Commercial Pool Resurfacing in Seguin, Texas
New Braunfels Quality Pool Resurfacing handles commercial pool resurfacing in Seguin, Texas, for pools shared beyond a single household. That means apartment, association, lodging and club pools, which Texas treats as public pools whether or not anyone pays to swim. Seguin also licenses the contractors who do permitted pool repair work, so the paperwork comes before the new finish.
We serve properties across the county seat, from the Guadalupe River and Max Starcke Park to Texas Lutheran University and the Interstate 10 corridor. An estimate is free, and the line is open 24/7. We'll go over the city's permit form, how long the pool will be closed, and what the drought plan allows when a pool is drained and refilled.

A county seat with a wave pool and a river park
Seguin is the county seat of Guadalupe County, on Interstate 10 and the Guadalupe River. On August 12, 1838, thirty-three Gonzales Rangers laid out a townsite near Walnut Branch and named it Walnut Springs. It was renamed in February 1839 for Juan N. Seguín, and the town incorporated by charter on February 7, 1853. Its first schoolhouse, built in 1850 by John E. Park, inventor of Park's concrete, was recognized in 1962 as the oldest continuously used school building in Texas.
The city has grown fast. The 2020 Census counted 29,433 people, and the Census Bureau estimates 41,048 for July 1, 2025.
Max Starcke Park and the Seguin Wave Pool
Max Starcke Park covers 227 acres along the river. It was a pecan orchard until it was dedicated in 1938, and it now holds an 18-hole golf course, a paddling trail and the city's own surface water treatment plant. In the park's east section, the city's Parks and Recreation Department runs the Seguin Wave Pool, a 15,000-square-foot wave pool with a zero-depth beach entry, plus a splash pool. Its 2026 season ran from May 23 to August 2, and when checked in October 2026 the city listed it as closed for 2026, reopening in May 2027.

(830) 302-4112Seguin's permit and license rules for pool work
For pools, Seguin uses the 2021 International Swimming Pool and Spa Code, with its own amendments through June 3, 2025. Under the city code, a pool contractor needs a city license before doing any pool construction or repair that requires a permit. Contractors must also register with the Development Services Center before any permit is issued. When permitted work starts before the permit, the fees double.
What the pool permit form asks
The city's pool permit application has a 'Private' box and a 'Public' box. It wants a site plan with setbacks and impervious coverage, which counts pools and decks. On a commercial lot, that coverage may not pass 80 percent, against 60 percent for a home. The plans must show the pool barrier, a gate that closes and locks itself, and an audible alarm. An in-ground pool permit costs $225.00, and it lapses if work hasn't started within 6 months.
Building, enlarging, altering, repairing, moving or demolishing a structure all need a permit. Planning & Codes is at 108 E Mountain St. No city page says whether a resurfacing alone needs a pool permit, so put the question to Permits & Inspections first.

(830) 302-4112Rentals, apartments and other shared pools
Texas sorts public pools into classes. A Class B pool is open to the general public. A Class C pool serves only occupants, members or students and their guests: pools at hotels, motels, apartments, condominiums, RV parks, property owner associations, clubs and youth camps.
Seguin has a mix of these properties. The Census Bureau's 2020–2024 survey counts 13,397 homes in the city. Of those, 3.3 percent sit in buildings of 10 to 19 units and 3.7 percent in buildings of 20 or more. Since January 1, 2026, the city's Short-Term Rental Registration Ordinance has required owners inside the city limits to register any property they plan to run as a short-term rental. Whether a particular pool counts as public depends on who uses it, so check its status with the city before work is planned.

(830) 302-4112Clay, rain and an empty commercial pool
Seguin's ground is mostly clay. The U.S. Department of Agriculture's maps for Seguin show flat Branyon clay on 28.8 percent of the ground and Barbarosa silty clay on 20.1 percent. Branyon, the most common, rates 13 for shrink-swell in the department's data: it swells when wet and shrinks again as it dries.
Rain is the other variable. The federal climate normals for 1991–2020 at the Seguin station give 33.98 inches of rain a year. On average, 45.0 days bring at least a tenth of an inch and 10.3 days an inch or more. Pool-supply guidance advises against draining during long spells of heavy rain. So a commercial drain is planned around the forecast as well as the ground.

(830) 302-4112Seguin's drought stages and a commercial refill
The City of Seguin's water comes from two places. One is the Guadalupe River, treated at the city's plant in Max Starcke Park. The other is Carrizo Aquifer groundwater, bought from the Schertz Seguin Local Government Corporation's well field in Gonzales County. The state rates the city's system a superior public water system. Since January 2026 the city also serves former Springs Hill customers, about 9,500 acres north of Interstate 10 between State Highways 46 and 123, up to Link Road.
Pool limits in the later drought stages
Seguin's drought plan, amended through December 17, 2024, limits pools in its later stages:
- Stage 3, the alert stage: no filling of swimming pools; only makeup water, the water added to replace what evaporates or splashes out.
- Stage 4, the severe stage: no new pools or hot tubs, no filling or makeup water for any pool, and drainage only onto absorbent, unpaved ground.
A resurfaced pool needs a full refill, so the stage in force decides when the work can start. On October 6, 2026, the city's published text named no stage in force. Confirm it with the City of Seguin before draining a commercial pool.

(830) 302-4112Beyond commercial pool resurfacing: related work
A commercial job can take in more than the finish: depth markers and step-edge tile, drain covers, deck repairs and structural cracks. For the Texas rules on finishes, markings and closures, turn to the commercial pool resurfacing page. Commercial resurfacing has no published Texas price, so each pool is priced after a free visit. Nine miles up the Guadalupe River, pool deck resurfacing in Lake Dunlap is another service New Braunfels Quality Pool Resurfacing provides.

(830) 302-4112How a commercial resurfacing is scheduled
The usual sequence for a shared pool. Rules are confirmed for each property.
Survey the commercial pool
Give the pool count, the sizes and the months a closure could work. The estimate is free.
License and permit
Seguin's license for pool contractors and its contractor registration come first, then the permit with the "Public" box checked if that applies.
Close and post the pool
Texas requires a closed public pool to keep the public out and to post a notice on its entry gates or doors.
Drain, resurface, refill
Drained water goes where the current stage allows, and the refill waits for a stage that permits filling.
Reopen
The pool reopens once the finish has been through start-up and the water chemistry is in balance.
