Pool Replastered in February 2025

[TJDPHX]

Hi Everyone,

I've recently had my pool replastered, and I have some concerns about the quality of the work. I've attached a few pictures to show the specific issues I'm seeing.

I've already spoken with the vendor who did the work, and their plan is to drain the pool on Saturday and polish the plaster on Sunday.

If you have any questions about the situation, recommendations on what I should ask or look for, or general thoughts about the plaster finish, I'd really appreciate your input.

Thank you in advance!

I would love to see the after pics. That looks kind of like when you wrinkle a fender on the car and sarcastically say "It'll buff out!" I have no experience but I don't know if polishing can take that much off. Like I said, the after pics will tell. Good luck to you.

Welcome to TFP.

The more they sand down the polish, the thinner the plaster gets, and reduces its life.

I would hand sand the bumps to smooth them and accept the other blemishes.

If I did a plaster job, the result would probably look similar. But I had never done it before.
