![]() ![]() I remember all-glass used to have issues with beads coming loose, but they used to be more round. I have no firsthand experience with it, but I think there are a couple of folks on here that have all-glass. They've changed them over the years to make them more irregular shaped to help them stay in better. I only bring that up because if you're going to go with a custom mix, take a look at some higher end finishes that may be very close to your custom mix that you'll like better. And Wet Edge won't warranty their product without certified installers either. At that price, it put me in a higher end price range, so I went with Wet Edge Prism Matrix.that comes with about 35-40% glass beads and abalone, and only cost about $1000 more than the Stonescapes would have. I wanted three bags, so it was going to cost me an extra $3300.00 over my initial quote. I started out with Stonescapes mini pebble, and I was quoted $1100 for one addition of glass beads. I thought about going all glass, but it was just too expensive. If the application is done well and water chemistry is maintained, it should last a very long time. As has already been stated here, the biggest difference is the installation. I'd appreciate any information and/or experience people have with which pebble finish is the better quality.if there really is any difference between the three manufacturers.įrom everything I've seen and read, quality-wise they're all pretty similar. I think that contractor was trying to sell me the Jewelscapes product that they install since they don't install the Beadcrete product line. That doesn't make much sense to me that the most expensive pool finish wouldn't warranty adhesion problems with their product. One thing one contractor told me though was that Beadcrete warranty doesn't cover the glass beads coming loose. It seems to me that the smoother glass beads may lose their adhesion and come loose over time.but that's just my thought.no hard evidence to back that up. Are these three manufacturers about the same in quality of their pebble finishes or is there one that's better than the other? All offer lifetime warranty but Pebble-Tec is the most expensive out of the quotes I've received so far.Īlso, does anyone have knowledge or the all glass bead finishes like Pebble-Tec's Beadcrete or Stonescapes' Jewelscapes products? These glass bead finishes are the priciest of their product lines but I'm concerned that the glass beads may have a tendency to come loose from their cement substrate and "shed" over time with brushing, given that the glass beads are smoother than the embedded pebble aggregate. I have a few bids from different pool companies and each is quoting different manufacturers for their pebble finishes that they install and the cost varies considerably between the quotations. ![]() I'm trying to decide on which pebble finish to use on my pool renovation project. ![]()
