Pool Renovation
Turn Your Tired Pool Into the Backyard Centerpiece Your Home Deserves
An aging pool can drag down the entire look and feel of your outdoor space. Cracked plaster, faded tile, outdated coping, and stained surfaces make even a well-maintained yard feel worn and dated. In South Florida, where pools get used year-round and are constantly exposed to heat, sun, and chemicals, the wear shows faster than in most other parts of the country.
Patios Pools Driveways Inc. is a licensed and insured outdoor contractor serving Palm Beach County and Broward County. From common problems and material options to our process and the areas we serve, we help homeowners bring their pool renovation together from design to installation.
Pool Renovation
Professional Pool Renovation for Palm Beach & Broward Homes
A pool renovation is about more than refreshing how things look. A properly renovated pool holds water better, stays cleaner, is easier to maintain, and is safer for everyone who uses it. Old plaster surfaces develop roughness that irritates skin and wears out pool equipment faster. Outdated tile grout cracks and allows water intrusion. Failing coping pulls away from the deck and creates tripping hazards.
Florida's climate adds extra demands. Pools here are exposed to intense UV, fluctuating water chemistry, and seasonal temperature swings that expand and contract materials year-round. Any renovation work needs to be done with materials and methods suited for that environment — not products that look good on day one and deteriorate within a couple of seasons.
Once the functional side is addressed, there is a lot of room to make the pool truly work for the home. Material selections, tile patterns, coping profiles, and surface colors all combine to create something that feels intentional and fits the architecture and landscape around it.

Why Choose Pool Renovation?
Renovating a pool is one of the highest-return outdoor upgrades a homeowner can make. Rather than dealing with constant repairs to an aging surface, a full renovation resets the clock on the pool's condition and appearance at the same time.
Renovation also gives homeowners complete control over the design. Whether the goal is a clean, modern look with dark plaster and frameless coping, or a resort-style finish with decorative tile and natural stone, a renovation is the opportunity to make those choices from scratch.
A professionally executed pool renovation can help:
- Extend the pool's useful life
- Eliminate rough and stained surfaces
- Reduce ongoing maintenance costs
- Improve water clarity and chemistry
- Update coping, tile, and finishes
- Fix cracking or lifting pool decks
- Resolve drainage and water retention issues
- Boost overall property value
Renovation Options
Surface, Tile & Coping Options & Custom Designs
Every pool is different, and no two renovation projects look exactly the same. Patios Pools Driveways Inc. works with homeowners to find the right combination of materials based on their budget, aesthetic preferences, and how the pool is used.
-
Pool Plaster & Florida Stucco Gem Finishes
Pool plaster resurfacing replaces a worn, stained, or rough interior with a fresh finish that improves both the pool's appearance and swimming comfort. We use Florida Stucco Gem Finishes, a durable pool plaster alternative available in different aggregate colors that influence the final appearance of the water—from bright, light blue to deeper blue and blue-green tones. Gem Finishes are designed to resist staining and spot etching better than traditional pool plaster while providing a slip-resistant, non-abrasive surface. During your pool resurfacing project, we can help you select a finish and water color that complements your tile, coping, pool deck, and overall backyard design.
-
Tile Selections
Pool tile serves both a decorative and functional purpose. The waterline tile protects the area most exposed to chemical fluctuation and UV, while also defining the visual style of the pool. Options range from classic ceramic to glass, stone, and mosaic tile — each with different textures, colors, and price points to suit the project.
-
Coping & Edge Profiles
Coping is the cap that transitions from the pool shell to the surrounding deck, and it has a significant effect on the overall finished look. Travertine, concrete, and brick coping options each create a different feel — from contemporary and minimal to traditional and warm. Coping also affects safety and drainage, so material choice matters beyond appearance.
-
Patterns, Layouts & Color Coordination
The combination of surface color, tile band, and coping material creates a design that is greater than the sum of its parts. Patios Pools Driveways Inc. helps homeowners see how these elements work together before committing, and coordinates the pool renovation with any surrounding deck or patio work to ensure a unified result.

Pool Renovation: Replace or Refresh an Old Pool
Many homeowners reach a point where the rest of the yard has been updated — the patio is new, the landscaping is refreshed, the outdoor kitchen is in — but the pool looks like it belongs to a different decade. The surface is dull, the tile is stained, and the coping has gaps or chips that no amount of cleaning can fix.
That mismatch is one of the most common reasons homeowners start looking into pool renovation. The structure of the pool is still sound, but the surfaces and finishes have run their course. A renovation addresses those issues at the surface level without requiring the cost or disruption of a full replacement. Once complete, the pool reads as new — and so does the outdoor space surrounding it.
Pool Automation
Pool automation allows homeowners to control essential pool functions—such as pumps, lighting, heaters, water features, and cleaning schedules—from a smartphone, tablet, or centralized control panel. Adding a modern pool automation system during a renovation can make daily maintenance easier, improve energy efficiency, and give you more control over how and when your pool operates.
Saltwater Pool Systems
A saltwater pool system uses a salt chlorine generator to produce chlorine automatically, helping maintain cleaner, more consistent water with less reliance on traditional chlorine products. Converting to a saltwater pool during renovation can provide a more comfortable swimming experience, reduce strong chlorine odors, and simplify ongoing pool care when the system is properly installed and maintained.
A pool renovation can help solve problems like:
- Rough or flaking plaster surfaces
- Persistent staining that won't clean
- Cracked or missing waterline tile
- Deteriorating or shifted coping
- Grout failure and water intrusion
- Outdated color or finish style
- Uneven or crumbling pool deck
- Equipment inefficiency from surface wear
Renovation Quality
Designed for Aesthetics, Durability & Year-Round Use
A beautiful pool surface that doesn't hold up to South Florida conditions is not a good investment. The renovation work Patios Pools Driveways Inc. does is designed to perform as well as it looks — through the heat of summer, through heavy rain seasons, and through the everyday chemical demands of a pool that gets used regularly.
We focus on:
- Material selection for Florida climate
- Proper surface bonding and adhesion
- Waterline tile grouted for moisture
- Coping that sheds water cleanly
- Deck-to-pool transitions that last
- Surface smoothness for swimmer comfort
- Color and finish that holds long-term
Outdoor Living
Pool Renovation That Matches Your Outdoor Living Space
A pool renovation does not exist in isolation. The materials and finishes chosen for the pool should coordinate with everything surrounding it — the deck, the patio, the walkways, and any other outdoor features on the property. Patios Pools Driveways Inc. works across all of those areas, which means renovation projects can be designed to feel connected rather than piecemeal.
If you are planning a larger outdoor upgrade, your pool renovation can be designed to complement:
- Pool deck resurfacing or replacement
- Patio construction or expansion
- Travertine or pavers around the pool
- Outdoor kitchen or covered lanai
- Driveway or front entry redesign
- Walkways connecting outdoor areas
- Landscape borders and edging details
