How to Know When It’s Time for Pool Remodeling

Your pool should be a place of enjoyment, not stress. But over time, even the best pools start to wear down — or simply go out of style. If you're wondering whether it's time to remodel your pool, you're not alone. Many homeowners delay updates, unsure of the right moment to make a change.

At Kingswood Outdoors, we specialize in turning outdated or worn-down pools into modern backyard showpieces. In this blog, we’ll explore the top signs that it’s time for a pool remodel and how to approach the process wisely.

1. Cracks, Leaks, or Surface Damage

If your pool is cracking, leaking, or showing significant surface damage, it’s not just an eyesore — it can also lead to bigger issues like water loss and soil erosion. These are often early warning signs that remodeling is needed to restore both safety and appearance.

2. Outdated Design and Features

Pools built over a decade ago may lack modern features like energy-efficient equipment, smart automation, or popular design elements like tanning ledges or water features. Remodeling gives you the opportunity to bring your pool up to date and increase its value and functionality.

3. Inefficient Equipment and Plumbing

Older pools often rely on outdated pumps, filters, and plumbing that drive up energy bills and decrease performance. Remodeling your pool gives you the chance to upgrade to energy-efficient solutions that can save you money in the long run.

4. Safety Concerns

If your pool has outdated drains, slippery surfaces, or broken lighting, safety should be your top priority. Pool remodeling allows you to address these issues head-on — protecting your family and ensuring compliance with current safety standards.

5. You’re Updating the Rest of the Backyard

A remodeled patio or landscaping project can make your existing pool look out of place. By remodeling your pool at the same time, you ensure your entire backyard flows together beautifully — especially when working with a design team like ours that handles the full outdoor living vision.
