Pool Renovation & Remodeling

Your existing pool, reimagined for today's standards.

An outdated pool doesn't have to stay outdated. JHL Pools transforms aging, inefficient, or aesthetically dated pools into modern resort environments — often at a fraction of the cost of new construction. Many Chester County and Main Line homes have pools from the 1980s and '90s with sound shells but tired surfaces and obsolete equipment; those are ideal renovation candidates.

Surfaces and tile. We resurface worn plaster with Pebble Tec, quartz, or Diamond Brite, replace cracked or dated waterline tile, and re-set or replace coping to refresh the entire look and feel of the pool.

Equipment and efficiency. Swapping single-speed pumps and old heaters for modern variable-speed pumps, high-efficiency heaters, LED lighting, and Hayward automation cuts operating cost and lets you run the pool from your phone. We can also add a salt chlorine system during a remodel.

Shape, features, and surroundings. Beyond restoration, we add tanning ledges, spas, water features, and new hardscape, and can modify the pool's shape — bringing the whole environment into one cohesive design rather than a patchwork of past repairs.

Why JHL for This Project

  • Complete surface resurfacing and re-tiling
  • Equipment and automation upgrades
  • Deck and coping replacement
  • Shape modification and feature additions
