Frequently asked questions
How do I know if my pool needs a renovation?
The clearest sign a pool needs renovation is when cosmetic or functional problems interfere with safe, reliable use. Faded or peeling plaster, persistent staining, frequent equipment breakdowns, poor circulation, or a layout that no longer fits how you use the yard are common triggers. We look at surface condition, structure, equipment and how the space is used before recommending options.
What does a typical pool renovation include?
A typical renovation combines surface work, equipment updates and optional deck or feature improvements to restore performance and appearance. That might mean replastering or replacing the finish, resurfacing tile and coping, replacing pumps and filters, and updating finishes or steps to match your design. Every renovation is tailored to the goals you set and the site conditions we find.
How long does a pool renovation take?
Most renovations take a few weeks to a few months depending on scope and permitting. Simple resurfacing projects can be completed faster, while projects that add structural work, new equipment pads, decking or water features require more time. Weather, material lead times and local permit review also affect the schedule.
How much does a pool renovation cost?
There is no one size fits all price because cost depends on the work you choose, the pool condition and materials. Important cost drivers include the finish type, extent of structural repairs, equipment upgrades and any deck or landscape work. We explain the main cost variables so you can make informed choices and prioritize the improvements that matter most.
Do you repair pool equipment or only do renovations?
We perform repairs as well as renovations and routine cleaning, so you do not need separate vendors for many common needs. Equipment repair can restore pumps, filters and basic controls, while larger equipment replacement may be recommended when repair is not cost effective. We evaluate each situation and explain the tradeoffs between repair and replacement.
Do you handle permits and local codes in Lewisville and the Dallas Fort Worth area?
Yes, we work with local permit requirements and inspectors in Lewisville and across the Dallas Fort Worth area when a job requires permits. Code requirements vary by city and by the scope of work, so we confirm what is needed early in the planning stage and factor it into the schedule. Homeowners should expect permit timelines to affect overall timing.
What should I do to prepare my property before work starts?
Clear access to the pool, a protected area for materials, and a safe route for equipment are the most helpful preparations. Remove breakable items, relocate outdoor furniture and inform neighbors if heavy equipment will be used. We provide a brief preconstruction checklist and coordinate staging to minimize disruption to your yard and routine.
Do you offer routine cleaning and maintenance services?
Yes, routine cleaning and maintenance are part of our work alongside renovations and repairs. Regular service keeps equipment running efficiently, prevents small issues from becoming larger problems, and preserves the finish. We describe typical maintenance tasks and seasonal checks so you know what to expect between visits.
Will a pool renovation increase my home value?
A thoughtfully done renovation can make the property more attractive to buyers, especially when it improves safety, efficiency and curb appeal. The value added varies with local market conditions, the quality of finishes and how well the renovation integrates with the yard. For an estimate of value impact, consult your local real estate agent or appraiser who knows the Lewisville and Dallas Fort Worth market.
How do you handle unexpected problems like structural issues or leaks?
We start with an assessment, then present options and expected costs before proceeding with additional work. Some issues require specialists for structural repairs or leak detection, and we coordinate with trusted technicians when needed. Our approach is to document findings and agree on a plan so there are no surprises during the project.
What kind of warranty or written information comes with a project?
Warranty coverage varies by the component, materials and manufacturer, and those details are provided in writing with each estimate. We include manufacturer warranties for equipment and document what workmanship items, if any, are covered in the project paperwork. That way you have a clear record of what to expect after completion.
