You’re in trouble when the creature from the black lagoon shows up and asks if he can use your pool for the summer. As pools age they require extra attention, and here are some basic pool renovation tips for replacing the swamp-like and dated qualities with features that are more appealing and stylish.

- Resurface the pool. As concrete ages, it cracks and chips. Over time, these flaws multiply and can cause structural failures.
- Add water features. Waterfalls and fountains add a touch of elegance and class while also giving your pool a dramatic splash of sound.
- Install a hot tub. Sometimes it’s nice to just sit back and relax next to your pool instead of doing laps and playing Marco Polo.
- Upgrade your tile. New tile can give your pool a more refined look that will dramatically improve the way your pool is framed.
- Add a deck and barbecue. Installing a stained concrete deck and barbecue area are great ways to encourage people to kick back and relax during your next pool party.
- Enlighten yourself. Adding halogen or fiber optic lighting can give your pool an incredible glow to enjoy in the evening hours.
- Go high tech. Make clean-up a breeze by installing an automatic cleaning system so that you never have to pull out the scrub brushes and chemicals ever again.
