Our 4 -Step Renovation Process
Step 1
Site Visit
We visit your property to assess the condition of your existing pool and determine the level of remedial work needed. During this visit, we’ll also discuss your renovation goals, budget, and any features or upgrades you’re considering, so we can tailor the scope of work to suit your needs.
Step 2
Quote
You’ll receive a clear, tailored estimate for the full scope of work. Due to the nature of remedial work, some issues may only become apparent once we begin. In these cases, we’ll always advise you of any additional work required and provide a revised estimate before proceeding further — no surprises.
Step 3
Preparation & Resurfacing
Once approved, we schedule your renovation and begin preparation. This includes draining the pool, surface preparation, and any required structural repairs. We then apply the high-performance Mayfair fibreglass system to deliver a smooth, durable, watertight finish that’s built to last.
Step 4
Finishing & Handover
We complete any finishing touches such as pump shed upgrades, plumbing, and installing optional features like lighting or jets. Once everything is complete, we refill and balance your pool, walk you through the updates and our long-term servicing support, and ensure you're confident in caring for your newly renovated pool.

FAQ’s
-
Typically 1 to 2 weeks for fibreglass resurfacing. Additional features or repairs may extend timelines, which we discuss during your free consultation.
-
There are 3 key signs that your pool may need resurfacing:
1. Osmosis
Osmosis presents itself as blisters or bumps on the pool’s surface. These can vary in size and will eventually crack leaving black or brown marks on the pool surface. Algae formation (black algae) will often develop around these cracks leading to less than perfect swimming conditions for you and your family.
2. Cracks
Hairline cracks may appear as a sign of ageing, or as the result of your pool shell incurring pressure that exceeds its ability to flex with the earth’s surface. Severe cracks may compromise your pool’s structural stability and cause leaks.
3. Surface colour change
Direct exposure of sun rays and incorrect chemical treatment of water can lead to colour deterioration of your pool surface colour. Colour may start fading, and on fibreglass pools can leave behind a white flaky (sometimes described as ‘chalky’) surface. Regular pool maintenance, water testing and water treatment is the most effective way to ensure you get the most from your pool surface.
If you suspect your pool surface may be deteriorating and in need of a resurface, get in touch with us first and a member of our team will visit to make an assessment on the issue and provide you with an idea of what is required to bring your pool back to life.
DO NOT EMPTY YOUR POOL without first contacting us.
-
Both swimming pool renovation methods have their merits, however the best choice by far in terms of adding value to your pool is fibreglass resurfacing.
Longevity
Pool paint needs to be reapplied every 5 – 7 years, meaning you will need to empty your pool and undergo resurfacing much more frequently. Additionally, there is an inherent risk when emptying all swimming pools because of ground or hydrostatic pressures which can lift the pool out of the ground – not ideal.
Fibreglass resurfacing on the other hand has an extremely long lifespan and you should expect anywhere from 20 – 30 years from your investment.
Appearance
Pool paint will fade much quicker than fibreglass leaving your pool looking dull and lifeless. And if not maintained correctly, pool paint can turn chalky and hazy due to materials breaking down in your pool, leaving a chalky residue in the pool water.
Fibreglass comes in a huge range of colours and with well-maintained water will continue to look as-new for many years after resurfacing.
Added benefits
Fibreglass is extremely strong, hard-wearing, durable and has flexural strength you won’t find in any other pool surface. With superior resistance to water erosion and chemical interaction, fibreglass resurfacing is by far the better option if you are looking for long-term results and return on your investment.
Fibreglass is also a natural insulator, resulting in a warmer pool and longer swim season. Add to this a finished surface that is gentle on feet and non-porous and you have the ultimate resurfacing method.
Pool paint is purely aesthetic and will not add any structural integrity or insulation to your pool.
Cost
Whilst your up-front investment for fibreglass resurfacing is initially more than repainting, you are assured of less frequent recurring expenses, risk of things going wrong and a far greater lifespan from your investment.
