What affects the price

Remodeling costs depend on what you want to change. If you are just resurfacing, the price is lower than if you are adding structural features like tanning ledges, spas, or new lighting. The size of your pool, the depth, and the type of finish—such as plaster versus pebble—will shift your final bill. Upgrading your equipment or installing high-end tile also adds to the total. We evaluate your specific backyard setup to give you a solid number. Exact pricing confirmed free on the call.

About this service

These professionals specialize in the design and construction phases of a pool’s life cycle. They are the ones to call when you are ready to break ground on a new project or perform a high-end remodel. They handle the engineering side of things, ensuring your pool deck and shell meet safety codes. You need them when you are ready to invest in a major upgrade that requires heavy machinery or structural modifications to your existing backyard layout.

Remodeling during the summer is possible, though it means your pool will be out of commission while you might want to use it most. Some homeowners prefer to tackle smaller repairs or equipment upgrades during this time to keep the pool functional. If you don't mind a brief pause in swimming, it is a great time to see the crew in action under perfect daylight conditions.
