Why Louisiana Pool Owners Need Fiberglass Refinishing

Fiberglass pools are popular across Louisiana because they’re durable, low-maintenance, and quick to install. But over time, even the toughest shells can show cracks, fading, blisters, or rough patches.

That’s where fiberglass pool refinishing comes in. With the right process and materials, you can restore your pool to better-than-new condition — and extend its life for years.

Signs Your Fiberglass Pool Needs Refinishing

If you’re noticing any of these issues, it’s time to act:

  • Spider cracks or structural pool cracks along steps, walls, or floor

  • Blistering or delamination (bubbles forming beneath the surface)

  • Stains and discoloration that won’t scrub away

  • Rough, chalky surfaces caused by paint or gelcoat breakdown

  • Leaks that may be linked to surface damage

Ignoring these problems only makes them worse. Our Louisiana-based team specializes in catching issues early and resurfacing pools with long-lasting finishes.

Our Refinishing Process

At Louisiana Pool, we don’t just “paint over” problems. We use a step-by-step refinishing process proven to deliver results:

  1. Inspection & Assessment – We check for cracks, delamination, or osmosis blistering.

  2. Structural Repair – All cracks, blisters, or weak spots are reinforced and smoothed.

  3. Surface Prep – Old paint or gelcoat is removed and the surface is sanded or vapor-blasted for maximum adhesion.

  4. ecoFINISH® Thermoplastic Coating – Applied with specialized flame-spray equipment for a smooth, durable finish.

  5. Final Detailing – Edges, fittings, and tile lines are unmasked for a polished look.


This isn’t a quick patch — it’s a complete resurfacing system designed to outlast paint and traditional gelcoat.

Why We Recommend ecoFINISH®

Many contractors in Louisiana still rely on paint or gelcoat, but these can fade, peel, or blister in just a few years. We use ecoFINISH® for:

  • Durability: Resists fading, peeling, and chemical damage.

  • Low Maintenance: Easy to clean and algae-resistant.

  • Safety: Slip-resistant surface that feels smooth underfoot.

  • Style Options: Available in colors like Blue Lagoon, Blue Mist, Mediterranean Blue, Sahara Sand, French Grey, and more.

  • Warranty: Backed by up to a 10-year manufacturer warranty.
