Our Pool Remodeling & Renovation Services
We offer a comprehensive range of services to transform your existing pool. Our services include:
Full or Partial Remodels
We can undertake a complete transformation of your pool and backyard or focus on specific upgrades. A full remodel might involve changing the pool’s shape, adding a spa, and updating all the finishes, while a partial remodel could focus on new tile and interior finish.
Pool Shape Modifications
If you are unhappy with the current shape of your pool, we can modify its structure to create a more modern or organic design, such as softening sharp corners or adding a raised bond beam.
Depth Changes
We can alter the depth of your pool to better suit your needs, such as creating a larger shallow area for kids, a beach entry, or a tanning ledge.
Spa Additions or Conversions
A spa is a popular addition to any pool. We can build a new, integrated spa or convert an existing section of your pool into a spa.
Energy-Efficiency Upgrades
We can replace your old, inefficient pool equipment with modern, energy-saving alternatives like variable-speed pumps, LED lighting, and solar heating systems.
Tile, Coping & Interior Finish Replacement
A new surface can dramatically change the appearance of your pool. We offer a wide selection of modern tiles, coping, and interior finishes from certified installers like PebbleTec.
Equipment & Automation Upgrades
We can upgrade your pool’s filtration, heating, and sanitation systems and install full automation from brands like Jandy, Pentair, and Hayward for convenient, app-based control.

Reasons to Remodel Your Pool in Los Angeles
Los Angeles homeowners choose to remodel their pools for a variety of practical, aesthetic, and safety-related reasons. Here are some of the most common:
Updating An Outdated Appearance
Over time, pool finishes, tile colors, and design styles can begin to look dated. Older pools often feature bright blue or teal tile and worn plaster surfaces that appear stained or feel rough to the touch. Remodeling allows you to introduce contemporary colors, refined tile selections, and smooth, durable interior finishes that create a more current and inviting look.
Improving Functionality And Comfort
A renovation can also address how well the pool supports everyday use. Some pools lack features such as integrated spas, beach entries, tanning ledges, or built-in seating. Others may be deeper than desired for families with young children. Remodeling makes it possible to reshape or enhance the pool so it better fits your lifestyle and how the space is actually used.
Increasing Energy Efficiency
Older pool systems often rely on single-speed pumps or inefficient heaters that increase operating costs. Upgrading to modern, energy-efficient equipment can lower monthly utility expenses while improving overall performance. Many remodels also include automation systems that allow convenient control of temperature, lighting, and cleaning from a smartphone.
Enhancing Safety Features
Safety is another important reason to renovate. Older pools may not include updated drain covers, secure barriers, or other protective elements required by current standards. Remodeling provides an opportunity to incorporate modern safety features and create a more secure environment for family members and guests.
Transforming Your Pool’s Aesthetic
The aesthetic transformation of a pool remodel can be dramatic. The interior finish of your pool has a huge impact on its overall appearance. Replacing old, stained plaster with a modern pebble finish or a vibrant quartz finish can completely change the look and feel of your pool. The color of the interior finish also affects the color of the water, with darker finishes creating a more dramatic, lagoon-like appearance and lighter finishes creating a bright, tropical look.
The tile and coping are the jewelry of your pool, framing the water and defining its style. Replacing outdated tile with modern porcelain or glass tile can create a sleek, contemporary look. Upgrading to natural stone coping, such as travertine or limestone, can add a touch of elegance and luxury. The choices you make for these elements will set the tone for your entire outdoor space.
Integrating New Features
A pool remodel is the perfect opportunity to add new features that enhance your enjoyment of the space. Water features, such as deck jets, sheer descents, and cascading waterfalls, add movement, sound, and visual interest to your pool. Fire features, such as fire bowls or linear fire pits, create a dramatic contrast with the water and extend the usability of your outdoor space into the evening. LED lighting can transform your pool at night, creating a magical atmosphere with customizable colors and effects.
