Carpe Diem Beach Club, Bang Tao Beach: from a concrete shell under construction to a finished pool with the club’s logo set into the floor and a custom turquoise Sandy Beach finish. The application process and sequence may vary slightly based on the type of finish you select, your location, certain weather conditions and the authorised applicator installing the pool finish.

The PebbleTec network worldwide
Delivered precisely what was promised
We were pleased to work with the EuroPebbleTec team on resurfacing the hotel’s main pool, and the company delivered precisely what was promised at the beginning of the project. Although it was a complex project with a fixed and short timeline, EuroPebbleTec resolved all issues rapidly and efficiently by working closely with the hotel team and delivering a great result. We are delighted with our new swimming pool and are already planning new works on our other leisure areas.

Questions about the process
Who installs PebbleTec finishes in Thailand?
Only specific, expert applicators may sell and install real PebbleTec finishes. Paradise Pool Interiors is the sole licensed applicator in Thailand; our team is PTI educated and backs every installation with the most robust workmanship warranty in the industry.
Where do I start — remodel, new build or commercial?
If you already have a pool, begin with the 4 Step Remodelling Guide; planning a new one, the 6 Step New Pool Buyer Guide; hotels, resorts and beach clubs, the commercial page. Or simply send us photos and a few details and we will point you the right way.
Is the sequence the same for every pool?
The application process and sequence may vary slightly based on the type of finish you select, your location, certain weather conditions and the authorised applicator installing the pool finish.
What happens after the pool is filled?
The finish cures for roughly 30 days. Brush with a nylon brush three times a day for the first three days and twice a day for the next ten, keep the water chemistry balanced, and wait at least 14 days before turning on a heater. Allow the full cure before judging the colour of the finish or the water.
Is it normal to see a few loose pebbles at first?
Yes. It is normal for some pebbles to come loose during the initial cure, and for a small number to come loose over time. Keeping the water chemistry balanced is what preserves the integrity of the finish.
