What affects the price

Remodeling your pool is a custom project, so final costs depend heavily on the specific upgrades you select. Replacing simple pool tiles or updating your plaster is generally more affordable than installing entirely new decking, lighting systems, or automation features. The physical size of your pool and the current condition of the plumbing underneath also play a major role in the total bill. If we need to address structural cracks or upgrade aging equipment, you will see the project cost shift accordingly. Exact pricing confirmed free on the call.

About this service

An outdoor pool is any open-air swimming facility, whether it is a private backyard setup or a public community area. These are most popular during the warmer months when natural sunlight and fresh air enhance the swimming experience. If you are looking for an outdoor pool, consider whether you need a lap-focused environment or a casual recreational space. Maintenance for these pools is highly dependent on the local climate and seasonal changes in your region.

Remodeling in the summer is possible, though it means you will be out of the water for a portion of the season. If your equipment fails or your pool needs urgent repairs, we can jump in to fix the issues quickly. We aim to keep the process efficient so you can get back to swimming and hosting backyard events as soon as possible.

Frequently asked in Chicago

What's involved in preparing my Chicago pool for resurfacing?

The initial preparation phase for pool resurfacing in Chicago is critical. It involves draining the pool, thoroughly cleaning the existing surface to remove debris and any failing material, and inspecting the shell for structural integrity. The pros will then acid wash or pressure wash the surface to create a clean canvas for the new material. This meticulous attention to detail ensures optimal adhesion and a long-lasting finish for your pool in Chicago.

How long does it typically take to resurface a pool in Chicago?

The timeline for resurfacing a pool in Chicago can vary, but generally, the process takes about 5 to 10 days from start to finish. This includes draining, surface preparation, application of the new material, and the curing process. The specific duration depends on the chosen resurfacing product and the complexity of the pool's design. The pros will provide a more precise estimate after assessing your individual project.
