  • From www.swimmingpoo... - In this video Steve talks about how a concrete pool is sealed to prevent water from permeating into the concrete shell. There are many different interior surface options for concrete pools including plaster, paint, tile, and pebble interior surfaces.

    Can you use the pool plaster on the shower walls instead of doing tiles and the tadelakt process with lime putty?

    What would you use to seal the old plaster before installing the tiles for the whole pool?

      Should take a genesis class. All tile pools are not for the weak.

    Could this be used on the bottom side of a concrete deck to stop rainwater from leaking through tiny cracks in the deck?

    I had to remove a rock waterfall that protruded into the pool concrete as it became a source of a leak. I've now replaced it with concrete. What do I use to seal the seam between the new and old concrete as well as the new concrete up to the new tile?

    Soo what do you seal it with to make it waterproof? Dry lock?

      @Swimmingpoolsteve  4 роки тому +3

      Basecrete flexible bond coat is my preferred method. You can also use redgard or hydroban membranes but they only resist hydrostatic pressure from one direction where Basecrete does both.

    We are building a concrete tub and will put a Bostik slurry for waterproof. Does it need to apply a plaster on top of the waterproofing or is it ok to just leave it like that. Waterproofing as the final surface? Thank you!!!

    Does using basecrete need a surly that you show ?

    • @Swimmingpoolsteve
      @Swimmingpoolsteve  Рік тому

      No, basecrete will have and use their own proprietary products which you must follow the application instructions very carefully. There will be no "field mix" products other than what they supply.

    Thanks for the info! Aesthetics aside...is it possible to just use Basecrete on a concrete/cement shell instead of plaster? Will it last just as long? Thanks

      You use basecrete the pool then plaster over that to help with calcium build up.
