Whether you want to refinish your pool or you want to turn part of that deep diving pool into a play area, the possibilities for pool remodels are endless. As with any home improvement project, you may yearn for the pool remodel of your dreams - but question whether or not you have reason to. Pool remodels are something that you should put thought into before doing, as they can be a significant undertaking, depending on what you have done. That said, there are plenty of reasons to remodel your pool that more than justify the cost!

Here are 6 wonderful reasons to remodel your pool if you’re on the fence about whether or not this is a project you should tackle or not. 

#1. Encourage Time With Your Family

Family is so important, but it can be challenging to get everyone together to enjoy some quality bonding time. When you remodel your pool, this turns it into a part of your home everyone can ooh and aah over and want to spend time in and around. Spend a summer evening barbequing while the kids swim, relax with snacks, or play games together. There’s nothing like living in the moment - and having a freshly remodeled pool is perfect to encourage time with your family.

#2. Increase Home Value

There are so many home improvement projects to choose from in order to increase your home value - and remodeling your pool is one of them. If your pool is outdated or otherwise in need of an upgrade, it can turn potential buyers off. However, if you remodel your pool, even something as simple as having it refinished can increase the value of your property. 

This gives you benefits two-fold - a more beautiful pool you and your family can enjoy now, and increased home value your future self will thank you for. 

#3. Create A Personal Sanctuary

Remodeling your pool gives you the opportunity to transform your pool however you desire. Perhaps you yearn for a hot tub addition. Perhaps you want it to be longer, suitable for swimming. Perhaps you’re not a fan of the color or the feel of the finish and want to make some changes. Whatever’s irking you about your current pool, a remodel can likely fix, allowing you to create your own personal sanctuary. 

#4. Enhance The Beauty And Colors Of Your Backyard

Pool water color is a tricky thing. It’s something we’ve written blogs on before and done videos on, and something that we always want to help pool owners understand. The exact same pool finish can result in two very different water colors depending on a wide array of factors, such as pool depth, length, location, the surrounding environment, and more.

Remodeling your pool gives you the chance to consult with your pool contractor about the ideal pool finish to enhance the beauty and colors of your backyard. They’ll be able to advise you on realistic expectations for your specific pool so that your property can look as beautiful as possible. 

#5. Bring The Party Back To Your Place

Having a pool on your property is an almost surefire way to make it the most popular spot on the block, for kids and adults alike. Kids will love being able to cannonball and pool-noodle battle with their friends; teenagers will love a spot to lay out, goof off, and gossip during summer; and adults will cherish having a place where they can sit back and relax, get some exercise in, or have fun with their friends.

However, if your pool is outdated or otherwise in need of remodeling, it may not be the hotspot it once was. Remodeling your pool to a more modern aesthetic, to have the features you desire, and its safety allows you to continue to bring the party back to your place so that people across age groups can enjoy your pool. 

#6. Improve Safety 

Last but most definitely not least, the most important reason to remodel your pool is to improve its safety. When you have a pool, you’re definitely aware of safety risks, like potential drowning. But are you aware of the safety risks an old pool can pose?

If your pool is in need of a remodel, it might just look old or it may no longer suit your needs. However, it could also need to be remodeled for the safety of those using it. You may need to update electrical systems, old and cracking plaster, anti-entrapment filters, and more in order to preserve the safety of your loved ones and their friends.
