Remodeling is about changing what a pool is, not just freshening it up. Where a renovation restores and updates, a remodel reshapes the pool, adds features, and shifts its whole character, turning a plain rectangle into a spa-paired retreat or softening a dated shape into something that finally suits the house. On Venice lots, a smart remodel can also reclaim space you did not know the old layout was wasting.
- Reshaping and resizing existing pools
- Spa, shelf, and water feature additions
- Modern or bohemian restyling
- Updated tile, coping, and finishes
- Reclaiming usable yard space
Reshaping a pool to fit how you live
Many older Westside pools were built around assumptions that no longer hold: a deep end nobody dives into, an awkward kidney shape, or a footprint that eats the yard without giving much back. A remodel is the chance to correct that. We can fill and reshape a deep end into a usable depth, square off a dated freeform into clean modern lines, or do the opposite and soften a hard rectangle into something more organic for a bohemian backyard. The geometry follows your life, not the other way around.
Features are where a remodel really changes the feel of a backyard. A raised spa with a spillway, a tanning shelf with bubblers, a sheer-descent water wall, or modern automation that runs the whole pool from your phone can all be added during a remodel. We design these in together rather than bolting them on, so the plumbing, the equipment, and the look stay coordinated and the finished pool feels like it was always meant to be this way.
On a compact lot, the most valuable remodel is often the one that reclaims space. By reshaping the pool and rebuilding the surround as one move, we can open up deck, add a lounging zone, or simply make a small yard breathe. That spatial gain is hard to see on paper, which is why we show you the remodel in three dimensions before any demolition begins.
Modern and bohemian remodels, done with intent
A remodel is the most direct way to give a pool a whole new identity, and Venice rewards a clear point of view. If you are going modern, we work in straight lines, large-format materials, a tight palette, and hidden equipment, so the pool reads as architecture. The restraint is the point, and every line has to be right because there is nothing busy to hide behind.
If you are going the bohemian route, we lean into texture and color: pebble and glass finishes in sea and earth tones, natural stone, soft edges, and planting that meets the water. This look is more forgiving of an organic hand but no less deliberate, and it suits the walk-street cottages and canal-side homes that give the Westside its character.
Whichever direction you choose, we commit to it fully rather than splitting the difference into something muddy. A remodel that tries to be a little of everything ends up being nothing in particular. We help you pick a direction in the design conversation, confirm it in the renderings, and then build it with conviction.
Tying your pool construction work together
A pool is a design-build project, so pool remodeling rarely stands alone, it connects to custom pool building, updating an aging pool, a new plaster finish, pool deck installation, energy-efficient equipment, and our crew handles all of it as one accountable team. We bring the same service to Marina Del Rey pool remodeling, Pool Remodeling in Mar Vista, Pool Remodeling in Playa Del Rey, Santa Monica pool remodeling and everywhere else across the Venice area.
