Project Assessment
This 333,000 gallon Olympic regulated lap pool had to be renovated keeping these specific standards in mind. The surface had become quite rough in places with etching and they were ready for a replacement.
In addition to the resurfacing, there was also approximately 1,350 square feet of tiled racing lanes and targets to be redone. The work needed to be completed in a short and specific timeframe during the recreation center’s annual maintenance period.

RENOVATION PLAN
This project was completed in a span of just two weeks during October of 2022. The pool was prepped by power-washing and chipping around the existing tile and fittings. This ensures the new surface can be made flush and not bulge out around the existing materials. The most time and cost-effective solution for the racing lanes was to leave the existing tile and set the new tie on top of it. The red racing lanes were changed to blue. The surface was then covered with bond-kote to ensure proper adhesion of the new SunStone surface, which was then applied over a 2 day period.
