There's no feeling quite like a brand-new swimming pool. Looking out at a pool's picturesque surface and dreaming about an afternoon dip is a great way to start your morning, and the freedom of people able to go for a swim whenever you please is hard to beat. While the feeling of having a swimming pool all of your own might never fade, the pool itself will start to show its age over time. If you're in this situation, you might be asking yourself: is it time to repair or remodel?
While similar in name and overall intention, the difference between pool repair and pool remodeling can be quite significant. Therefore, it is crucial that Central Florida homeowners know how to tell when repairs are necessary –– or when it's time for a full-scale remodel. Sea Breeze Pools has a decade of experience in both pool remodeling and swimming pool repair and has put together this guide to decipher when one is necessary over the other.
Keep Your Swimming Pool Ready-to-Go Year-Round
Pool Repair vs. a Pool Remodeling Project
Swimming Pool Repairs
Repairs are more common than swimming pool remodeling projects, but this does not mean that repairs are any less important. Keeping up-to-date on repairs is crucial, as without regular repairs, seemingly minor damage can accumulate and create major issues down the road. Common repairs include:
Leaky swimming pool pumps
Skimmer leaks
Clogged pumps
Dirty filters
Many of these swimming pool projects take only a few hours to accomplish, making them a far smaller undertaking than a remodel. Still, those few hours of labor can add up — and it's never a bad idea to rely on the experts.
Swimming Pool Remodeling Projects
Whereas pool repairs refer to common issues which arise with pool equipment, a swimming pool remodeling project is a far less frequent occurrence. There are a number of reasons why you might be remodeling your pool — perhaps you want new pool tile, a more visually-striking pool deck, or need to refinish the swimming pool's surface. No matter the reason, a swimming pool remodeling project can breathe new life into the entire pool area and give homeowners a chance to have their "dream pool" again. A few common projects included in a swimming pool remodel are:
Refinishing the pool's surface
Resurfacing pavers
Repairing decks on concrete pools
Sea Breeze Pools specializes in creative pool remodeling projects and can completely reimagine your outdoor space with just a few strategic changes. For homeowners that are interested in a more dramatic remodeling project, however, we can also apply our remodeling process to larger redesigns.
Pool Repair or Pool Remodeling: Which One is for You?
For starters, pool repair is for everyone: and is crucial to extending the life of your pool. Regular pool service keeps pool equipment in working order, ensuring that the pool is a fun and safe space for all guests. Eventually, however, it's likely that homeowners might opt to take on a swimming pool remodeling project. After a few years, many pool owners feel it's time to reinvigorate their pool, and a remodeling project is a great way to inject new life into an outdoor space.
