If you have a fibreglass pool that has started to crack, blister, fade or lose water in Krugersdorp, Trademen Pools can help. We work right across Krugersdorp — from Noordheuwel, Monument, Rangeview, Featherbrooke, Silverfields, Pinehaven, Dan Pienaarville and Krugersdorp North — restoring pools to a smooth, watertight, lasting finish. Parts of Mogale City sit on dolomitic ground, which can settle and move and place stress on a pool shell over time.
Re-fibreglassing lays a brand-new fibreglass layer and gelcoat over a prepared shell — ideal for old marbelite pools that keep going porous and green.
From a mix of established family homes and newer estates such as Featherbrooke, we’ve worked on pools like yours throughout Krugersdorp, so the advice you get is grounded in local experience.
Signs your fibreglass pool needs attention in Krugersdorp
- Osmosis blisters — raised bubbles where water has crept behind the gelcoat
- Spider & structural cracks — fine crazing or wider cracks in the shell
- Fading, chalking & rough patches — UV damage that leaves the surface harsh underfoot
- Delamination — areas where the fibreglass layer has lifted from the structure
- Ongoing water loss — a shell crack or failed fitting losing more than evaporation
- New fibreglass laminate over a prepared shell, including old marbelite pools
Cost & timeline
Spot crack and blister repairs are the most affordable route, while a full re-fibreglass of an average pool runs over several days depending on size, damage and colour. We quote after seeing the pool, never blind over the phone. Either way, you get a clear, fair price for the work in Krugersdorp — no surprises.
Our approach to swimming pool re fiberglassing
- Drain the pool and map every crack, blister and delaminated zone
- Grind back failing gelcoat and loose laminate to a sound surface
- Rebuild cracks with chopped-strand matting and resin (not just a skim)
- Lay up a fresh fibreglass layer to restore shell strength
- Apply a new UV-stable gelcoat or flowcoat in your chosen colour
- Cure, refill and balance the water ready to swim
Fibreglass repair is a resin-and-matting process, not a cement one, so surface preparation is everything — it’s the difference between a repair that lasts ten years and one that blisters again in two seasons.

Swimming Pool Re Fiberglassing FAQs — Krugersdorp
Can you repair a fibreglass pool without redoing the whole shell?
Often yes. Isolated cracks and blisters can be repaired and blended into the existing finish. A full re-fibreglass is only needed when the gelcoat or laminate has widely failed.
Can you fibreglass over an old marbelite pool?
Yes — re-fibreglassing over a properly prepared marbelite shell is one of the most popular upgrades we do.
How long before we can swim again?
Usually within a few days of completion, once the final gelcoat has cured and the pool is refilled and balanced.
Will the new colour match the rest of the pool?
On a full re-fibreglass the whole surface is recoated for an even finish. For spot repairs we colour-match as closely as possible and advise honestly on the result.
