We want to use an aggregate finish on our pool and there are several good companies in town, but they all use a different brand. Is there a better brand? So far I am looking at Pebble Tec, Gemstone, River Rock and Dimond Bright. Any suggestions?

Re: Which aggregate finish
Don't go with River Rok! We had it installed in April and it is rough and abrasive. It looks great and feels horrible. My friends and family hate it, we all get cuts and scrapes on our bodies when we swim. It was a big mistake!
Re: Which aggregate finish
This doesn't apply just to River Rok.Originally Posted by Chantazia
I've heard these same complaints levied against all the exposed aggregate finishes.
They're typically against those using the largest pebble. Those are Pebbletec, Stonescapes, Crystalstones, and RiverRok.

Re: Which aggregate finish
So does any other brand have a smaller rock or is PebbleTec's PebbleSheen line the only one.
Re: Which aggregate finish
Hi - we have Stonescapes, and I know that they have a "mini pebble" which is similar to PebbleSheen. Not sure about the other brands, however.
I think the key to many of the aggregate finishes is to brush, and brush, and brush! We've had water in our pol for about 3 weeks now, and have no complaints about the minipebble being too rough or sharp.
Re: Which aggregate finish
Take a look at these web sites for some other finishes.
