What is a quartz finish?
Quartz pool finishes blend crushed quartz aggregate into the plaster mix. The quartz adds durability (it doesn't dissolve the way plaster does in hard water) and lets the manufacturer offer richer colors than standard plaster.
Why people choose it
Quartz typically lasts 10–15 years vs. 7–10 for standard plaster. Colors are deeper and more consistent. The slight texture feels good underfoot without the noticeable grit of pebble finishes.
What's included
Same scope as a replaster — drain, surface removal, bond coat, application, acid finish, refill, cure plan.
