This project in Camden Park presented several challenges that required careful attention and problem-solving. The “L” shaped 10m x 3.5m pebblecrete pool had aged considerably, and the owners wanted to restore both its appearance and functionality. The need for pool resurfacing was evident, as the surface had worn down over time, making the pool less appealing and more difficult to maintain. Additionally, the feature wall of the pool required new tiling, but finding a skilled tiler proved to be a significant hurdle, which delayed the project.

Moreover, the hot weather posed a major issue during the process. Extreme heat can affect the quality of the resurfacing material, making it prone to damage if not carefully managed. The team took extra precautions to protect the pool from direct sunlight, ensuring the resurfacing work remained uncompromised. Despite these obstacles, the priority remained clear: to deliver a high-quality pool resurfacing that would stand the test of time.

The team quickly adapted to the unexpected challenge of securing a tiler, sourcing the expertise needed to tile the feature wall to perfection. Their flexibility maintained the project’s momentum and ensured the successful completion of the pool resurfacing. With the right strategies and expert handling, the project in Camden Park overcame the difficulties and set the stage for a much-needed transformation.

About Project

Fibrestyle undertook a comprehensive pool renovation for a pebblecrete pool in Camden Park. The pool, in an "L" shape and measuring 10m by 3.5m, needed resurfacing and additional work on a feature wall. Initially, the owner was unable to secure a tiler for the wall, so our team stepped in to complete the tiling, causing a slight delay in the overall timeline. Additionally, due to the extremely hot weather, we had to ensure that the pool’s surface was protected from the sun throughout the process, as heat exposure can compromise the quality of the finish. Despite these challenges, the pool was completed with exceptional results.

For this resurfacing project, we followed the following process:

  1. Drain the pool.
  2. Remove the hydrostatic valve.
  3. Remove damaged/"drummy" areas to existing surfaces (up to 2sqm).
  4. Tile the feature wall.
  5. Prepare pool surface to accommodate new fibreglass interior.
  6. Cut out and treat rust.
  7. Apply a Primer Coat.
  8. Apply Reinforcing Material (Fibreglass Laminate).
  9. Apply Bulk Resin Coat over Fibreglass Laminate.
  10. Apply Filler Coat (undercoat).
  11. Apply Final Topcoat (colour of your choice).
  12. Apply a non-slip surface to step treads.
  13. Replace hydrostatic valve.
