Pool renovation can completely transform a pool !

The Pool Guy offers customers the opportunity to renovate their in-ground concrete pool. We can take an old worn out pool and turn it into a new beautiful pool !

Below are the basic steps of pool renovation.

The first step after draining and cleaning the pool is to sand-blast the pool if it has been painted.  

     Sand-blasting the pool

After draining and/or sand-blasting the pool, the next step is demolition. if needed the coping stones are removed and the beam around the pool is checked for structural integrity. If the beam is deteriorating it is chipped down to the point where it is a sound base to work from. Loose and cracked tiles are also removed in this phase.

The next phase would be to build up the beam to the proper level, reinstall the coping stones and install new tiles.

    Reinstalling the coping stones

The next step would be to cut and chip around all the existing fittings, light fixtures and drains and apply the bond kote to ensure the new plaster has a good surface to adhere to.

Before renovation

This pool was in a very bad condition all the tiles were off the walls and many of the coping stones were broken and more broke up when we lifted them, so the decision was made to fit all new coping stones. This combined with all new tiles and re-plastering produced a brand new pool appearance.
