What You Need to Know to Get Started
Your outdoor pool is like any other area of your home. Eventually, the urge strikes to renovate it so you can integrate new technology, bring the look or design up to date, add a new pool and outdoor living features, and increase space, to name a few. Having been a go-to pool renovation company in Texas for decades, our pool remodelers have worked with homeowners to not only design and install the pool of their dreams, but also renovate it when the time comes.
Considering all the personal and financial benefits you enjoy by having an outdoor pool, undergoing a renovation is exciting. You’re in the right place to get started, whether you can visualize exactly what you want or are simply ready for a change and could use some pool renovation inspiration from our pros. Following our custom swimming pool renovation process, we can transform any outdated or lackluster pool into the crown gem of your outdoor living space. The process begins by answering some basic questions about your project.
Is There a Better Time Than Others to Renovate a Pool?
Pool renovations in Texas can happen any time of the year, thanks to our relatively mild weather. With the weather being mostly a non-issue, the real question becomes when you want to start enjoying your upgraded pool area. Some homeowners want to enjoy their pool renovations as soon as the weather is warm enough, so they begin in late Winter/early Spring. Others prefer to enjoy their outdoor pool as-is for another season and plan renovations once the weather cools off in the Fall/early Winter.
Circumstances can play a role in timing your pool renovation, as well. Outdoor pools with structural or mechanical issues sometimes can’t wait for seasonality and require renovation (or repair to hold over until renovations begin) immediately. Depending on how extensive the pool renovation is, finances might be an issue. Homeowners can work with our renovation design team to get an idea of the total cost and decide whether the pool renovation is something they will save for, pay for outright, or finance.

What Types of Renovations Bring the Most Joy and Return on Investment?
With our custom swimming pool renovation process, any type of renovation is possible – from minor cosmetic updates to major outdoor living space rebuilds. The most popular types of pool renovations involve:
-
Adding a simple or extravagant water feature, like a spillover or waterfall
-
Installing AV equipment to watch a movie from a pool deck lounger or a float in the pool
-
Adding an outdoor patio kitchen
-
Building an outdoor fireplace or fire pit
-
Changing pool lighting technology to showcase new landscaping or other pool features
Our pool renovation team is hard-pressed to think of a pool renovation that doesn’t add value to your outdoor pool/living space. When it comes to pools, if you find value in the renovation, a home buyer down the road will, too. With pool renovations, like any home renovation, the value it brings in terms of enjoyment should not be underestimated.
