As the New Mexico sun starts to mellow in Albuquerque, many homeowners begin to consider pool projects. Pool resurfacing is a common consideration, especially as cooler weather arrives, which is ideal for the curing process of new materials. The job starts with draining the pool completely. Then, the existing surface is meticulously prepared by removing old plaster or tile. This step is crucial for the new finish to adhere properly and last for years. The pros then apply the new material, which can be plaster, quartz aggregate, or a pebble finish, ensuring an even and smooth application. After the new surface cures, the pool is refilled with water. Finally, the water chemistry is balanced to ensure it’s safe for swimming. This process revitalizes your pool, making it look great and function perfectly. If your Albuquerque pool needs a refresh, now is a great time to get it scheduled.

What affects the price

Remodeling costs vary based on the scale of your project and the specific materials you choose. Opting for high-end finishes like glass tile or natural stone naturally increases the budget compared to standard plaster. Other factors include the current condition of your pool shell, the complexity of adding features like spas or tanning ledges, and the need for upgraded plumbing or equipment. Whether you are resurfacing the interior or doing a complete structural overhaul, the scope of work dictates the final number. Exact pricing confirmed free on the call.

About this service

A plunge pool is a smaller, deeper pool intended for lounging and cooling off rather than swimming laps. These are perfect for compact backyards or maximizing smaller outdoor living areas. We specialize in designing and installing these custom water features to fit your specific yard layout. The price typically shifts based on the size, stone finishes, and heating options you choose for your oasis. Exact pricing confirmed free on the call.

Remodeling in the summer is possible, though it means your pool will be out of commission while you want to use it most. Some homeowners choose to do minor aesthetic updates or equipment swaps during this time. If you decide to renovate now, we focus on efficient project management to get you back in the water.
