Why Pool Resurfacing Isn't a DIY Weekend Project
Pool resurfacing means stripping the pool down to its shell and rebuilding the finish, tile, and often the coping around it. In Miami, that work legally requires a permit, because resurfacing opens the door to electrical, mechanical, and structural questions that a city inspector has every right to check. We've seen what happens when a homeowner hires a contractor who skips that step to save a few thousand dollars, and it usually costs more to fix later than it would have to do right the first time.


Frequently asked questions
Most residential resurfacing jobs take a couple of months from permit approval to a swimmable pool, though permitting itself can take longer depending on the city. We'll give you a realistic timeline once your project is scoped.

Resurfacing usually refers to the pool finish, tile, and coping. A renovation can include those plus deck work, equipment relocation, or structural changes. We'll tell you which one your project actually needs.
We always try our best to match existing tile, but exact matches on older tile aren't always possible since manufacturers discontinue colors and styles. In many cases, it looks cleaner to replace the full waterline tile run instead of patching a mismatch.
It depends heavily on pool size, finish type, and whether tile or coping is included. Contact our team to give you an exact number after a free assessment.
