Owning a swimming pool in Claremont is a great way to enjoy the sunny Cape Town lifestyle, but older pools often show signs of wear. From water leaks and cracks to poor circulation and heater issues, many Claremont pools require professional attention to stay safe, clean, and fully functional.

Fibreglass Pool Relining for Older Pools
Many Claremont pools were originally finished with marbelite or painted surfaces that degrade over time. Fibreglass relining offers a long-lasting solution, providing a smooth, waterproof layer that seals cracks and improves pool durability.
Key benefits:
- Waterproof, seamless surface
- Reduced maintenance and chemical usage
- UV-resistant and chemical-stable
- Strong protection against cracking
Fibreglass relining not only rejuvenates the pool but also protects pumps, heaters, and filtration systems from strain caused by leaks or poor circulation.

Circulation & Filtration System Upgrades
Proper water flow is essential to prevent algae growth, chemical imbalance, and equipment failure. Many older Claremont pools suffer from undersized pumps, blocked filters, or misaligned return jets.
Our upgrades include:
- Replacement of worn pumps and motors
- Sand, cartridge, or DE filter upgrades
- Pipe pressure testing and leak detection
- Optimization of circulation and jet placement
Proper circulation also protects pool heaters and chlorinators from overheating or damage.

Benefits of pool heating upgrades:

- Better resale appeal

F.A.Q
