Rendered steps ready for tiling during a pool refurbishment

Pools are built to last, but nothing lasts forever. There comes a point where repeated repairs cost more than putting things right properly. Here's how to tell when you've reached it.

Signs your swimming pool needs refurbishing

  • The water level drops more than evaporation explains, which may mean a leak
  • Loose, cracked or missing tiles, or grout washing out
  • A liner that's faded, wrinkled, brittle or has been patched several times
  • Plant that keeps breaking down, or parts that are hard to get
  • Heating that costs far more than it should
  • A pool that just looks tired and doesn't get used

What a refurbishment can include

A refurbishment can be as focused or as complete as you need. It might be a new liner or new tiles, new steps, upgraded plant, more efficient heating, a cover, or new copings and surrounds. Many owners use it as a chance to change the look of the pool completely.

Upgrading at the same time

If the pool is being drained and worked on anyway, it's the most cost-effective time to upgrade the equipment. Modern heat pumps, covers, controllers and AFM filtration can make an older pool cheaper to run and easier to look after.
