Pool Resurfacing Cost Calculator

Estimate your pool resurfacing project cost based on pool dimensions, surface material, and current condition.

Formulas Used

Floor Area = Length × Width × Shape Multiplier

Wall Area = 2 × (Length + Width) × Avg Depth × Shape Multiplier

Total Wetted Area = Floor Area + Wall Area

Base Material Cost = Total Wetted Area × Material Rate ($/sq ft)

Condition-Adjusted Cost = Base Material Cost × Condition Multiplier

Coping Cost = Perimeter × $25/linear ft (if selected)

Total Cost = Condition-Adjusted Cost + Drain/Refill Cost + Coping Cost

Shape Multipliers: Rectangular = 1.00 | Oval/Kidney = 0.85 | Round = 0.79 | L-Shaped/Freeform = 1.10

Condition Multipliers: Good = 1.00 | Fair = 1.15 | Poor = 1.30 | Very Poor = 1.50
