Charleston’s salt air, coastal humidity, and intense UV break down pool surfaces faster than most homeowners expect. We apply ecoFINISH® polymer coatings to concrete and fiberglass pools that create a sealed, non-porous barrier — stopping chemical absorption, salt corrosion, and UV fading at the surface level. One application. 10-year warranty. Swim-ready in hours.
Most pool finishes in the Charleston area were designed for milder climates. Lowcountry conditions — salt air from the harbor and rivers, humidity that holds above 80% for months, and direct UV from April through October — compress the lifespan of standard plaster to 5–7 years and gel coat to 8–10. Our ecoFINISH® polymer coatings are non-porous by design. They don’t absorb chemicals, salt deposits, or moisture. That’s why pools we coat still look sharp after a decade while replastered pools down the street are already showing etch marks and stress cracks.
Professional resurfacing and coating solutions designed to restore, protect, and transform your pool.
Fading gel coat or peeling paint on your fiberglass pool? Our polyFIBRO® coating bonds directly to the shell — restoring a smooth, sealed finish that won’t blister or chalk again.
Cracked plaster, etched gunite, or stained concrete draining your time and money? aquaBRIGHT™ seals gunite and concrete interiors with a non-porous polymer layer — no more replastering every 5 years.
Structural cracks, delamination, or rough texture making your pool unusable? We assess and repair the substrate first, then coat it with a durable finish engineered to outlast the original.
We use cutting-edge ecoFINISH® polymer coatings to create a completely sealed, non-porous surface over your pool’s interior. Unlike plaster that absorbs chemicals and breeds algae in its texture, our thermally applied finish blocks stains, resists UV degradation, and stands up to Charleston’s salt air — transforming aging pools into low-maintenance surfaces that hold their color and smoothness for years, not months.
When your pool surface starts failing, you need a contractor who knows Charleston — not just pools. The salt air rolling in from Charleston Harbor and the Ashley, Cooper, and Wando Rivers deposits chloride on every outdoor surface in the metro area. Add humidity that rarely drops below 70%, summer water temperatures above 86°F, and UV intensity among the highest on the East Coast, and you have conditions that eat through standard pool finishes twice as fast as the national average.
That’s why Charleston homeowners who’ve been through one or two replastering cycles end up calling us. We’re not a general pool company that also does resurfacing. Coatings are our only trade — and we’ve applied them to concrete, fiberglass, and gunite pools across every neighborhood in the Lowcountry, from Daniel Island and Mount Pleasant to James Island, Sullivan’s Island, Summerville, and Goose Creek. We understand how Charleston’s specific climate, water chemistry, and soil conditions affect every project we take on.
Our ecoFINISH® surfaces are completely non-porous, which locks out chemical stains and makes it nearly impossible for algae to take hold. Spend less time scrubbing and more time swimming.
We are committed to delivering hassle-free pool resurfacing with long-lasting, high-quality results our clients trust.

Most residential pool resurfacing projects in the Charleston area range from $5,000 to $15,000 depending on pool size, surface type (concrete vs. fiberglass), current condition, and how much prep work is needed. Standard replastering is the cheapest option but lasts only 5–7 years in the Lowcountry climate. Our ecoFINISH® polymer coatings cost more upfront but last 10–15+ years — meaning the cost per year of use is actually lower. We provide free on-site estimates with transparent, itemized pricing.
Most residential pools are completed in 1–2 working days. Unlike traditional plaster, which requires a 28-day cure period with strict daily water chemistry management before you can safely swim, our ecoFINISH® coatings cure almost immediately on contact. You can typically refill your pool and swim within 24–48 hours of the final application.
Plaster is a cementitious mix applied wet over your pool shell. It's porous — it absorbs chemicals, stains easily, and breeds algae in its texture. It typically lasts 5–7 years in coastal South Carolina and requires a 28-day startup cure. ecoFINISH® polymer coatings are thermally fused to the pool shell, creating a non-porous, sealed membrane. They don't absorb water or chemicals, resist algae growth, and cure immediately. Lifespan: 10–15+ years with significantly less ongoing maintenance.
Yes. Painted fiberglass pools are one of the most common problems we see in the Charleston area. Paint traps moisture between itself and the gel coat, which accelerates blistering and delamination underneath where you can't see it. We strip all paint layers, repair any osmotic damage to the fiberglass shell, and apply polyFIBRO® directly to the substrate — creating a permanent, factory-quality finish that won't peel again.
Common signs include rough texture when you run your hand across the wall, persistent staining that won't brush off, visible hairline cracks, chalky residue in the water, fading or uneven color, and increased chemical demand to keep the water balanced. If your plaster pool is 7+ years old or your fiberglass gel coat is 10+ years old in Charleston's climate, the surface has likely reached end of life. We offer free inspections to confirm the condition and walk you through your options.
Absolutely. Charleston's combination of salt air, high humidity, and intense UV accelerates surface degradation on traditional plaster and paint far faster than in inland areas. A polymer coating creates a sealed, non-porous barrier that withstands these conditions where conventional finishes fail. Many Charleston homeowners who previously replastered every 5–7 years find our ecoFINISH® coatings still look new after a full decade.
We serve the entire Charleston Lowcountry including Mount Pleasant, Daniel Island, James Island, Johns Island, West Ashley, Sullivan's Island, Isle of Palms, Folly Beach, North Charleston, Goose Creek, Summerville, Hanahan, and surrounding communities across Charleston, Berkeley, and Dorchester counties.
