What affects the price
Every pool is different — that's why we inspect first
Online price guides can only get you so far. The actual cost depends on your specific pool — size, shape, what we're working with, and what we find once we look. A small plunge pool and a large freeform with a spa can differ by $10,000 or more using the exact same finish.
The free inspection takes the guesswork out. We measure, assess the existing surface, identify any repairs needed, and give you a written estimate with an exact number — not a range, not a ballpark. You'll know what you're paying before you commit to anything.
No obligation, no pressure. If the price isn't right for your budget, we'll tell you which options would bring it down.
Free, no obligation
The inspection is free. The written estimate is free. You only pay when you decide to move forward.
Itemized pricing
Every component listed separately: materials, labor, prep, repairs, permits. No hidden line items.
30-day price hold
Your written estimate is valid for 30 days. The price we quote is the price you pay.
The details
6 factors that affect your price
01
Pool size & shape
The biggest factor. Surface area (square footage of interior) determines material and labor. Freeform pools with curves, steps, and benches cost more than rectangles.
02
Finish type
Plaster is the most affordable. Quartz and pebble cost more upfront but last longer. Warranty depends on the manufacturer of the materials selected*.
03
Existing surface condition
Cracks, structural damage, hollow spots, or active leaks add repair costs before resurfacing begins. The free inspection identifies these before you commit to anything.
04
Accessibility
How easy is it to get equipment to your pool? Tight backyard access, fences, narrow side yards, or heavy landscaping can add time and cost.
05
Additional work
Waterline tile: $1,000–$3,000+. Coping repair: $1,500–$4,000+. Deck resurfacing: $2,000–$6,000+. Underground plumbing: varies. We itemize everything in the written estimate.
06
Season
Fall and winter are ideal for resurfacing in Florida. Some companies offer off-season pricing — ask us about current availability when you call.

Smart spending
4 ways to save on pool resurfacing
Bundle services
Resurface the pool and deck together for package pricing, one crew, and one permit. Most homeowners save 10–15% versus doing them separately.
Choose the right finish for your situation
If you're planning to move within 5–7 years, a quartz or pebble upgrade doesn't pay for itself. Colored plaster at $5,800+ gives you a clean, durable pool without over-investing. We help you match the finish to your timeline.
Address leaks early
A small repair now prevents a much larger bill later. If you suspect a leak, getting it fixed before resurfacing protects your new surface.
Price match guarantee
Bring us a competitor's written estimate for the same scope of work and we'll beat it on 99% of comparable projects. Same materials, same warranty, lower price.

Common questions
Frequently asked
What is the average cost of pool resurfacing in Orlando? +
Most Orlando pool resurfacing projects start at $4,500 for quartz and go up from there depending on the finish. Colored plaster starts at $5,800. Pebble and mini pebble start at $8,500. Glass tile starts at $13,000. Pool size, shape, and condition all affect the final number. We provide a free written estimate after the inspection so you know the exact price before committing.
What factors affect the price the most? +
Pool size and finish type are the two biggest factors. Beyond those, the condition of the existing surface matters — cracks, hollow spots, structural damage, and active leaks all add repair work. Accessibility (how easy it is to get equipment to the pool) and any add-on work (waterline tile, coping, deck) also shift the number. The free inspection identifies all of this upfront so there are no surprises.
What is included in the free written estimate? +
A complete scope of work: surface area, finish type, surface prep details, any repairs identified, waterline tile (if applicable), materials, labor, timeline, and total price. We itemize everything so you can see exactly where the money goes. The estimate is good for 30 days and there's no obligation to move forward.
Do you offer financing for pool resurfacing? +
We can discuss payment options during your free estimate. Many homeowners choose to finance larger projects (pebble, glass tile) and pay over time. Ask us about current options when we meet.
Are there any hidden costs I should know about? +
No. We include everything in the written estimate. The only variables are what we discover during the free inspection — cracks, leaks, or substrate damage. If we find something, we tell you and quote it before doing the work. There are no surprise change orders and no pressure to add services you don't need.
How long will the new surface last? +
White and colored plaster: 10–15 years. Quartz: 15–20. Pebble: lifetime warranty available in some cases*. Glass tile: 20+ years. Premium finishes cost more upfront but deliver better long-term value when you stay in the home.
Why is there such a wide range between finishes? +
Plaster is the most affordable because the material and labor are simplest. Quartz adds crystalline material that costs more but lasts longer. Pebble uses natural stone exposed through the surface, hand-troweled by skilled crews. Glass tile is the most labor-intensive, with each tile set individually. The price difference reflects the materials, the skill required, and the lifespan you get.
How accurate are these starting prices? +
The "starting at" prices are accurate for standard residential pools (400–600 sq ft of surface area) in the Orlando market. Your actual price depends on your specific pool — size, shape, condition, finish choice, and any add-on work. The free estimate is the only way to get an exact number, and it's a written quote good for 30 days.
