This is absolutely BEAUTIFUL!! Do you know someone who does this in Portland Oregon?
Thank you so much : ) I pinned this comment so hopefully someone can help you in the Portland area!
Victory Pool and Spa
thats going to look beautiful when completed. great video
Thank you! We’ll be sure to show it filled with water 🙌
I've seen this process firsthand and it was amazing to watch. The guys that did my first pool actually mixed two colors of pebbletec and it was perfect. I'm about to get my 2nd pool built and I'm getting aqua blue pebbletec. Can't wait to see this being done again!
Very cool! It really is an awesome process to watch-good luck with your new application!
Great vid!!
Thank you!
Looking great, guys!
Thank you brotha!
@@Sierrabuildco Hey man, its funny - looks like we are doing are doing similar stuff! Your videos look great; You need to post more! I Love the David O'Dell concrete video...I've been watching him for years! I lived in South OC for decades, but moved to San Diego in 1998. I did pools when I was a teenager, it was good money for a kid my age. I worked in TV and Movies for 25 years and then 10 years ago I came back to pools when the production industry dried up here in San Diego. I kick myself sometimes because I think I should have stuck with the pools when I was a kid. Working in production was fun, but ultimately I went nowhere because I hated working in LA. I have a very small business, and intend to keep it that way. I'm 52 and I'm not looking to knock myself out anymore. I Love working for myself, my clients give me that purpose in life I was looking for but never found in the Movie business. I used to think serving others was for the weak, I wanted others to serve me. I have found new life and purpose in serving others. Having recession proof income is nice as well. Rock on!
@@angrypoolman wow we have similar stories, I pursued a career in marketing/design and realized I wanted to get back into the blue collar life (grew up in the pool industry). Haven’t been happier, and I agree-it’s a blessing to serve others. So grateful for it. I’ll check out your page when I get home later today! We’ll have to connect some time
Watching this at midnight 🫠
Awesome video bro 👌
Thank you bro! Great work 🙌
Badass and professional
Thank you! 🙌
I did marbelite and pebble pools for 8 years. If you want to finish 2-3 pools a day, just add a scoop of calcium chloride to every 8 bag mix and a scoop of easyspread to combat trowel burn.
Share your works please 😊
these guys could probably do this with their eyes closed, but damn there must be a whole lot of pressure not to mess it up.
Thanks for the video, I need to get my pool done but am having a hard time finding folks that provide this service in my area.
Thank you - yeah some areas can be difficult. What area are you in? Maybe reach out to some cleaning companies as they might have some connections for referral
Take up time is set by tempaturw and additives. Raw concrete vs raw plaster is actually about the same for normal applications but does depend on thickness poured/troweled on
Thanks Kyle! Good to know 👍
Tip top super the best
🙏
Very cool😎
Thank you 🙏
I have a pool that was previously filled in and I am thinking I should restore it...@@Sierrabuildco
That would be awesome, send us some before and after pics if you do! @@jandoinc
Would’ve been cool to see the finished product 😅
We have a video with it finished :)
Badass
New plasterer here, What’s ur opinion of rounded vs squared trowels for plastering?? Or do you use them for different things?
Cant wait it takes up faster
If you do another pool you can buy this tumbled recycled glass and add it in the mix as like a pebble tech look or you can use cut out to lay out on the wet plaster to add in designs like dolphins octopuses initials or ledge borders it’s a pretty cool effect and it’s relatively cheap it will also extend the life of the plaster if you add it into the mix I don’t remember the ratio but you can find it out there somewhere.
Thank you for sharing! It’s crazy how much cool stuff they have nowadays 🙌
Seems back breaking hunched down like that for hours smoothing out the plaster.
Just had my pool re gunite a last year and now it is really rough is it the pool company problem to take care of
Outstanding clip!
Two questions: Can all coping/tile be removed/replaced? Which plaster requires the least maintenance? Thanks
Essentially all tile & coping can be demoed and replaced, yes! Mini pebble (as shown in the video) is the least amount of maintenance in terms of it having a longer life span and holding up to acids washes better than traditional plaster 👍 Hope that helps!
What color did you install?
We skim coat with un sanded thinset before plaster. Bond coat. We never pump it. Requires too much water and makes it less strong.
Good to know
Hello, excellent work that you do! My question is simple and it is if this treatment can help me to permanently seal a leak that I cannot find. I have already pulled and redone a wall, the staircase and I have even built a new pool inside the old one... but it continues to lose water. I have spent a lot of money on repairs but the problem has not been fixed. In case you were wondering, the loss is not in the pipes. That's why I ask if doing this finish would at least give me the solution of completely sealing the pool. greetings
Hello, unfortunately I don’t believe this would solve your problem, it sounds like it’s an issue with the pool shell (which would eventually lead to the plaster failing as well)
This is great have you heard of anyone doing a bathroom or shower pan with it? I'm going to try it!
Thank you! I haven't heard of that exactly--but epoxy pebble applications have a pretty similar look to Pebble pool finish, maybe look into that!
Just ensure it's always full of water as the plaster dries up and cracks if it's not under water.
