Bartow, in the heart of Central Florida, is a historic town with a laid-back lifestyle. Summers in the "City of Oaks and Azaleas" revolve around the swimming pool for gatherings, celebrations, and cooling off after outdoor adventures.
However, as pools age, they begin to deteriorate and become more of an eyesore—or worse, hazardous. Pool Works is dedicated to preserving your outdoor lifestyle with luxurious, resort-style pool remodeling that will make your backyard sparkle again.
Why Remodel Your Swimming Pool in Bartow?
In addition to improving its appearance, remodeling offers several concrete benefits:
- Improve Energy Efficiency: New pumps and filtration systems are significantly quieter and more energy-efficient than those of a decade ago. These units can drastically reduce your monthly electric bill, and their quieter operation will make relaxing poolside more peaceful.
- Increase Property Value: In Central Florida's competitive real estate market, a professionally renovated pool with modern finishes is a major selling point. While an "ugly" pool can detract up to 10% from your property value, remodeling can increase it.
- Enhance Safety: Old pools can be bruisers. From loose pool handrails to rough surfaces, it can make swimming unpleasant and dangerous. Remodeling ensures your pool meets current safety standards and makes swimming a pleasant experience.
Does My Pool Need Remodeling?
How can you tell if your pool needs remodeling? Look for these warning signs:
- Water Loss: When you find yourself constantly "topping off" the pool, it's usually not evaporation. It often indicates underground plumbing issues or shell cracks.
- Cracked or Peeling Surfaces: When the concrete begins to peel or crack, it can lead to structural leaks.
- Rough Texture: When the floor of your pool scrapes your skin, the plaster has reached the end of its lifespan.
- Stains & Discoloration: Rust stains on the floor and walls or around the deck can “eat” through concrete and cause leaks.
Outdated Design: If you’re tired of your plain 1970s or 80s-style pool, a modern remodel can transform it into a custom, resort-style water feature that suits your lifestyle and budget.
Pool Remodeling Steps
With our complete range of premium materials, colors, and designs, we make remodeling your Bartow swimming pool as easy as painting by numbers.
- Replastering is the first step in any pool remodel. By replacing the old, stained plaster with high-quality materials, we create a stunning canvas for your aquatic journey. It’s smooth, watertight finish not only enhances your pool’s appearance but also elevates the entire outdoor experience.
- Decorative tiles give your pool that custom look. From classic blue mosaics to wavy navy blue glass tiles with gold swirls that shimmer in the sun, new waterline tile provides an instant "wow" factor.
- Pool deck pavers elevate your outdoor oasis. We replace old, cracked, and stained concrete with gorgeous slip-resistant brick or travertine pavers that stay cooler under the summer sun and transform the look of your entire space.
- Aggregate finishing is the final step in the remodeling process. For a premium appearance, we offer pebble, quartz, and other stonescape finishes. This finishing touch not only enhances the visual appeal with its stunning, multi-dimensional colors but also incorporates durable resins that significantly extend your pool's lifespan.
