Pool Remodeling in North Houston

North Houston is full of pools that were state of the art in 1978. In the Champions area, Northgate Forest, Ponderosa Forest and Kleinbrook, the shells are generally solid, but everything around them is from another era: small steps in a corner, a single white light, blue-and-white tile, brick coping heaved by clay, and an equipment pad that has been rebuilt piece by piece.

What we see in North Houston

Common pool remodeling problems in North Houston

Remodeling these pools is some of the most satisfying work we do, because the change is so visible. Most projects combine a new finish, new tile and coping, better steps, LED lighting and efficient equipment. North Houston’s clay means we look hard at the coping beam and deck joints first.

  • Pools from the 1970s and 1980s with worn surfaces
  • Coping heaved or loosened by clay movement
  • Corner steps and no benches
  • Single lights and dated tile
  • Inefficient equipment on rebuilt pads

A local tip

In the Champions area and neighbouring subdivisions, check your deed restrictions for anything visible from the street before planning major changes. Most remodels are straightforward, but it is worth confirming early.

Local questions

Pool remodeling questions from North Houston pool owners

General questions are on the service page. These are the ones that come up in North Houston.

What makes North Houston pools good remodel candidates?

Most have sound shells with worn-out surfaces and equipment — exactly what a remodel replaces. The result is a modern pool for far less than a new one. Many were built in the same era, so the work is familiar to us. We check the shell at the first visit.

Can you add benches or a tanning ledge to an older pool?

Often, depending on the shell and the space. Benches and wide entry steps are the most common additions on older North Houston pools. A tanning ledge needs enough room in the shallow end. We assess it at the walkthrough and tell you what is realistic.

Do North Houston remodels need permits?

Requirements depend on the work and whether you are inside the city limits or in unincorporated Harris County. Electrical and plumbing changes can require permits. We tell you what applies to your project.

Should I replace equipment during a North Houston remodel?

Usually, yes. Most North Houston pads have ageing single-speed pumps and mixed equipment, and a remodel is the natural time to replace it. A variable-speed pump and a properly sized filter reduce running costs. Doing it with the remodel avoids a second disruption.
