After that the surface goes rough, algae roots into the texture and no amount of chemical treatment keeps it clear.
Signs you need resurfacing
- The floor feels rough or chalky underfoot
- Staining that will not brush out
- Visible patches where the plaster has delaminated and sounds hollow
- Chlorine consumption has climbed with no other explanation
Options
If you are going to the expense of draining a pool, hacking off the old finish and re-preparing the shell, the labour is the same whatever you put back. The material difference between plaster and tile is smaller than people assume once labour is counted.
The process
Drain, hack off the old finish, inspect and repair the shell, re-render, re-waterproof, flood test, then apply the new finish.
What matters in Dubai
Dubai pool work needs coordination with the property layout, drainage and the surrounding landscape. A clear scope should separate structural work from finishes and equipment. That makes it easier to see what is included before work starts.
What to check before work starts
The existing pool or room should be inspected as a complete system. Visible damage may sit beside a separate problem in the pipework, controls, waterproofing or ventilation. A written scope should identify the affected parts and state which surrounding surfaces need protection or opening.
The site around the pool affects the technical choice. Access, drainage, planting and the position of the plant room should be reviewed together. A design that ignores the property usually creates awkward maintenance access later.
