How Much Does Diamond Brite Pool Resurfacing Cost?
Published March 29, 2023
No matter how thoroughly you maintain your pool, cracks and similar damages will inevitably appear. The pool liner, in particular, is prone to damage. That’s why pool resurfacing is often the most commonly sought-after service among the many swimming pool services a homeowner can seek.
Usually, homeowners would choose the standard options, which are concrete or vinyl liners. But apart from these two, there’s an option that has become quite common recently—Diamond Brite.
What is Diamond Brite?
Diamond Brite is a brand that manufactures finishes or liners made of a combination of fortified white cement and quartz aggregates, resulting in a formidable blend. Though there are several ways to use Diamond Brite finishes, it’s a particularly nice option for swimming pool surfaces and liners.
However, while it features several benefits, it’s also known for being costly, but is that truly the case?
In this blog post, we’ll discuss what you need to know about the Diamond Brite pool resurfacing cost. Let’s start by reviewing the average cost of Diamond Brite pool resurfacing services.
Average Cost of Diamond Brite Pool Resurfacing
The average cost to resurface an existing swimming pool with a Diamond Brite pool finish is $10,000. Of course, there may be inconsistencies with the cost depending on several factors.
Swimming pools that are particularly luxurious, for example, may have a higher price tag than the average. Similarly, swimming pools that are relatively small may have significantly lower price points.
There’s also a good chance the agency that will be doing the resurfacing has a higher or lower price point than the average. But ultimately, it depends on a couple of factors. So, to determine whether Diamond Brite is truly costly, we must compare it with its alternatives’ price points.
Diamond Brite Pool Resurfacing Cost: A Price Comparison
Interestingly enough, while many people assume that Diamond Brite is quite expensive, it’s actually not the most expensive resurfacing material option you can find, though it’s also not the cheapest.
For comparison, resurfacing an existing pool with regular white plaster would cost $5 per square foot. Meanwhile, aggregates would cost $6 per square foot, pebble finish would cost $10 per square foot, and tiles would cost $15 to $25 per square foot, depending on the quality of the tile material.
If we consider the fact that pools are, on average, 32 feet long and 16 feet wide, with an average depth of 6 feet, you end up with a total of 1,088 square feet of surface to cover with the finish.
Taking this into consideration, you’ll end up with the following average total costs:
- Tiles: $16,320 to $27,200
- Pebble Finish: $10,880
- Aggregate: $6,528
- Regular Plaster: $5,440
As you can see, tiles are the most expensive, pebble finish is the second, and the Diamond Brite resurfacing cost is just the third when it comes to price points. So, while it’s not ideal for homeowners who want to stay on budget, it’s still viable otherwise, especially if you have money to splurge.
