Marble Dusting Gunite Swimming Pool on Long Island in Cedarhurst NY

Marble dusting is a smooth plaster finish applied to the gunite pool or spa. It’s a mixture of highly refined white cement and crushed marble. This material can be dyed into many colors or purchased in a specific color and aggregate pattern. While white, or anything in the gray spectrum including black is common, exposed aggregate finishes can provide a unique look to your pool.
The marble dust is applied up to the water line followed by rows of tile of your choice. The Marble Dust and Tile offer an attractive finish to your Gunite Pool and Spa Scape.
The 3 Most Common Pool Surface Types
Plaster - Generally, new gunite pools are coated with pool plaster, which is cement mixed with marble sand or limestone. It is the least expensive option for pool surfacing and typically lasts around 7 years.
Pebble - Pebble finishes as a pool surface are just plaster with aggregate mixed in. The addition of aggregate makes this more durable and white stain-resistant than plaster alone. Pebble finishes can be somewhat rough and cost twice as much as plaster, but the upside is that they often last over 12 years.
Quartz - A quartz-finished pool surface has plaster with quartz aggregate mixed in. This provides more color than pebbles and is a more stain-resistant option for your pool. A quartz finish will usually last 12-15 years.
