At D&J The Pool Resurfacers, Choosing the Right Finish Means Choosing Long-Term Value
When planning a pool resurfacing in Orlando, one of the first questions we get from homeowners is:
“What’s the best finish for my pool?”
There’s no single right answer, it depends on your style, your maintenance goals, and how long you want your pool to last.
At D&J The Pool Resurfacers, we specialize in two main interior finishes: Pebble and Quartz (commonly called plaster). These are the materials that line the inside of your pool — not the decorative tile around the edges, which serves a different purpose.
Here’s what makes each one unique and how to choose the right option for your Florida home.
🪨 Pebble Finish: Natural Beauty with Lifetime Warranty
Pebble finishes, especially PebbleTec®, are a favorite among Orlando homeowners who want a durable, elegant, and low-maintenance pool surface.
This material combines natural pebbles to create a textured surface that reflects light beautifully and resists the effects of sun, chemicals, and time.
Why homeowners love PebbleTec®:
- Lifetime warranty: PebbleTec® offers a lifetime guarantee on its finish — a key reason many homeowners choose it.
- Durability: Lasts 20+ years with minimal maintenance.
- Slip-resistant surface: Ideal for families and active swimmers.
- Resists fading and algae: Built to withstand Florida’s hot, humid climate.
💡 Did you know?
In the Orlando area, only two authorized companies are certified to install PebbleTec® — and D&J The Pool Resurfacers is proudly one of them.
Being an authorized installer means our team is trained and certified to apply PebbleTec® exactly as intended, ensuring the color, texture, and bond meet the brand’s highest standards.
That’s why our pool resurfacing Orlando projects with PebbleTec® not only look stunning but also perform beautifully for decades.
⚪ Quartz Finish: A Classic, Smooth, and Reliable Option
Quartz finishes (often called “plaster”) are the traditional choice for many Florida homes. They’re smooth to the touch, customizable in color, and offer a timeless, clean appearance that fits any pool design.
Benefits of quartz finishes:
- Budget-friendly: A cost-effective way to refresh your pool.
- Customizable colors: From bright whites to deep blues and grays.
- Durable: Lasts more than 10 years with proper maintenance.
While quartz requires a bit more care than PebbleTec®, it’s an excellent choice for homeowners looking for an elegant surface that stays beautiful with regular maintenance.
At D&J, we use only high-quality quartz blends to ensure your pool’s finish is smooth, uniform, and resistant to Florida’s unique water conditions.
🏡 Our Expert Recommendation for Orlando Homes
- Choose PebbleTec® if you want the highest durability, a natural texture, and the peace of mind of a lifetime warranty.
- Choose Quartz if you prefer a smooth, traditional surface and a more accessible price point.
Both options are excellent, but your decision depends on your priorities — long-term investment or short-term refresh.
At D&J The Pool Resurfacers, we’ll help you explore both materials, show real samples, and guide you toward the finish that best suits your home, your family, and your lifestyle.