@@torsten6777 wow.. definitely not a good idea if that's the case thank you! Would sealing it with wax or sealer resolve that? I still think it's a good idea since all the other reasons to keep a pool full are not an issue with this application
@torsten6777 over here in Australia we do exposed pebble porches and drives ways lower the cement content to 3 parts pebble to 1 part cement it should be good to go pebble needs to slow down thru curing and can be exposed to air out of the water
Enjoyed your video and commentary. I am researching PebbleTec installations to arrive at an opinion of whether the delamination crack I have found following along the edge of 1" square step tiles (the safety tiles indicating a step edge) is something I could repair with an injection of structural epoxy. The PebbleTec has moved away from the tile along the face of the step. It appears there is space to inject the epoxy. I would then apply pressure to the PebbleTec to force a bond while it cures. Am I dreaming I could create a reasonable repair in this manner or do I need to call in the Pros to remove the PebbleTec and resurface? I am a very DIY guy with lots of tools and projects clipped to my belt! Thanks for any constructive opinions or advise. Cheers!
Thank you for taking the time to watch! Really appreciate it. In theory this idea may (or may not work), it's really hard to say. I will say however since the delaminating process has already started even with a bandaid fix the problem will continue. Only sure fire way to do it is to remove the pebble and replacing it, you can try a small area and patch it though it would likely be fairly noticable--otherwise just replace the entire surface. Hope that helps some!
@@Sierrabuildco Thanks for your quick reply. Further thinking has matched up with your comments: that the epoxy would probably work if it was able to be uniformly spread over the entire area of the delamination. Unfortunately, there is no way I will know that I have achieved that (odds seem low). If I don't achieve that I am thinking water will infiltrate and begin the delamination again. I have since found a company (Pool Patch) that sells kits that appear to be able to match my pebble mix and have videos that pretty much match my situation. I will likely be trying their product. Again, thanks for taking the time to respond to my question.
Neat video thanks. Can you please explain why when I see anyone making some kind of pool, they start at the steps and go to the deep end? Wouldnt it be better to not block yourselves in and get stuck in the deep end then have to ruin what you just did to get out?
Thank you! Good question, the reason is that all the water used for exposing at the end would run down on the already finished deep end, so since water will follow that way down they finish it last working from top to bottom. I think I actually talk about this in our newest plaster video also :) go check it out!
@@Sierrabuildco thanks
What would be the cost of laying new plaster? I’m sure there’s a lot that goes into the pricing, but maybe like general price
Depends on your area
I need someone to finish my pool in Garberville ca area
North east Orange County
We’re based in North OC
Has a bond coat already been applied?
The best surface for bonding is the pool’s shell-in this case shotcrete 👍
Man them boys love that calcium
Yum!
I have a 15 year old pebble tec type pool. I'm tired of the high maintance. Would it be a good idea to plaster something over it to make the pool wall and bottom feel smooth? Thanks.
The only recommended process is to demo the existing and replaster with a smoother finish
@@Sierrabuildco Thanks for the prompt reply. Could it be done with demolision? Just plastering over the existing pebble tec?
I have an old plaster pool and considering the pebble finish, your comment makes me want to rethink that and just go with plain plaster again.
Great work. I have a Remodeling Company and would like to do some time-lapse filming. Can you share your settings for the time lapse camera please
Awesome!! I just use the Timelapse setting in GoPro and have it take a photo every second 🙌 1080p (not 4K)
@Sierrabuildco thank you for responding
Kinda reminds me of concrete
What's the price on a 24×12 pool
what is the name of the plaster
Mini Pebbly by NPT :)
Follow up?
We have a vid up on the full build! 🙌
Pay your workers more bro ..
How much should we pay them?
@@Sierrabuildco where you located?
Get your butt in there and help 😊
Why? Then I’d have to send a guy home because I took his spot-You don’t like us employing people?
Howdy Sierra Can you tell me Is that FINISH that you are filming in shallow end ( sorry forgot the name you used for it) where the 1 Guy with the Blower, the other 1 Floating & Misting to expose the aggregate ...does that make the pool feel like Sand Paper once its fully dried when you stand on it?
I ask bc I am Disabled and I need to have Pool Re done & I Cant have the Shiny Painted Look like we always see on Most Vidoes on here BC as i said Im disabled & only have 1 Leg, So its imperative I keep that SAND PAPER FEEL Under my Foot for stability when i can get in the Pool!
sadly I have been trying to find some contractors South of Tampa to give me estimates for the Pool, but BC everyone is Moving to FL & Construction business is almost Blank check type BS right now with The 15k + New Houses being Built here just in 2023 is UNREAL & trying to find some one who will do it with out robbing you at this Point is a joke.......and the Original FL Contractors are getting Pushed out of Business with all these BIG construction Companies from Out of state coming in & buying up Months worth of supplies & driving up costs 3x the normal Price!!
I am probably going to have to wait until Jan when the recession really hits ( thought that in 2008 too but we Never got hit here ) to have mine done & maybe prices will come back to 2020 Prices finally ....but i still need to know about finish bc I am on a Disabled S S budget and PRICE is important !
Hello! This finish will definitely have more traction than a traditional plaster-perfect combination of traction but no so rough as to damage/hurt your feet. Best of luck with finding an honest contractor in your area! 🙏
