Swimming Pool Renovation & Remodeling

Sometimes the pool does not look the way we would like and it may be the best option to completely renovate to create something new again. This can typically happen when a hew home owner finds that the pool doesn’t quite suit their style, or that the pool has been neglected for a long period of time, in either case, time to remodel, renovate or repair!

POOL REMODELING IS RIGHT FOR YOU IF:

• You want to update the look.
• Pay less for electrical operation.
• Upgrade the way it works like automation.
• Your pool has lots of repairs to make, might as well!
• You’re selling the house soon and it has to look better.

If you own a pool you have to see it everyday, it’s in your backyard! If you have to see it why not love how it looks! Selling a home with a pool that is in disrepair is not easy, in most cases you will need to make the repairs pointed out by a qualified swimming pool inspector. On the same hand, it may be hard selling a home for the amount you hope to get if the pool looks like it has problems.

SWIMMING POOL RENOVATIONS & RESURFACING

For inground pools there are several main categories that can be included with a pool remodel project, such as:

• Interior
• Beam
• Decking
• Equipment

These categories include items within that you may be able to repair or remodel individually.

Interior

The material inside of your in-ground swimming pool is what keeps the water from soaking through the concrete structure, and also is the finishing surface that is to feel nice and look good. There are varieties of swimming pool surface plasters to choose from with colors ranging from white to black and every shade of blue in between. When considering to remodel your pool, resurfacing the interior can be done as a single job or combined with other work.

Beam

At the water’s edge sits the pool coping, usually brick, travertine, flagstone and the waterline tiles which are usually ceramic, and some being glass tiles. If you have missing, broken, cracked pool tiles it may be time to remodel. You should not replace the pool tiles without also including pool resurfacing.

Decking

We can help you add some more patio space, or simply change the look of your existing pool deck.

• Cool Deck
• Travertin Pavers
• Concrete Pavers
• Stamped Concrete
• Stamped Overlay Concrete

Equipment

Pool equipment can be repaired until the parts for them can no longer be located. Old pool equipment is usually replaced with updated and more energy efficient models like variable speed pool pumps, and cartridge filters or digital control systems. Many of our clients choose to upgrade their main pool pumps to variable speed because of the large savings in energy use to operate the pool each year.

POOL RENOVATIONS: TIMELINE & BUDGET

Generally a pool renovation could take anywhere between 4 – 6 weeks to fully complete and that timeline all depending on what type of work you are including, weather permitting. As we mentioned, you may need to combine some other repairs with the project, depending on what they are could extend the expected timeline.

Work that is needed not seen at the time your quote was made could cause and extension of the timeline. As for the more simple remodel projects such as pool resurfacing or pool tile cleaning those can be done much faster usually around 2 – 3 weeks.
