You have a beautiful swimming pool in your backyard. Sometimes, because you see it every day, you don’t notice the wear and tear. So, how do you know when it’s time to look into resurfacing your pool? There are specific signs that indicate your pool’s surface needs attention. And it’s always better to do the job before it leads to a bigger problem.
- The first sign to look for is surface stains. These discolorations often come from natural debris, such as plant leaves and dirt, falling in your pool. These natural annoyances can cause algae to grow, causing bad staining that is difficult to remove. You can try having the pool drained and professionally cleaned—but if it’s still stained, it may be time to consider resurfacing.
- If you have a saltwater pool, you need to keep an eye on your pool’s surface. Salt is rough on most things due to its abrasive texture. It’s important to resurface before too much wear and tear occurs from the salt, as this could result in leakage.
- Have you noticed your pool’s water level dipping for no obvious reason? If so, you may already have a leak. Leakage problems need to be attended to immediately. Resurfacing your pool can prevent many leaks from occurring.
- Have you looked at the calendar? If it’s been more than three to seven years since you last resurfaced, you should consider doing so. Good maintenance habits are the best way to avoid large, expensive problems with your pool!
