Total Swimming Pool Renovation, Costa del Sol

This is a total renovation of an old swimming pool. The prefabricated pool surround was breaking up and was painful for people to walk on. The inside of the pool was painted. After 30 years of paint being applied, it was looking a mess and the paint was starting to come off in patches.

The first thing that we did was to demolish the existing pool surround. This waste was removed to a treatment plant.

The swimming pool was then drained and allowed to dry a little ready for the sand blasting. The sand blasting removes all the loose paint back to the original render and ensures that the new tiles will be well stuck.

The surround is made from very hard white concrete. We build shuttering and then pour in the mix. Once it starts to set, we float it to level the stones in the mix. This creates a smooth, yet non slip surface. Once the concrete is fully set we remove the shuttering, polish the edges and make expansion cuts.

The last stage was to tile and grout the pool. In this pool the choice was high quality AlttoGlass mosaic tiles from the North of Spain.

As you can see, the results of this 5 day project are stunning.
