A Smarter Path to a Beautiful Pool Remodel

The decisions behind a good Dickinson remodel, in the order we make them: what the shell and lines need, which surface suits hard district water, what the deck should be on gumbo clay that never stops moving, and what to upgrade while the pool is open.

Dickinson pools along Bayou Lakes and Bayou Chantilly have been through Harvey and a run of tropical storms that put bayou water over the decks and silt in the plumbing, and the plaster and tile on the older pools show it, along with coping and decks that have settled on clay that floods and dries every year. A remodel here usually fixes what the storms did as much as what the years did.

On a Dickinson pool we assume the lines have carried silt and the shell has moved, so the water comes out, the lines are pressure tested and flushed, and the skimmer and light niches are rebuilt before the finish is chosen; the surface is the last decision, not the first.

What a remodel covers

“Most Dickinson remodels start at the waterline and end at the equipment pad. Here is what we look at and why.”

Surfaces, tile, coping, and decking

Interior finish sets the water color; quartz, pebble, glass bead, and marble finishes each read differently in sun and shade, and the right one depends on how you swim and how long-lasting you need it to be over the lifetime of the pool under Gulf humidity, pollen, and afternoon storms. Tile and coping connect the pool to the house, while decking choices such as stamped concrete, pavers, and natural stone decide how hot and how slick the surface gets in a Texas August and how the pool fits the rest of the outdoor living space, from a small inground pool to a luxury backyard retreat with tanning ledges and spas, across 27 cities.

Samples looked at outdoors next to your existing materials are where our pool remodeling services and pool renovation services begin, weighing durability, upkeep, and budget alongside looks; designers explain the variety of options and the information behind each one clearly, so the custom pool you end up with is the one you pictured, whatever Gulf humidity, pollen, and afternoon storms did to the old one. Explore the gallery below and the pool designs elsewhere on this website, and tell us which finishes fit your Dickinson outdoor space; 713-636-5751 takes it from there.

The remodel sequence, start to finish

Every one of our pool renovations follows the same order: an initial evaluation, scope and selections, the permitting step where Dickinson requires permits, draining and demolition of the outdated finish, structural repairs to the shell and plumbing, tile and coping, the new interior finish, then fill-up and a careful startup, the same order in all 27 cities. Because the timelines are based on the scope and the weather, a clear scope and budget up front keep a Dickinson pool out of service for as short a time as possible and the work within what you approved; for a larger remodel, contact us to discuss financing options alongside the scope, because a remodel is an investment in the entire backyard, in any of the 27 cities we serve.

The first weeks on a new finish call for specific brushing and water-balance steps; the startup is handled by us, the same pool builders who build custom pools and gunite swimming pools and take on pool construction from the ground up in Greater Houston, across 27 cities, and we explain what changes for your regular pool maintenance afterward. Blue Science is licensed, insured, and certified (Texas Appliance License TICL 587), backs the work with a written warranty, and our very responsive customer service team keeps you informed with updates while the pool is out of service, Monday - Friday 7am - 6pm, Saturday 9am - 2pm.

Equipment and lighting worth upgrading during the remodel

Once the water is out, lights, fittings, drains, and plumbing connections are reachable in a way they will not be again for years, in any of the 27 cities we serve. Known issues, damage, and energy hogs are assessed before demolition, and justified pool equipment upgrades such as LED lighting, a variable-speed pump, or a fire feature join the same project, which typically saves Dickinson owners money compared with a separate installation later; 713-636-5751 takes the questions.

Condition and compatibility decide whether equipment stays; a replacement is recommended only when the numbers and your expected use of the pool require it, and the projects we complete for Dickinson homeowners, like all the homeowners we serve across Greater Houston, follow the same industry standards for precision and durable results; 713-636-5751 reaches the team.

Questions Dickinson Pool Owners Ask

How long is the pool out of service for a replaster?

Blue Science team member

About two weeks from drain to swim: a day or two to drain and chip, a day for the new surface, then the fill and a month of daily brushing while it cures. We plan it around your calendar because you are out of the water for the whole stretch.

Answered by a Blue Science pool builder, Greater Houston

Can you remodel an existing pool?

Yes, and most Dickinson pools are better candidates for a remodel than for a new pool. The shell is usually sound; what wears out is the surface, the tile and coping, the deck, the lights, and the equipment. A remodel drains the pool, repairs the shell and plumbing where needed, replaces the interior finish, tile, and coping, and can add lighting, water features, a sun shelf, or a new deck before fill-up and startup. Our Dickinson remodels run through evaluation, scope and selections, demolition, repairs, tile and coping, the new finish, then fill-up and a startup we handle ourselves.

How long does a pool remodel take?

It depends on the scope. A resurfacing alone keeps a Dickinson pool out of service for a couple of weeks including cure and startup; add tile and coping and it runs longer; a full remodel with new decking and equipment is a project of several weeks. The written scope carries the schedule, and the sequence is planned so the pool is drained once and refilled once.

How do I know my pool needs resurfacing?

Rough plaster that scuffs feet, stains that no longer brush out, hollow spots or blisters where the finish has let go of the shell, exposed aggregate, and calcium nodules are the signs. Most finishes in Dickinson last a decade or more, but Gulf humidity, pollen, and afternoon storms shorten that. If the water is hard to keep balanced no matter what goes in, the surface is often the reason.

Should I remodel my pool or build a new one?

If the shell is sound, remodel. Almost everything an owner dislikes about an older Dickinson pool is on the surface or the pad: the finish, the tile, the deck, the lights, the equipment. A new pool makes sense when you want the pool somewhere else or in a different shape, or when the shell has structural damage. Our evaluation looks at the shell first and tells you which one you have.
