Upgrade a tired, leaking or rough Newlands pool with Aquatic Pools. We handle marbelite resurfacing, fibreglass relining, leak detection, mosaic work, repairs and maintenance for the Southern Suburbs homes and apartment pools.
Newlands receives more winter rain than much of Cape Town and many pools sit beneath mature trees. Shade, leaves, moisture and older plumbing can contribute to algae, staining, leaks and worn surfaces.
These are the two main renovation routes we recommend for Newlands pool owners. We inspect the surface, shell, cracks, hollow spots, water loss and equipment before choosing the finish.
Fresh marbelite is ideal when an old concrete pool needs a clean, classic finish without changing the shape of the pool. We prepare cracks, remove weak surface areas and apply a new interior finish in the right colour for the property.
Fibreglass lining is the stronger route when the pool is leaking, porous, stained or difficult to maintain. It forms a smooth one-piece shell that helps seal the pool and gives the interior a clean gelcoat finish.
Most renovation jobs need more than a surface finish. Aquatic Pools can handle the supporting repair, tile, plumbing, pump and maintenance work in the same project.
Hand-detailed mosaic and tile work from waterline borders to full-interior feature finishes.

Book an inspection if the pool surface feels rough, stains keep returning, water levels drop, the tile line is loose, the old plaster is hollow or the pool is becoming expensive to keep blue.
We cover Newlands and nearby the Southern Suburbs areas where compact pools, apartment pools and coastal homes need careful access planning and durable pool finishes.
In Newlands, drainage and the surrounding garden are central to a durable renovation. We check for groundwater pressure, blocked circulation, leaking lines and damaged plaster. Smooth fibreglass can reduce algae attachment in shaded pools, while fresh marbelite gives stable shells a clean classic finish after thorough preparation.
We check the pool shell, water loss, plaster, tile line, plumbing, pump and filter.
We explain whether marbelite, fibreglass, mosaic, repairs or maintenance is the right route.
We drain, chip, repair cracks, seal weak areas and prep the surface properly.
We apply the chosen finish, refill, balance and hand over a cleaner, stronger pool.
Both can work. Marbelite is the classic stone-look finish and usually has a lower upfront cost. Fibreglass is smoother, non-porous and better when the pool has leak, algae or porous surface problems. We inspect the shell before recommending one.
Yes. Leak detection, crack repair, hollow-spot sealing and plumbing repairs should happen before the final surface is applied. That is how we avoid resurfacing over the real problem.
Yes. Many Newlands pools are compact or have tight access. We plan drainage, material access, water reuse and work sequencing around the property layout.
Where practical, we can use an on-site water bladder to hold and reuse pool water during marbelite or fibreglass renovation work.
Yes. We can assist with cleaning, water balancing, filter repair, pump repair, timer repair and plumbing repairs after the pool is renovated.
