Why Your Swimming Pool Needs Repainting

A pool coating is a waterproofing layer working under permanent immersion, constant chemical attack and full UV. Nothing else on a property is asked to do all three at once, and that is why pool finishes have a defined service life rather than lasting indefinitely.

When the coating goes, the pool starts losing water through the shell. Beyond the water cost, that leakage saturates the ground around the pool and can undermine paving and surrounding structures - in Green Point, where pools are often on constrained sites hard against a boundary or a building, that matters more than it would on a large plot.

There is also a practical local constraint worth planning around. A pool has to be drained, prepared, coated and fully cured before refilling, which takes the pool out of service for a stretch. In a suburb with as much short-let and holiday letting as Green Point, doing that in December is an expensive choice.

Signs Your Pool Needs Repainting

  • Chalking - a cloudy residue that comes off on your hand or clouds the water after brushing
  • Colour fading, patchiness or a blotchy appearance across the shell
  • Flaking, blistering or peeling, particularly along the waterline
  • Rough, abrasive surfaces underfoot where the finish has worn through
  • Persistent algae staining that returns quickly after treatment, indicating a porous surface
  • Visible water loss beyond normal evaporation
  • Cracks in the shell, which need proper repair rather than coating over
  • Exposed fibreglass or bare plaster showing through the finish

How We Paint Your Swimming Pool - Step by Step

  • Identify the existing coating type first. Chlorinated rubber, epoxy and fibreglass are not compatible with one another and applying the wrong system over the old one guarantees failure
  • Drain the pool and let the shell dry properly - this is the step most likely to be rushed and most likely to cause problems
  • Acid wash or mechanically prepare the surface to remove scale, algae and chalked material
  • Repair cracks and hollow areas in the shell, allowing full cure before coating
  • Wash down thoroughly and neutralise, then allow complete drying
  • Apply the correct system in the specified number of coats, respecting recoat windows
  • Allow the full cure period before refilling. Refilling early is the single most common cause of premature pool coating failure
  • Advise on refill and chemical balancing so the new surface is not attacked in its first weeks

Pool Painting Tips for Best Results and Longest Life

  • Establish what is already on the shell before choosing a product. Incompatible systems is the leading cause of pool coating failure
  • Never rush the cure. The pool being out of action a few extra days is far cheaper than redoing the job next season
  • Schedule the work for the off-season. In Green Point that means avoiding December and January, both for the weather window and for the letting income
  • Keep chemistry balanced after refilling. Aggressive or unbalanced water attacks a new coating quickly
  • Brush the pool regularly. It removes the biofilm that holds algae against the surface
  • Repair shell cracks properly rather than coating over them - a crack is a structural issue and paint will not bridge it
  • Watch the waterline, which always fails first and is the earliest warning that a recoat is due

Pool Painting Questions From Our Clients

Professional pool painting service in Green Point - expert painters at work
How long does quality pool paint last?
Good pool paint lasts 3 to 6 years depending on the system used, usage levels, and how well the water chemistry is maintained. Epoxy and rubber-based systems last longest.
How long before we can swim after painting?
Most pool paints need 5 to 7 days of curing before filling, then 1 to 2 weeks of water balancing before it is safe to swim. We give you complete written instructions.
Can you paint over the existing pool paint?
It depends on what type of paint is already on the pool - different systems are not always compatible. We test and advise you on the correct approach before quoting.
