Pool Remodeling Service
Swimming Pool Remodeling Services in Houston
Houston pools take a beating that pools in other cities simply don’t face. Expansive clay soil shifts foundations and cracks shells. Hard water leaves calcium deposits and surface staining that standard cleaning can’t touch. Scorching summers push UV damage and chemical imbalance to extremes year-round.
Since 1976, Cabana Pools Aquatech has been remodeling pools specifically in the Houston area. We know what causes your pool’s problems and we fix them the right way, the first time.

Pool remodeling Signs
Clear Signs Your Houston Pool Needs Remodeling
Surface & Structural Issues:
- Rough plaster causing discomfort or injuries to swimmers
- Visible cracks in pool shell or deck surfaces
- Loose, broken, or missing waterline tiles
- Persistent staining that won't respond to cleaning
- Fading or discolored interior surfaces
- Visible gunite or rebar showing through worn plaster
Functional & Efficiency Problems:
- Frequent equipment breakdowns and repairs
- Rising monthly maintenance and chemical costs
- Excessive energy bills from aging pumps and heaters
- Poor water circulation and persistent algae issues
- Leaks causing water loss and high water bills
- Outdated manual controls requiring constant adjustment
Aesthetic & Design Concerns:
- Pool style that looks dated compared to modern designs
- Color schemes that no longer match your home's exterior
- Missing features you wish your pool had (lighting, water elements)

If you are noticing two or more of these signs, a professional remodeling consultation is the smart next step. Addressing multiple issues at once during a planned remodel is significantly more cost-effective than handling them as separate emergency repairs over time.
Why Choose Us
Why Houston Homeowners Choose Us for Pool Remodeling
50+ Years of Remodeling Experience
We have been remodeling pools across the Houston area since 1976.

We handle every phase of your remodel in-house: surface work, tile, coping, deck, equipment, electrical, plumbing, automation, and permitting. You do not need to coordinate between multiple subcontractors or manage the project yourself. One team, one point of contact, one warranty.
Ongoing Service After Your Remodel
Because we also provide weekly pool cleaning and equipment repair, we are invested in the long-term performance of every remodel we complete. The finishes we apply and the equipment we install are the same systems our weekly technicians will maintain. That alignment means we choose materials that last and install equipment that performs, because we will be servicing it for years to come.
Houston homeowners
Why Houston Homeowners Are Remodeling Their Pools
Home values across Houston and its surrounding communities have risen steadily. A well-executed pool remodel adds measurable value and transforms how you use your backyard. In neighborhoods like River Oaks, Memorial, Bellaire, and Hedwig Village where outdoor living is central to the home’s appeal, a dated pool works against your property rather than for it.
Beyond value, many Houston homeowners are remodeling because their pool’s surface finish has reached the end of its useful life. Standard plaster typically lasts 7 to 10 years in Texas heat before it requires attention. Pebble and quartz finishes last significantly longer and perform better in Houston’s hard water conditions.
Best time
Best Time to Remodel Your Pool in Houston
Fall through early spring (October through March) is the ideal window for pool remodeling in Houston for several reasons:
Lower demand, faster scheduling:
Most homeowners wait until spring or summer, which creates a backlog. Booking your remodel in the off-season typically means faster project starts and shorter timelines.
Better working conditions:
Houston's cooler fall and winter temperatures (still mild by national standards) are actually ideal for plaster curing. Extreme summer heat can cause rapid surface curing that increases the risk of crazing and discoloration.
Contractor availability:
Off-season remodeling gives you more flexibility in scheduling and often allows for more detailed attention from crews who are not rushing between summer projects.
That said, Cabana Pools Aquatech completes quality remodels year-round based on your schedule. If your pool needs attention now, waiting creates risk of further deterioration that increases the eventual cost. We will advise you honestly on whether timing matters for your specific situation.

FAQs
FAQs About Our Pool Remodeling Services in Houston
How long does a pool remodel take in Houston?
Timeline depends on the scope of the project. A surface refinish typically takes one to two weeks. A full remodel with new features, coping, decking, and equipment upgrades can take four to eight weeks. We provide a clear project timeline during the consultation.
How does Houston's clay soil affect my pool remodel?
Expansive clay soil is the single biggest factor that makes Houston pool remodeling different from other markets. It causes shells to crack, coping to shift, and decks to heave. We assess soil conditions during our initial inspection and factor it into our structural repair approach. Ignoring soil movement during a remodel means the cracks come back.
My pool cracked after the last drought, is that structural or cosmetic?
Drought-related cracks in Houston pools are typically caused by clay soil shrinkage pulling the shell. Whether they are structural or cosmetic depends on the crack width, location, and whether they are moving. We assess this during your inspection. A hairline crack in plaster only is treated differently than a crack that runs through the gunite shell.
Will remodeling increase my home's value?
Yes. Updated pools significantly enhance property appeal in Houston’s competitive real estate market and can increase home value by $20,000 to $50,000 or more depending on the scope of upgrades and your neighborhood. A remodeled pool attracts more buyers and often results in faster sales.
Do you pull permits for Houston pool remodeling work?
Yes. Work that requires permits under City of Houston or Harris County regulations is permitted by our team. We handle the paperwork and inspections. Never hire a contractor who suggests skipping permits, it creates real problems when you sell your home.
What if we discover structural problems during remodeling?
Our comprehensive inspection typically identifies structural issues before work begins. If unexpected problems arise, we immediately inform you, explain options, and provide pricing for necessary repairs. We never proceed with additional work without your approval.
Do you offer financing for swimming pool remodeling?
Yes. We work with financing partners offering flexible payment plans for qualified homeowners. Ask about current financing options during your consultation.
When is the best time of year to remodel a Houston pool?
October through December is ideal, mild temperatures support proper plaster curing and contractor availability is better. That said, we complete quality remodels year-round. If you have active damage like cracks or a leak, waiting until fall may cause additional deterioration and higher eventual cost.
