A pool is a fantastic investment for most homeowners. It provides a great place to relax and enjoy your property, and it even provides health and fitness benefits. Eventually, though, even the best pool may need updates and possibly a full remodel.
If you’re considering remodeling your pool, it might seem completely overwhelming. Here are the basics of a pool remodel to help you understand what your contractor will do during the process.
Process of a Pool Remodel
Pool Design Consultation
Want to remodel your pool but aren’t sure where to start? Get a design consultation from a local pool builder! During a design consultation, you’ll be presented with an array of options, like resurfacing materials, tile, hardscaping, water features, LED lighting, and more. You may even discuss ways to make your pool more energy efficient, like upgrading to a salt sanitation system or installing an automation timer and controller. It’s the perfect time to completely customize your pool to exactly what you want.
During this design consultation, the pool builder will probably give you an estimate of how much it will cost to remodel your pool. This will help you determine your budget.
If you have several pool builders in your area, it may be a good idea to get multiple estimates and compare. Along with the price, you’ll want to consider what each builder can offer. Read their reviews and view their completed projects. Sometimes a cheaper quote is not the best option, so make your choice carefully.
Get a Pool Building Permit
You’ll more than likely need to get a pool permit in order to remodel your existing pool. Every municipality is different, so contact your local building department for more information. Your chosen pool builder may also be able to inform you about what you’ll need to apply for a permit. This may take time, so be patient.
Apply for Pool Remodel Financing
Next, you’ll want to apply for pool remodel financing. This used to be one of the most challenging aspects of getting a pool remodeled, but not with HFS Financial. It’s easy to apply through us, and you’ll get all of the funding you need to get the remodel started.
Remodel Your Pool
Finally, it’s time to actually remodel your pool. This may take a couple of weeks, but it is well worth it in the end. First, the crew will drain your pool completely of water. Then, they’ll get to work. Depending on the extent of your remodel, they may remove big chunks of your old pool. Then in comes the new surfacing material, tile, lighting, and water features. Bit by bit, your pool will be completely transformed. Once everything is done, the crew will refill your pool, balance the water chemistry, and then your pool is ready for you.
Enjoy!
The final step in your pool remodel is to enjoy your new-to-you pool. You may even want to throw a pool party to celebrate. Invite all your friends and family over to show off your new pool.
