The benefits of Pebblecrete resurfacing

Choosing a Pebblecrete pool finish isn’t just about aesthetics – though it certainly adds aesthetic appeal. It’s a smart, cost-effective solution that balances form and function. Here’s why many clients choose Pebblecrete resurfacing:

Compared to other resurfacing materials, Pebblecrete compares favourably in terms of durability, appearance and energy efficiency. It’s no wonder it’s one of the most popular pool resurface options on the market.

Types of pebble pool finishes

At O’Sullivan Swimming Pool Interiors, we offer two distinct finish ranges. You can explore both on our Products page.

Standard pebble range

This classic option features small pebbles in natural tones, creating a textured, long-lasting finish. It’s ideal for families or businesses wanting a traditional yet elegant Pebblecrete surface that complements any pool shape or size.

Glass pebble pool finish

Combining natural stone with glass beads, this range delivers sparkle and dimension under the water. A glass pebble pool finish is perfect for those seeking a premium look and a smooth, less slippery surface that enhances the overall outdoor aesthetic.

Both options are excellent choices – it all depends on your style, maintenance expectations, and how the surface details influence your enjoyable swimming experience.

Our pool resurface process

Our proven pebble pool resurfacing process ensures a flawless finish every time – from old pools to new Pebblecrete surfaces.

1. Initial assessment

We inspect the pool’s surface, looking for cracks, wear or issues affecting the pool’s structural integrity.

2. Preparation and cleaning

We drain the pool water, clear away debris, and address any damage to the surface. We also remove calcium deposits or surface imperfections.

3. Application

Your selected Pebblecrete pool or glass pebble pool finish is applied using our expert resurfacing technique – suited to both concrete pools and fibreglass pools.

4. Curing and sealing

The surface is then sealed to enhance durability, limit maintenance needs, and reduce the chance of algae growth.

Pebblecrete FAQs

Pebblecrete pool resurfacing cost typically ranges from $7,000 to $15,000, depending on your pool size, finish choice, and the condition of your existing surface. Larger or older concrete pools may require extra prep, such as removing calcium deposits or repairing a damaged surface, which can affect pricing. Premium upgrades like a glass pebble pool finish will also increase the cost. We provide detailed, transparent quotes after inspecting your pool area, so you’ll know exactly what’s involved before we begin.

With proper care, a new Pebblecrete surface can last 15 to 25 years. It’s one of the most durable pool resurface options, especially suited to South East Queensland’s climate. Unlike paint or tiles, Pebblecrete resists cracks, fading, and algae growth, and doesn’t require frequent maintenance. Keeping your pool water balanced and occasionally resealing the surface helps maintain a well-maintained pool with lasting aesthetic appeal.

We can apply Pebblecrete resurfacing to most concrete pools and fibreglass pools, as well as previously resurfaced pools. The process depends on your existing surface and may involve extra prep for older or painted pools. Whether your swimming pool is large, small, new or old, we tailor the pool resurface process to suit. Our team will assess your setup, confirm compatibility, and recommend the best Pebblecrete installation project approach.

Yes — Pebblecrete pool finishes are naturally slip resistant, making them ideal for families. They’re textured enough to offer grip, even when wet, while also helping prevent algae growth. Our finishes suit all ages, from toddlers to older swimmers. You can also customise your Pebblecrete surface to balance safety and style, with smoother or grippier options depending on your needs.

Pebblecrete compares favourably to paint, fibreglass and tiles. Unlike paint, it doesn’t peel or fade quickly. Compared to tiles, it’s seamless and less prone to cracking. While fibreglass pools look sleek, they can suffer from blistering or lifting — issues Pebblecrete avoids. With its durability, texture, and outdoor aesthetic, Pebblecrete is a popular pool resurface option that balances appearance with low maintenance.

Low-maintenance swimming pools are one of the key benefits of Pebblecrete resurfacing. Brush the pool’s surface weekly, vacuum as needed, and keep the pool water balanced to prevent scaling or algae growth. You may want to reseal the surface every 5–7 years to keep it fresh. Compared to other finishes, Pebblecrete requires far less maintenance and is perfect if you want a cost-effective, long-lasting upgrade without the hassle.
