth finish on the pool shell while also contributing to the pool design and overall appearance. Over time, exposure to chemicals, UV rays, and daily use can cause your plaster to fade, flake, or crack.
Replastering your pool restores its surface, prevents further damage, and enhances your pool’s visual appeal. Whether you want a clean white finish or a custom-colored quartz blend, plastering is a cost-effective investment to maintain your pool and spa’s value and function.
Signs You Need Pool Replastering
If you’re wondering whether it’s time to replaster your existing pool, here are the most common signs to watch for:
- Rough or pitted surfaces that feel abrasive on feet or swimsuits
- Stains or discoloration that don’t respond to cleaning
- Chalking or flaking of the plaster coat
- Cracks or peeling along the pool walls or floor
- Loss of sparkle or dull water appearance
If any of these apply to your pool, it’s time to schedule a professional assessment from Blue Star Pools.

Frequently Asked Questions
1. How often should I replaster my pool?
White plaster typically lasts 7–10 years. Quartz and pebble finishes can last 15–20 years with regular maintenance and proper water chemistry
2. How long does the pool plastering process take?
Most replastering projects take between 3 to 7 days, depending on the size of your pool and the condition of the existing surface.

Yes! Many homeowners use this opportunity during pool construction or installation to upgrade to a colored plaster, quartz blend, or pebble finish to enhance appearance and durability.

We recommend waiting 7–10 days after the pool is refilled. During this time, the plaster is curing, and the water chemistry must be carefully balanced.
