Pool Remodeling Process
Our professional pool builders in Gainesville, Florida will be with you every step of the way during the process of remodeling your pool.
We will help you from start to finish during the remodeling of your pool and together, let’s transform your old pool into a sparkling oasis!
These are the steps we do for pool remodeling to help you understand what our pool installers in Gainesville, Florida will do during the process.
The very first step is to drain your pool completely. This is usually done by placing a submersible pump at the bottom of your pool, with a hose leading out to the street. Depending on the size of your pool, the draining process takes about 6 to 12 hours.
Once the pool is empty, the surface needs to be chipped out and then primed to prepare for the new surface.
Usually, chipping out the pool only takes about a half-day, which is a good thing because this is often the loudest part of the process. Our contractors will then clean up the gunite shell afterward.
The tiles can now be applied since your pool has already been chipped out. Although this step depends on whether you like your pool to be tiled. But pools with tiles are always beautiful to look at.
When you decide to use tiles, you get to choose what type of tiles we will be putting in your newly-remodeled pool. We apply the grout when installing the tiles. This process can take one to two days depending on how many tiles there are and how complex the tiles are.
The pool surface will be pebble and plaster. We will mix them in the right consistency and amount, and the mixture, delivered by our trucks, is pumped using large hoses into your pool.
Our plaster artisans will hand trowel the surface and so that the result is even and secure. The hand troweling takes approximately 4 to 6 hours.
This officially signifies the start of the pre-filling step. Pebble application is generally quick and should only take a few hours. Once the pebble application is completed, we finish with an acid wash over the pebble surface.
Once the pebble acid and plaster are in place, we begin adding the water. The water must reach halfway up the tile line or the skimmer opening before the water flow is turned off.
It is important that as the homeowner, you should be present during this process because you’ll be the one to ensure that the water is continuously flowing until it fills up the pool.
You may slow it down if you wish but don’t turn off the tap until the pool is filled up. Depending on the pool size and water pressure, filling up the pool should take a total of 12 to 48 hours.

Many old pools use old equipment. While it may still be doing the job, many of the old equipment use a lot more energy than it needs to, and in the end, you spend more than you should.
Upgrading to new and modern pool equipment brings you the benefit of energy efficiency. For instance, new variable speed pool pumps use less energy than ever. New filters and electrical equipment are also more energy-efficient than their old counterparts.
More than a decade ago, plaster was the only pool finish used. Although plaster did the job, it didn’t elevate the aesthetic touches of the pool.
But now, new aggregate finishes are in the market and these finishes not only last longer, but they also add a unique, breathtaking appeal to the pool. A new finish is indeed a great benefit when you remodel your pool.
