Size :

Two 10.5 x 12 m pools
Project Overview

How we completed the restoration

Moree Plains Shire Council engaged Fibreglaze to resurface the active and passive artesian pools at the Moree Artesian Aquatic Centre. Together, the two concrete pools included approximately 415 m² of floors, walls, benches, steps, ramp and perimeter gutters.

The work was staged over separate one-week visits in December 2025 and January 2026. Each substrate was ground and levelled before a fibreglass laminate and two AquaGuard topcoats were applied, finished in Lagoon Blue Speckle with a non-slip treatment and contrasting tread indicator lines.

Work completed

  • Mobilised and established the site for two separately programmed work stages.
  • Ground and mechanically prepared the concrete pool surfaces.
  • Applied resin filler screed across the surfaces and sanded it smooth.
  • Installed fibreglass laminate across the floors, walls, benches, steps, ramp and gutters.
  • Applied two AquaGuard topcoats in Lagoon Blue Speckle with a non-slip finish.
  • Applied contrasting tread indicator lines to the entry steps.

Cracks

Pool cracks range from fine surface crazing to movement-related shell damage. An inspection is needed to identify the crack type, determine whether movement is continuing and select a repair that addresses more than the visible line.

Leaks

Unexpected water loss can come from plumbing, fittings, cracks, tile joints, liners or the pool shell. Confirming the source before repair prevents resurfacing from being used where a plumbing or site solution is required.

Concrete Readiness

New concrete is not ready for lining on age alone. Curing, moisture, surface strength, laitance, cracks, joints, penetrations and tolerances must be assessed before the preparation method and final fibreglass system are specified.
