Family Pools will
evaluate your existing pool surface and make a
determination of the necessary preparations needed
to resurface your pool depending on visual signs
that we recognize from experience. The pool surface
may need to be sand blasted or chipped out
completely if it is determined to not be of sound
condition to apply a plaster coating. This can
effect the price of the project because of the extra
labor and material required. We will evaluate the
condition of the tile and grout. We may advise you
that your pool needs to have new grout applied. If
the tile is in poor condition we would suggest that
it is time to replace the tile at this point. We
will ask you if your pool leaks. If the answer is
yes then we will suggest you let us do a leak
detection prior to draining the pool. Finding the
leak and resolving the problem ahead of time before
the project commences is required.The swimming pool
surface may be your cause of the water leaking but
you don't want to install a new pool surface and
find out later that the pool leak is in an area that
requires us to now jack hammer a hole in the new
pool surface to fix the leak. We will discuss your
pool plaster surface choices at this point. We will
take great care explaining the product line and
warranty terms for each product. Look in our
Products section for more information of surface
choices.
Once you made all
of your choices it will be time to start the pool
resurface job. Family Pools has pool popping
insurance. This is very important item to have when
a swimming pool company drains your pool. Family
Pools is versed in the process of relieving the
hydrostatic water pressure that is under your pool.
Look in your folder with your contract for your
policy. Once the pool is drained we will proceed
with all preparations needed to apply the new
surface then apply the surface to manufacture
standards. Family Pools will never mix plaster in
your pool with a drill and whip or we will not mix
the pool plaster in your yard with a portable mixer
and wheel it to your pool. We only use specialized
pool plastering trucks that mix the material on the
truck and pump it to the pool. This is important
because we can spray two coats on at the proper
thickness. Once the plaster is applied we will
expose it properly so it looks like the sample
before we leave. We will start the water in the pool
so it can fill. Once it is filled we can then add
the necessary starting chemical. Please call or e-mail us
with questions or requests for free estimates. Our
finance application is located in our

Vinyl Liner
Family Pools Inc.
installs liners in existing swimming pools. We take
care of the process from start to finish. Measuring
the liner to installing the vinyl liner. We use the
proper gaskets needed to do the job and install new
ladder bumpers. Its impossible to determine if there
are latent defects in the existing pool structure
such as rusted wall panels, vermiculite floor
damaged, wall sections shifted, and many other
hidden items that the liner covers. Sometimes there
can be extra charges to fix items that are
unforeseen by us at the time of the estimate. Family
Pools Inc. also can convert your vinyl liner pool
into a concrete swimming pool if you like. We have
done many of these vinyl liner conversions in the
past and can guide you in the right direction.
A word on liner
thickness. There is a misconception that the thicker
the mill a liner the longer it will last. This is
not always true. The thicker 27mill vinyl liners are
designed for sand bottom floors. They help the
puncture ability of the material when the bottom is
soft. If the floor is a Vermiculite or concrete then
19 or 20 mill will do the trick. The 27 mill liner
is more expensive and not needed in some cases. All
thickness liners last the same amount of time in the
water. The mill has no bearing on the ability for a
liner to handle its biggest enemy."Chlorine"
Chlorine introduction can kill liners. I can't tell
you how many times I walk up to an old liner and see
it bleached out. I always advise my customers to add
a chemical feeder and turn it to the lowest setting.
Never dump chlorine from the jug into a vinyl liner
swimming pool. The liner will not last long if you
do that. Salt Chlorine Generators are real additions
to a liner pool. If you have one added to the pool
it will save your liner from getting bleached out
quickly. One word of caution here. I really don't
recommend adding the salt system to a liner pool
with steel walls unless they are primed before hand.
Most of the liner pools in my service area have
fiberglass walls. Call Family Pools Inc. for your
