Replaster, retile,
or a full ground-up renovation.
Plaster cracks, tile falls off, coping spalls, the structural side of pool ownership eventually catches up. We coordinate resurfacing, tile, coping, and Deck-O-Seal mastic work through our build team, Pools by Dip, and we handle the chemistry restart that comes with a fresh surface.
What’s included
- On-site assessment with both Utah Pools and Pools by Dip (joint visit)
- Plaster / pebble / aggregate selection + sample swatches
- Tile selection + waterline pattern review
- Coping inspection + repair or replacement quote
- Deck-O-Seal mastic joint inspection
- Coordinated drain, removal, surface, refill schedule
- Refill chemistry reset, Utah hard-water aware, 30-day fresh-plaster protocol
- Pre-fill leak test (if not already done)
How it works
Dip handles surface and structure; we handle equipment, plumbing, and chemistry. One visit, two specialists, one quote.
Resurfacing jobs schedule 4–10 weeks out depending on season. Spring (Mar–Apr) and fall (Sep–Oct) are the right windows in Utah.
Dip crew handles the surface work, 5–14 days on-site depending on scope. We monitor equipment-pad during the work for plumbing tie-ins.
Critical 30-day window, fresh plaster cures into the water. We dose carefully, brush daily for the first week, and hold acid/scale balance to protect the new surface.
What to know about Utah pools
- Pools by Dip is our build team and the right Northern Utah crew for structural work. Same company. They handle the surface, we handle everything else, all coordinated as one project.
- Utah hard water + a fresh plaster surface is a chemistry challenge most service companies underestimate. Calcium drops out of solution onto curing plaster within 72 hours of refill. We've dosed the post-fill window often enough to have a standard 30-day protocol.
- Resurfacing is the most expensive pool service decision most owners ever make. We give you both the cost case (replaster vs. pebble vs. full renovation) and the timing case (now vs. wait 2 years).
- If the structural work is small (a few feet of broken tile, one cracked coping stone, a torn Deck-O-Seal joint), we'll quote and handle in-house without a Dip handoff.
