Pool steps & benches
Cracked, faded or tired steps?
Does your in-ground vinyl pool have steps or a bench that’s seen better days? Has the fiberglass or plastic step failed? We have several ways to repair steps, replace them, or add new ones to your pool.
Three ways forward
Resurface, replace or rebuild
If the steps are cracked or faded, a Rebound coating may be all they need. If they’re damaged beyond repair, there are two good options.
Repair
Rebound resurfacing
We repair minor cracks and put on a new waterproof, textured coating: soft, slip-resistant, in a color that suits your liner.
Replace
A new acrylic step
We take out the old fiberglass steps and put in a new acrylic fiberglass step.
Rebuild
Poured vinyl-over steps
We pour new steps right into the pool and the liner wraps over them: one continuous surface.
One project, start to finish
Drag through the whole job
Old liner out, forms in, concrete steps poured, a new stone-pattern liner over everything, then water. Slide to watch it happen.
