Frequently Asked Questions
How much does it cost to renovate a pool?
Renovating a pool costs $5,597 to $15,775 in most cases, with an average of about $10,483, according to HomeAdvisor. Small projects start around $1,600, while full remodels can reach $30,000. A new interior finish is usually the largest single cost, at $6,000 to $15,000 for resurfacing. New tile, coping, decking and equipment are priced on top, so the scope you choose drives the final number.
Can you remodel an existing pool?
Yes, you can remodel an existing pool, and most concrete pools can be updated many times over their life. A remodel can include a new interior finish, waterline tile, coping, a new deck, a Baja shelf, an attached spa or water features. As long as the shell is structurally sound, remodeling costs far less than building a new pool. We check the shell, plumbing and equipment before recommending a scope of work.
Is it cheaper to remodel a pool or build a new one?
Remodeling a pool is much cheaper than building a new one. HomeAdvisor puts the average remodel at about $10,483, while a new in-ground pool costs $44,300 to $86,500. Because a concrete shell can last for decades, remodeling makes sense for most older pools in Los Angeles. Building new is only worth it when the shell has failed structurally or you want a completely different size, shape or location.
What is the best type of pool resurfacing?
The best type of pool resurfacing for most homes is a pebble or quartz finish, because both last much longer than standard plaster. Plaster lasts about 5 to 10 years, quartz about 15 to 20 years and pebble more than 20. Plaster costs the least upfront, so it can make sense if you plan to sell soon. For a house you plan to keep, pebble usually costs less for each year of use.
How long does it take to refinish a pool?
Refinishing a pool takes about five working days of on-site work, according to HomeAdvisor, plus time to refill the pool and balance the water. A larger renovation that also replaces tile, coping or the deck takes longer, since each trade works in sequence. The new finish then needs regular brushing and careful water balancing for the first few weeks while it cures. Weather and permit inspections can add a few days.
