It's normal for swimming pools to succumb to wear and tear over time, but it can be difficult for those outside of the industry to tell when their pools need to be remodeled. However, there are a few different telltale signs to look out for.
Though not quite what many people think of when deciding whether to remodel their pool, the presence of leaks and cracks in a pool is one of the most urgent reasons to remodel. This is because leaks can cause extensive damage to the foundation of your pool and the surrounding land if left unchecked.
It's always necessary to completely renovate a pool when these problems are present. Not only will this prevent any further costly damage to your pool and the land around it, but it also completely eliminates the original problem, ensuring that your pool will be free of leaks and cracks for years to come.
Having outdated plumbing, pumps, filters, and other equipment is another great reason to remodel your pool. These parts are essential in keeping your pool safe and clean, and if they aren't functioning as they should, they need to be replaced entirely.
If your pool is over ten years old, the equipment that was initially installed in your pool is likely just as old, so even if these components still appear to be working correctly, there's no guarantee that they will last long into the future.
If your pool is constantly dirty or you notice loud vibrations, humming, grinding, and screeching coming from your pool, that's a good indication that these components are outdated, not working properly, and must be replaced.
Installing new equipment also provides a number of benefits other than their essential functions, offering enhanced convenience and efficiency. You can say goodbye to your control box and hello to automation and controlling pool systems from your phone.
Older pools tend to be much less energy efficient than newer ones making remodeling your pool a great way to save some money on your energy bill in the long run. We use the most energy-efficient parts on the market so that you can rest assured knowing that your newly remodeled pool is as eco-friendly as possible.
While completely remodeling your pool just because you need to replace the lights probably isn't necessary, it's definitely something to consider if you do decide to remodel your pool.
Broken lights are common issues, but they can threaten the safety of anyone swimming in the pool, especially children. Lighting issues are usually caused by some broader electrical problem, and there's no easier time to repair or replace the light system in your pool than when it's already being remodeled.
We suggest installing LED lights because they are the brightest and most efficient option when it comes to pool lighting. You can even install color-changing LEDs to give your pool a bit of flair.
Some styles stand the test of time, but others simply don't. If your pool's style looks horribly outdated, then you should consider remodeling it to enhance its visual appeal, increase the property value of your home, and improve its overall efficiency and energy consumption.
Older pools also tend to lack the features often included in most modern-day pools, but by remodeling, you can choose and customize all of the modern features you'd like to have in your new pool. From options like grills and fireplaces to spas and hot tubs, there's no limit to the features you can include in your dream pool.
Having a faded or otherwise damaged pool deck is another great reason to consider remodeling your pool. From simple cracks to more severe issues like wood rot, chemical stains, and mold, San Jose Pool Resurfacing & Plastering has the expertise to make your pool deck look new again.
