Pacific Blue epoxy pool painting

One of our older documented painting jobs. The interior was repainted in a deep blue epoxy and the cracked pebble surround was repaired before anything was coated.

An old project, and a useful one: it shows how long painting has been part of what we do.

Pool painting is mostly preparation

Repairs first, epoxy paint after

This was not a matter of rolling paint over an old pool. The existing surface and the pebble surround needed work first — cracks cut out and repaired, gaps sealed, and the failed sections of surround taken back to something solid.

The interior was then finished in a deep blue epoxy. It gives a strong, clean tone without pretending to be anything other than paint, and the deck was coated at the same time so the whole area matched.

Jobs like this are worth comparing painters on, because the finished color is the smallest part. What happens before the tin is opened — the repairs, the cleaning, the etching, the neutralising, the drying — is what decides whether it holds for six years or lifts in eight months.

The finished color is the smallest part of a paint job.

Repainting an existing concrete pool

We prepare, repair and paint existing concrete pools — including older painted pools that need stripping and doing properly rather than another coat over the last one.

If your pool paint is chalking, peeling or simply looks tired, we will look at the existing surface and tell you what preparation it needs before repainting — and whether repainting is the right call at all.

Cracked surround repaired, then epoxy

An older concrete pool finished in 2009. The pebble surround was cracked, lifted and missing in places, so it was cut back and repaired before any coating went on.

  • Surface cleaned, etched, neutralised and dried

Came home from a two-week vacation and our pool was basically green. The previous company told us we needed to drain it, which sounded crazy. Pool Care LA came out, tested everything, explained what was happening and started the cleanup. Took a little time but now the water looks better than it has in years.Read in full

We had another pool company for almost five years and slowly the service got worse. They would say they came but the pool was always dirty. Jake from Pool Care LA has been completely different. He actually checks the equipment and lets us know if something needs attention.Read in full

Our pump stopped working on a Friday afternoon and we were worried because we had family coming over that weekend. Robert came out, found the problem and got everything running again. Honest guy, and he explained everything before doing the repair.Read in full

I don't usually leave reviews but these guys deserve it. My pool was a mess and I was tired of trying to fix the chemicals myself. They came out and took care of everything. Water is clear now and I don't have to worry anymore.Read in full

Bought a house in Beverly Hills with an older pool and honestly had no idea how to maintain it. The equipment was old and everything was confusing. They walked me through what needed to be done first and what could wait. No pressure. That was appreciated.Read in full

We thought we needed a completely new pool system. Turns out it was just a few issues with the pump and filter. They saved us a lot of money by fixing what actually needed fixing.

We have two kids and keeping the pool safe is important for us. Since switching to Pool Care LA the water has been consistently clean and balanced. It is nice knowing someone is actually paying attention every week.Read in full

What this Tujunga repaint shows

Can you just roll new paint over an old painted pool?

Not if you want it to hold. The existing surface and the surround needed work first — cracks cut out and repaired, gaps sealed, failed sections taken back to something solid — before the epoxy went on.

What decides how long a pool repaint lasts?

What happens before the tin is opened: the repairs, the cleaning, the etching, the neutralising and the drying. That is the difference between holding for six years and lifting in eight months.

Why are the photographs on this page small?

Because the job was finished in 2009 and the photographs were never shot as advertising. They are kept at the size they exist at. They are a record, not a brochure.
