Replaster Best Method

Drain the pool and relieve the hydrostatic pressure. G&B then does a Hydro Demo (40,000 PSI) over every square inch of the existing plaster surface to remove all organics, loose and hollow plaster and to etch the remaining surface to create a superior anchor pattern for the new pool finish.

Our process utilizes a water jetting machine and allows G&B to provide the best surface profile possible for the new plaster to adhere to. Our process allows G&B to forgo the use of acid and bond coat in our prep process with superior results. We also do not need to sandblast paint in instances where pools have been painted prior to prepping our pools.

G&B’s method also eliminates any delays due to weather concerns. With bond coat, plaster companies need to be concerned with potential rain washing out their bond coat and with cold temperatures during the winter. If the temperatures fall below freezing during the night, it can crystallize the moisture still in the bond coat and cause it to fail.
