Plaster lasts 10 to 15 years in hard Valley water before it stains and turns rough underfoot; pebble runs 15 to 20 or more. Resurfacing drains the pool, chips the failing finish back to a sound shell, and installs a new plaster, pebble or quartz interior.

Questions
Answered plainly

How long does pool resurfacing take?

About 1 to 2 weeks from drain to swim. That covers draining the pool, chipping the failing finish back to a sound shell, installing the new plaster, pebble or quartz interior, and the cure and startup chemistry that follow the refill.

How long does a pool interior last in Arizona?

Plaster lasts 10 to 15 years in hard Valley water before it stains and turns rough underfoot. Pebble runs 15 to 20 years or more, which is why many Valley pools move to a pebble or quartz interior when the original plaster is due.

What happens to the waterline tile during a chip-out?

The chip-out takes the failing interior back to a sound shell, and waterline tile repairs are part of a resurfacing: the tile line is inspected while the pool is drained and damaged pieces are put right before the new plaster, pebble or quartz interior goes in. Replacing the whole tile line along with coping and decking is a pool remodel rather than a resurfacing.
