Pebblecrete Resurfacing

Resurface Your Pebblecrete Driveway, Path or Patio with Spray-On Cement

Yes, we can resurface over pebblecrete, and we have been doing it for over ten years. We apply a skim coat first to flatten the pebble texture, then spray our finish over the top. You will not see or feel the pebblecrete underneath, it comes up looking like any of our other freshly resurfaced driveways.

The texture goes

This is the part people most often get wrong when they read about it elsewhere. The skim coat does not preserve the pebble texture, it removes it. If you like the pebbles, this is not the job for you. If you are tired of a surface that catches dirt, grows mould in the shade and is unpleasant underfoot, this is exactly the job for you.

Worth knowing

What To Expect From Pebblecrete Resurfacing

Where it works

  • Driveways, pool surrounds, patios, paths and courtyards.
  • Pebblecrete pool surrounds are a common one. The finished surface is textured and non-slip, rated P5, and it is far easier to keep clean than the pebbles were.

Heights and clearances stay the same

  • Even with a skim coat underneath, the total build-up is only a few millimetres.
  • Your drainage, door thresholds and garage door clearances are unchanged.
  • And as with every job, we pressure wash, mask up and fill the visible cracks before we spray.
  • Grinding isn’t part of our standard process. We only grind where a surface needs it, usually to take off old paint or a coating first.

We take great care in our craftsmanship when you hire us to beautify your driveway, pool surround or patio.

Start to finish

Our Pebblecrete Resrufacing Process

The process starts with a pressure wash and full masking of walls, garage doors, garden beds and pool fencing. We fill any visible cracks, apply the skim coat over your existing pebblecrete to flatten the texture, then spray the finish on in your chosen colour and seal it. We only grind where it’s genuinely needed, usually to remove old paint or a previous coating, so it isn’t part of the standard job. The build-up stays a few millimetres thick throughout, meaning no change to drainage, door thresholds or garage clearances. Most jobs take two to three days depending on size and weather, and we’ll confirm a firm timeframe once we’ve seen your driveway.

If your surface is plain concrete rather than pebblecrete, see concrete resurfacing. Browse the colours, see our projects, read our reviews, or view all of our services. For a price, get a free estimate.

All you need to do before we start is clear the areas. We handle the masking, cleaning and surface prep from there.

Any Questions

FAQs

Will any of the pebbles still be visible or felt underfoot after resurfacing?

No. The skim coat flattens the texture completely, you won’t see or feel the pebblecrete underneath.

How long have you been resurfacing pebblecrete driveways?

Over ten years.

Can pebblecrete resurfacing be done around a pool?

Yes. Pebblecrete pool surrounds are one of the most common jobs, finished with a textured, non slip, P5-rated surface that’s far easier to keep clean than pebbles.
