A well-designed pool should be a source of relaxation, fun, and beauty—but over time, even the best pools start to show signs of wear. If your pool is beginning to look outdated, feel less efficient, or require constant maintenance, it may be time for a renovation. Updating your pool not only restores its beauty and functionality but can also improve energy efficiency, safety, and long-term value.
At Essig Pools & Pavers, we specialize in transforming aging pools into modern, luxurious retreats. Here are the key signs that your pool may be due for an upgrade and how we can help bring it back to life.
1. Fading Finishes & Outdated Tile
If your pool’s plaster is rough, discolored, or peeling, or if your tiles look outdated or chipped, it’s a clear sign that resurfacing is needed. Not only does a new finish restore the pool’s appearance, but it also prevents leaks and improves comfort.
Solution:
✔ Upgrade to a durable pebble, quartz, or glass tile finish for a sleek, long-lasting look
✔ Replace outdated tiles with modern mosaics or natural stone for a refreshed aesthetic
2. Cracks, Leaks, & Structural Damage
Small cracks may seem minor, but they can lead to water loss and costly damage if ignored. Leaks not only increase water bills but can also weaken the surrounding structure over time.
Solution:
✔ Conduct a professional inspection to detect leaks early
✔ Repair structural cracks and apply high-quality resurfacing materials for added strength
✔ Upgrade to reinforced finishes that enhance durability
3. Inefficient or Outdated Equipment
Are you spending too much on energy bills or constant repairs? Older pool pumps, filters, and heaters consume more power and require frequent maintenance. Modern energy-efficient systems reduce operating costs while enhancing performance.
Solution:
✔ Install a variable-speed pump to cut energy use by up to 70%
✔ Upgrade to a saltwater or smart chlorination system for easier maintenance
✔ Switch to LED lighting for energy savings and vibrant ambiance
4. Lack of Modern Features
If your pool lacks the luxury and convenience of modern designs, now is the perfect time to upgrade. Features like sun shelves, built-in spas, water features, and smart automation can enhance comfort, usability, and style.
Solution:
✔ Add tanning ledges, waterfalls, or bubblers for a resort-like feel
✔ Install smart automation to control temperature, lighting, and filtration from your phone
✔ Expand your pool deck with travertine or natural stone pavers for a seamless look
