Loris is rural Horry County — tobacco-farm heritage, generational properties, and pool ownership that skews heavily toward family homesteads rather than seasonal investment. The pool surface conditions here are dominated by iron-rich well water, sustained inland humidity without coastal cooling, and the kind of long-tenured ownership that’s seen multiple replaster cycles fail on the same timeline. Our thermo-polymer coatings end the cycle.



The Loris pool inventory stretches across residential properties in town, rural homes throughout Horry County, and established communities extending toward Tabor City and Aynor. Many pools in the area rely on private well water with elevated iron and mineral content, creating a very different set of surface challenges compared to municipal-water pools.
The failure pattern is familiar to many long-time Loris homeowners. Traditional plaster surfaces often develop rust-colored staining, rough texture, cloudy water appearance, mineral buildup, and visible discoloration within just a few years. Over time, iron and minerals from well water absorb directly into porous plaster surfaces, making stains difficult to remove even with acid washing, brushing, or aggressive chemical treatments.
Our aquaBRIGHT™ thermo-polymer for concrete pools and polyFIBRO® for fiberglass provide non-porous, stain-resistant surfaces engineered to handle mineral-rich well water conditions. Unlike traditional plaster, these advanced coatings prevent minerals from embedding into the surface, helping pools stay smoother, cleaner, and easier to maintain while reducing long-term staining and surface deterioration.
For Loris homeowners, the biggest advantage is replacing short-lived plaster surfaces with a finish designed to resist staining and mineral absorption in rural well-water environments.
High-performance pool coatings built for rural Horry County conditions, protecting family homes, countryside properties, and long-term residential pools with durable, low-maintenance finishes.
Fiberglass pools across Loris are exposed to iron-rich well water, mineral buildup, UV rays, and rural environmental conditions that accelerate staining, chalking, oxidation, and discoloration. Our polyFIBRO® thermo-polymer coating bonds directly to the fiberglass shell, creating a non-porous, stain-resistant surface designed to prevent mineral absorption, moisture intrusion, and long-term surface deterioration in demanding rural well-water environments.
Concrete and gunite pools throughout Loris often develop iron staining, rough texture, mineral buildup, and premature plaster wear caused by well-water conditions and repeated chemical treatments. Our aquaBRIGHT™ thermo-polymer coating creates a smooth, non-porous, pH-neutral surface that resists mineral penetration, staining, algae buildup, and repeated replastering cycles while delivering a longer-lasting finish for homeowners.
From fiberglass blistering and surface delamination to structural cracks, substrate deterioration, and leak-related damage, we provide complete pool repair solutions for Loris homeowners and rural properties alike. Every repair begins with identifying the root issue before restoring the surface using advanced thermo-polymer coating systems engineered for mineral-rich well water, inland humidity, and long-term durability in demanding rural environmental conditions.
Loris families didn’t sign up for permanent rust staining when they put a pool on the property. When the surface starts failing on rural well water, it’s not just an aesthetic problem. Rough plaster tears up skin and swimsuits, mineral-driven staining makes the water look discolored even when chemistry is balanced, and surface absorption of iron creates the kind of permanent staining that no amount of acid washing can fully reverse.
Our approach starts with the substrate, not the surface. We assess every pool for plaster delamination, fiberglass blistering, structural cracking, and water chemistry damage before coating. We repair what needs repairing at the structural level — then apply a thermo-polymer finish that forms a molecular bond with the pool shell. It’s not a coat of paint sitting on top. It’s a sealed membrane fused to the structure.
The finished pool doesn’t just look restored — it performs at a level the original builder-grade finish never achieved. Lower chemical costs, dramatically less scrubbing, and a surface that holds its color and texture through Loris’s full warm-season window — without the iron staining that defines the area’s pool problem.
Loris’s pool environment is rural Horry County in the most literal sense — well water across most of the area, inland humidity without coastal cooling, heavy tree canopy on most properties, and the ownership patterns that come with multi-generational family homesteads. None of these factors individually would catastrophically fail a plaster surface — but combined across 20-plus years of property ownership, they produce the staining-and-roughness pattern most Loris pool owners are now permanently familiar with.
On top of that, the long-tenured ownership profile means many properties are now on their third or fourth replaster, with cumulative spending across two decades that increasingly doesn’t make economic sense. The non-porous thermo-polymer coating eliminates the iron-absorption vulnerability that drives the failures, ending the replaster cycle in a single project.
The non-porous thermo-polymer surface helps prevent iron staining, algae buildup, mineral deposits, and discoloration common in rural well-water environments like Loris. Because the surface resists moisture absorption and chemical penetration, pools stay smoother, cleaner, easier to maintain, and more resistant to long-term surface deterioration year after year.
Traditional plaster resurfacing can leave pools unusable for weeks during peak swim season. Our thermo-polymer coating systems cure on application, allowing most Loris pools to be refilled the same day and swim-ready within the same week. Faster curing means less downtime, reduced disruption, and a more convenient resurfacing experience for homeowners and rural properties alike.

We needed to refinish our fiberglass pool and we’re totally lost. SC Pool Resurfacing Company saved the day. They answered our text a few minutes after we contacted them, made an appointment for the next day and showed us all our options. They arrived as they said they would and did an amazing job. They were so professional and as an added bonus, left my yard in perfect condition. The pool looks amazing. I highly recommend them! Ashley and Ken are truly amazing!Posted on Google Leighann LantryTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Ken and Ashley were very responsive and easy to work with. They work hard as a team from start to finish and my husband and I love how everything turned out cosmetically, too soon to tell on how well everything holds up. My only complaint was that no one mentioned they would not take a credit card payment due to fees associated with that. This only came up when the job finished and payment was requested. That is a large sum of money to have on hand with last minute notice! In any case I would still highly recommend them !Posted on Google Jim VicarTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Pricing is based on pool size, current condition, and prep requirements — we inspect every pool before providing a written estimate. For long-tenured rural properties, the relevant economic comparison is coating cost versus the next two replaster cycles you'd otherwise be running over the next 10–14 years. Per year of service, the coating consistently lands below that lifecycle cost.
