Finishes
Pool Plaster
A white cement-and-marble-dust coating troweled onto the gunite shell — the original pool finish, 7–10 year lifespan in AZ.
Plaster is the cheapest pool finish and the smoothest underfoot. In Arizona's hard water and intense UV, expect a 7–10 year lifespan before staining and etching require a replaster. Best for budget builds, rentals, and replaster jobs on aging pools.
