PebbleTec Pool & Spa Finishing

PebbleTec is a type of exposed aggregate finish, where small natural pebbles are embedded in cement and then partially exposed to create a textured, colorful surface. It’s used primarily for in-ground pools and spas.


Neway Pools offers PebbleTec’s finish on all pools. As licensed applicators, we can add beauty, durability, and expert support for this technology. And, while other pool companies give you a 1-year warranty with normal plaster, PebbleTec provides a 5-year warranty with an option to upgrade to a limited lifetime warranty.
