Introduction
At Sea Spirit Pools, we are committed to delivering high-quality pool finishes that offer durability and aesthetic appeal. This is why, for all our concrete pool builds and resurfacing projects, we exclusively use Cemcrete’s PoolCrete (also known as marbelite).
But what exactly is PoolCrete, and why is it the best choice for your swimming pool? In this guide, we’ll break down its benefits, specifications, and why we trust Cemcrete’s superior quality for all our projects.
What is PoolCrete?
PoolCrete is a 6mm thick, smooth plaster that is specially designed for plastering the inside of swimming pools. Unlike standard cement-based finishes, it becomes a tough, long-lasting part of the pool structure, ensuring strength and beauty.
Important: PoolCrete should not be used above the water level—it is specifically formulated for underwater durability.

Why We Only Use Cemcrete’s PoolCrete for Pretoria Pools
When it comes to choosing the best pool finish, we prioritize quality,
longevity, and aesthetics.
Here’s why we trust Cemcrete’s PoolCrete over other options:
- Stronger & More Durable – It bonds directly to the pool surface,
preventing cracks and peeling. - Smooth & Comfortable – Unlike rough cement finishes, PoolCrete feels
smooth underfoot, enhancing swimmer comfort. - Fade-Resistant Colors – While many standard plasters fade quickly,
PoolCrete’s pigmented formula ensures lasting vibrancy. - Ideal for Pretoria’s Climate – Engineered to withstand hot summers
and harsh weather conditions, preventing premature damage.
Did you know? Pretoria’s high summer temperatures can speed up pool finish
deterioration. Using PoolCrete ensures a long-lasting, low-maintenance
surface.
