Common questions about pool remodeling

How much does pool remodeling cost in Gulf Shores?

Costs vary based on scope. A basic replaster starts around $5,000 to $8,000. Full remodels including new tile, coping, equipment, and deck work range from $15,000 to $40,000 or more depending on pool size and material selections. We provide a written estimate after the free assessment.

How long does a pool remodel take?

A resurface-only project takes 1 to 2 weeks. Full remodels with tile, coping, equipment, and deck work typically take 3 to 6 weeks. We provide a written timeline before work starts.

Do I need to drain my pool for a remodel?

Most remodeling work requires draining the pool. We manage the drain process, coordinate with your schedule, and refill as soon as the new surfaces cure. The pool is typically ready to swim within 7 to 14 days after resurfacing depending on the finish type.

What resurfacing finish options do you offer?

We offer standard white plaster, colored plaster, quartz aggregate, and pebble finishes. Pebble finishes like PebbleTec and PebbleSheen are popular in Baldwin County for their durability and resistance to staining in our mineral-heavy water.

Can you update my pool equipment during the remodel?

Yes. We recommend bundling equipment upgrades with surface work since the pool is already drained. Variable-speed pumps, salt systems, heaters, and automation controllers are the most common upgrades.

Can I use my pool during renovation?

In most cases, no. The pool will need to be drained for surface, tile, and structural work. We work to minimize downtime and give you a clear timeline for when your pool will be back in service.

Will a remodel increase my home's value?

A remodeled pool typically improves property value and buyer appeal, especially in Baldwin County where outdoor living space is expected. Updated surfaces, modern equipment, and an attractive deck create a strong impression for appraisals and listings.

Do you handle permits for pool remodeling?

Permit requirements depend on the scope of work. Surface-only projects typically do not require permits. Electrical, plumbing, or structural changes do. DD&B determines what is needed and handles all permitting.

Are your remodeling crews licensed?

DD&B holds GC Pool License #59686 with full general liability and workers’ compensation coverage. Every crew member working on your property is covered.

Can you fix structural cracks in my pool?

Yes. We assess structural issues during the initial inspection. Minor cracks are repaired before resurfacing. Significant structural damage may require additional engineering and reinforcement before finish work.

How do I maintain my pool after a remodel?

We walk you through water chemistry balancing, filter maintenance, and surface care during the handover. New plaster finishes require a specific startup process for the first 30 days. We provide written instructions and are available by phone if questions come up.
