Plastering your pool keeps its surfaces strong and waterproof. Additionally, it helps maintain a uniform appearance and comfort underfoot. But before you hire a pool plastering company, you want to be certain you're hiring professionals who can handle the demands of the job. To help you find the best candidate, below are a few qualities to look for.

What to Look for in a Pool Plastering Company

1. Skill

First and foremost, a pool plastering company should have the skills necessary to tackle the work at hand. Plastering is a meticulous, multi-step process that involves prepping, pre-plastering, applying bonding agents, and much more—all within a brief period of time. The best ways to determine if a company has the necessary skills is to educate yourself about the process and ask questions. Hire a company that concentrates on plastering; if it’s one of their specialties, they likely have the expertise needed.

2. Quality

They should be able to provide you with previous work samples that highlight the range of their abilities and experience. These images should make you excited about hiring the company in question and feel confident in choosing them to address your plastering needs. Look specifically at the quality of the work, the professionalism of the finished paint-job, and the aesthetics of any finishes that may have been used, such as stones or glass.

3. Reputation

Check consumer review websites, talk to friends and neighbors who have pools, and ask prospective plastering companies if you can speak with former clients. All of these resources will tell you if the company has the skill and track record to plaster your pool. Find out if the company completed the work on time and on budget. Also, ask about the quality and appearance of the finished project, as well as the comfort underfoot and the pool’s ability to securely retain water. Finally, see if the owners have had to have the pool replastered since; a typical plastering job should last at least seven years.
