Pool Resurfacing in North Fort Myers, Florida

Why North Fort Myers Has So Much Fiberglass Pool Work

North Fort Myers grew quickly in the 1980s and 1990s, the same window when one-piece fiberglass pool shells became affordable for middle-market homeowners. Thousands of those shells went into Suncoast Estates, Buckingham, Tice, Sun Country, and the older Bayshore Drive subdivisions. A fiberglass pool's original factory gelcoat is a roughly 20-mil polyester or vinyl ester resin layer that typically holds up 10 to 15 years in the Cape Coral and North Fort Myers climate before it starts to chalk, fade, blister, and crack. That timeline puts most of the North Fort Myers fiberglass population squarely in the resurfacing window right now. Resurfacing those shells with a new pool-rated gelcoat or two-part epoxy pool coating extends shell life another 7 to 10 years at $4,000-$8,000, compared to $30,000+ for a full shell swap.

North Fort Myers also has a high concentration of older gunite pools that are on their second or third interior finish. Many of those took unrepaired Hurricane Ian damage in 2022, and we still see hairline cracks surfacing on resurface jobs years later. We always include a structural inspection before any new finish goes on a North Fort Myers pool of unknown service history.
