A pool will provide years of entertainment and value, but nothing truly lasts forever. At some point, you will notice that the lining is starting to crack, or the decking has faded. Perhaps you weren’t the owner that built the pool and you’re hoping to make it your own by updating the design. Whatever your reason, there’s never been a better time than now to update your pool!
Exciting Pool Renovations
Don’t be overwhelmed by the idea of renovations for your pool. If you’ve noticed wear and tear, keep in mind that the longer you wait, the bigger the problem may get. Take the opportunity to create the pool you’ve always wanted. From fire features to decking, the following updates can transform the entire look and feel of your pool.
1) Fire
A pool is the best place to spend a summer day, but what happens when the sun goes down? A fire feature is the perfect way to create a night-time focal feature. Place comfortable seating around the fire, inviting guests to wind down and stay warm. Let the conversation and relaxation flow with this unique feature.
2) Coping
Coping provides a cap for the edge of the pool. Although it’s a structural necessity, the coping provides a decorative accent. Poured concrete allows the coping to flow directly from the patio surface. This creates a more cohesive look. It can also be stamped or stained to give it additional flare.
3) Tile
Tile can be used to add instant class to your pool renovation. Glass tile, in particular, lends an artisan feel to pool siding. Incorporate tile with vibrant sparkle and watch the sun cast rainbows on the surface of your pool. Add a splash of color with dramatic tile pairings and accents. Adding tile allows you to stay true to the style of your home while adding a subtle difference.
4) Decking
Decking comes in a variety of styles and material. The most common is cement, which is easily stained and painted to resemble wood, tile or stone. It’s durable, doesn’t get too hot and has traction to avoid slips. If your cement decking has seen better days, it might be time to restain it or opt for another material. Brick and wood are elegant options. Natural stone always makes a beautiful and cohesive flow from landscape to hardscape.
5) Water Features
A swimming pool waterfall adds a sense of luxury, but also provides relaxing sounds for you to enjoy. This is particularly helpful to mask or hide the noise from a busy road. Waterfall designs range from simple stacked stone to extravagant cave-like structures. Get even more creative with a pool fountain. Create a spa-like atmosphere with a sleek fountain feeding into your hot tub. Add a kid zone equipped with splash fountains to entertain all the kids.
Additional Features
The sky’s the limit when it comes to pool luxury. Add a custom stone slide for the kids or a swim-up bar for entertaining. Deck jets provide additional entertainment for swimmers, as well as visual interest. With today’s custom features, you can even have your own lazy river!
