Your Knoxville, TN Swimming Pool Remodel
The reasons for a swimming pool remodel are as unique and varied as the individuals who own them. One fact is universal, though… at some point you will need to eventually remodel and update your swimming pool. The reasons for an upgrade or remodel range from wanting a new look, needing to replaced out of date or inefficient equipment or to simply make a change to the pool’s look and feel.
Your swimming pool remodeling contractor from Tipton Pools can let you know whether you should address “must” items or “want” items as part of your project. Here are some items to consider and budget for: 
- Know what you can afford so you can address the critical components first and cosmetic components second if there is money left in the budget.
- Gather some ideas — from magazines and the Internet — of what you’d like the finished project to look like.
- Consider an upgrade to your landscaping and outdoor living space
- Research prospective contractors.
- Ask for references from prior remodeling projects.
- Check photos of prior projects.
- Ask the contractor for advice on the scope of the project. Can they provide you 3D renderings of the completed project; this is important if you’re updating landscaping.
- Does the plaster of the concrete aka gunite pool need to be replaced or repaired?
- Does the deck need to be renovated as part of the project?
- Are you looking at only cosmetic upgrades? Adding a spa? A diving board? Sun shelves? A fountain?
- Upgrading the pool plaster with newer plaster and even with quartz inlaid styles can add new elegance to your swimming pool.
- Does the pool lighting need an upgrade? You may want to have energy efficient and long-lasting LED lighting installed
- If you want to add a salt water chlorinator, this would be the time.
- Add a pool heater.
- How about adding an automatic pool cover?
This is a very short list of the many items you could consider as part of your concrete pool remodeling project. A remodeling project breathes new life into a pool and can extend its life, and perhaps save you money on operating costs if you upgrade the pool equipment.
