Resurfacing in Fountain Hills
Fountain Hills water is some of the hardest in the Valley, so scale builds fast on waterline tile and smooth plaster. The Sanitary District also restricts pool draining into the sewer on some streets.

What to know in Fountain Hills
Very hard water
At about 16 grains per gallon, scale shows up quickly. Quartz or pebble hides it better than white plaster, and new waterline tile is worth pricing at the same time.
Check your street first
The Fountain Hills Sanitary District doesn't allow pool water into the sewer on some streets. Your contractor should check your address before draining.
Hillside access
Steep drives and tight side yards affect how crews get equipment to the pool. Mention access when you book the quote visit.
