pebbletec

I’m getting quotes to resurface my pool with pebble. It is currently diamond bright and I’ve never liked it, plus we now have stains from a careless roofer. What questions should I be asking of the installers? I don’t want to get through the process and look back and wish I had known to ask...

Hi TFP Community! I recently had my pool resurfaced with StoneScapes Aqua White Mini Pebble. After the surface was installed, but before the pool was filled, water from my auto-fill valve leaked on the surface creating a puddle, with water running down to the deep end. It left a whitish...

Hi all- ::::Big sigh here:::: So, last week I saw a video on youtube where someone used a sock full of vitamin c to eradicate metal staining in his pool. I tried it in a small spot and it worked! I instantly went to amazon and bought a gallon of powdered vitamin C and went nuts. Dumped the...

Our pool was refinished about 35 days ago with PebbleSheen French Gray. From a distance, it looks beautiful. However, when you get closer to it, the finish is very splotchy and uneven because the French Gray is so dark and the other areas are so much lighter. We also have some bigger pieces...

I dove (NO DIVING - Max Depth 5ft) jumped into pool ownership in Oct 2021 when I bought my house in AZ. I pool stored myself for a year and paid a service for 6 months but have finally found the light that is the TFP method! Truthfully I read a few things here back in 2021 but didn’t read the...

I had my pebble installed recently and specifically upgraded to a color to have minimal dark specs in the pool (arctic white). They ended up installing pebble and it’s super inconsistent in the pool with areas that look nothing like the pebble I upgraded to and more like the standard color...

I’m at the tail end of my owner-builder pool build in Temecula, CA and am in need of a contractor that does pebble. I am looking for something close to the NPT QuartzScapes Montego Bay. I’m not having much luck with the list of contractors I was provided. Thank you in advance

We are in the Dallas, TX area, and had our 29k gal saltwater pool resurfaced in March of 2020 from plain white plaster to Ocean Blue PebbleSheen. We spent $12k. On the final day of installation, the company called and explained that the final step, the acid wash, should take between 4-5 hours...

Hello, So we chose to go with KrystalKrete Quartz color "VERDE". Has anyone used this brand quartz for their pool finish and anything good/bad to say about it? Thanks! Mike

We will be re-re-tiling our pool deck at the end of the month. Need to drain pool for about one week due to anticipated mess. I could not find a thread for pool startup on used pebble-tec (not a new build). Also, It’s still hot here (Carefree AZ). Tile guy says pebble tec not at risk for one week.

Hello, We are in the middle of having a new 16x28 concrete pool built. We have gone with Pebble Tec mini pebble - Tahoe Blue. We have been told that we can add in Portofino Glass into the Tahoe Blue mixture. We have not been able to find any pictures to show us what this would look like. Has...

New to TFP, and I’ve read several posts about pool finishes here so we’ve at least narrowed it down some. My quandary is picking our finish between white plaster, Pebble Fina, or Wet Edge Primera Stone. As you can tell we want a smooth pool finish. I know the other two upgraded choices will...

Atlanta Area New Pool Build

Help with proper fix/product. Started with a suspected pool leak. Did't intend to pull tile off, but hollow sounds made me suspicious and the loose tile coincide with the sidewall cracks in pebbletec. Above each of those areas is an expansion gap in the decking. I'm no pro, but it seems to...

Perhaps I'm wasting my time and should just have my pool resurfaced, but I'm not there yet. We had to drain the pool to fix a crack in a bench area. That has been done and patched. Not a perfect match but I can live with it for now. Wife says we'll die in this house so I'm fine with it. :)...
