Generally, expect to pay anywhere from $5,000 up to $20,000 for a pool remodeling job. Basic pool resurfacing will run on the lower end of that range while plumbing and technology upgrades will fall on the higher end. Also pool will be brought up to codes. A complete backyard pool transformation can run up to $100,000. Other factors involving a pool cost will be the location of the pool, is it hillside? slope?
The length of time to complete your pool remodel project really depends on the scope of work being performed. If you desire to replace coping, tile, and plaster, you can typically expect your swimming pool and hot tub remodel to be complete within three weeks or less. A hillside, slope may need further investigations and soil reports prior to starting.
Traditional pool resurfacing materials require a high level of maintenance and will only last 5-10 years before it needs to be replaced. We generally would expect a Pebble Tec surface to last upwards of 20 years with proper maintenance.

Yes they will, however, don’t expect to get a complete return on your investment. But do take into consideration that many homebuyers are attracted to homes with pools and inviting backyards.
Hiring a general contractor is a good idea for many remodeling projects. Home renovation contractors have a broad range of skills to manage, coordinate and complete a project. They should help make sure your project comes in on time and within your budget as they hire and supervise all the necessary subcontractors, including electricians and plumbers. They also handle procuring all the materials required for your job. Some homeowners look to save money by acting as their own contractor, but an experienced home renovation contractor is worth the cost. They should know local building codes, be able to pull all necessary permits, and work with inspectors to make sure the construction meets local codes. Also, because they get professional discounts, they can typically buy materials at a better price than you can; better prices on materials and labor save you money, and make up for at least a percentage of the cost of the contractor.
Our estimates typically last well over an hour. We like to take our time hearing you out, and answering any questions you have. Our Project Managers usually have photos to show you of our work, and examples of materials.
