Thank you for taking the time to document your replastering project. Our 16x36ft pool has reached a point where is needs to be resurfaced and I've been quoted approximately $25k for the job. I'm considering doing it myself and your video has definitely shown that it is really a 3 person effort. Much appreciated and BTW your finished project looks great!

Great instructional video.. thanks

Short, sweet and to the point. Thank you sir !

Sure looks good in the video

Very nice job !!! Why you didn’t choose to epoxy paint ?

Does his first name start with P

Can you do mine 😅

I would hire a pool plastering co. They do it right

Great video and great inspiration. Thank you! A++++

Wow this was awesome to see. Thanks for recording the process and sharing all the issues and tips!

Where do you buy the plaster

Wow, your grit and determination are inspiring! I'm 59 too, and you've totally motivated me to tackle resurfacing my pool. Thanks a bunch for sharing your experience-it's really well done

Im debating on doing my pool myself. I dont know what I should do if i should just pour plaster over my old delaminated plaster? Or should i rip off all of my old plaster and follow your steps?

Did you do the acid wash in the pool prior to resurfacing? I know you did it in the spa. And you said you were going to do it in the pool. I’m doing this exact task right now but possibly skipping the acid wash because it doesn’t look like I really need it. I don’t have calcium buildup.🤷🏼‍♂️ @danbury210

Overview of material costs ( I had most of the tools). Side-Crete Plaster 15-bags $2242 used everyone, cut it too close for 14,000 gallon pool. Slider-Crete Repair (1-bag) & M50 (1-gallon) cost $150, 18” Magic Trowel $42, total material cost $2,431. Miscellaneous tools must have quality combination chisel/hammer drill, tape, rollers, brushes another $500. The hot tub costs are separate from above, I used actual pool plaster on it, that was probably another $500.

It has been over one year now and the finish still looking good with no issues. I am check my pool water weekly so not to get in this situation again hopefully.

how did you find the leak my pool has one I need to figure out where the leak is at

How long did it take for you to finish this?

Question, I'm thinking about doing the same project to save $16k, Do I need to chip off all the old plaster on my pool?

Hello Dan, this has been by far the best How-To video. I am planning on resurfacing our pool. I believe ours might be a bit smaller. You definitely did a great job buddy. I'm 56 and like you said, if you did it so I can😁. Can you share the company information. Thank you and I hope I will be able to share with you the progress once I started. 🙏

Honestly one of the best DIY videos Ive seen in a long time, start to finish and no sugar coating the entire process, great job wife + hubby

Hey, great job, we're in Frisco, would you recommend the Sider crete product still? what others did you consider? how much were pro quotes? guessing 15k gallon pool there?

Want to help out with my pool? I’m in the 210 as well haha

Hat’s off to you and your wife for attempting to do this project! I am a pool owner in Canada as well as I am blessed to have a vacation home in California with a pool. Both pools require a lot of maintenance and over the years I feel that pools are a HUGE expense if you have to always call the pool companies to come and fix issues that you are having. Not only that, it seems you are always waiting and waiting for them to show up. Always excuses why they can’t be there. I have found a way to get through it. DO THE WORK AND REPAIRS YOURSELF . If you can. I’m going to be renovation my californien pool this winter and my wife and I will be trying this Sider Crete system. We are very handy and work well together( 37 years). I am not prepared to pay thousands and thousands of dollars for a resurfaced pool when we think this system can work for many years if proper systems are followed by manufacturer. Yes. It’s going to be very hard work and a few long days, but that what makes it all worth saving the money…. I think when it’s all said and done, we will be proud of what we accomplished as well as the look we desired as you and your wife should be. Job well done buddy!!!

Nice Job! How many bags did it take?

I have a 20X40 concrete pool built sometime in the 50's. It's 44,000 gals of water. It's 10 feet deep on the deepest end. I have P W and acid washed it to paint it several times over the years. We have lived here 52 years so of course now it really needs complete resurface which at 85 yrs. old I know I can't handle alone. Pool companies here in Fl. want $25,000. or more to do it. Not sure if I could use the product you did due to it being concrete. I do have some much younger friends that possibly I could get to help. I would never do it during the summer as we would all end up toast. Pools built here in my county aren't allowed to be over 6 feet deep and no diving boards which I really miss. You and your wife made a great team. I am a widow now but my husb. never did like the pool when we bought this place so I have always been the maintenance person in charge of it. Can't bring myself to fill it in with dirt and besides the next owner might enjoy as much as I and my kids, grand, and great grand kids have. You should be so proud of yourselves and have a real sense of accomplishment.

Amazing video. Thank you

Awesome video..We just bought a home w/a pool in Paris Texas..We bought it in February and finally got moved in and pool opened this past week, and I'm gonna want to do this as this pool was resurfaced like 15 years ago and needs some TLC..Companies are charging some crazy prices and if I can do it myself I'm gonna...

Yep, I did it on my own on a 25,000 gallon pool and spa. It’s very hard work but you save a lot of money. Also, Ivan was awesome in customer service and guided me through the process. I recommend this product if you are willing to put in the hard work.

When you put that roll-on plaster over the tape that you masked off the tiles, was it difficult to remove with the hardened plaster dried on. I’m thinking about doing this job pretty much exactly like you have done it, and I was curious if I should peel the tape off while the plaster is wet and then for the second coat tape again. I am a new pool owner and destroyed my finish like you mentioned you did. I also have some tiles imbedded on the steps. So peeling the tape off when the plaster is wet is what I’m thinking. You did a great job with the video. Thank you so much! Anthony

I noticed your cantilevered umbrella - very smart! I’m a wuss working in hot weather, so I cover small areas with umbrellas. For large areas I suspend shade canopies and/or tarps. I keep a big roll of cord & a bunch of carabiners so they go up fast.

This is FABULOUS! I’m going to be doing this real soon! Fortunately, I have a much smaller pool. 😆

Great job! Wish I was 20 years younger so I could do mine. Thanks for sharing

Hey Danbury210, im from Texas too lol. Where did you buy your sider crete repair and plaster from??? Couldn't find any from the chain stores here

How smooth is the finish?

Hey buddy, I am proud of you and your wife for taking on such a big DIY project. I am 55 and will be resurfacing my pool. The job will be almost like yours. My pool has some damage on the walls and floor with a few holes. I live in Florida, so I know I will have to work very fast, and I will need to fix the light which I would like to add to the Multicolor. I had a company giving me an estimate and it was a little pricy at $7,500 with the light. I understand it is business, something out of the budget for now. Thanks a lot for sharing your experience. -Jorge

The 60sf per kit is for two coats, not one. :)

How many sides kits did you have to purchase?

I was curious to know how the product is holding up so far. I'm considering using this product but there is not much info on the internet to do a research. Thanks!

Update - 03-14-2023 Pool & Spa still looking good

Great job, I'm leaning toward doing the same thing, do you know how many gallons your pool is? Trying to make a comparison. Thanks for the post

You’re a stud for taking on this project. Professional homeowner right here.

Beautiful renovation project, thank you for sharing!!!

so, how does one fix it so it never happens again?

My TCL smart Tv already got thatvi had it 2 years i just notice 2020

Mines shows small black dots. When I go into my settings menu, it's even worst. I hope the chip is my only concern. Thx

Thanks for the video, god job , god bless you.

What would you have to do just to replace the glass itself?
