PoolCraft renovates older gunite pools across Bellaire and Houston. That can mean a replaster, new waterline tile and coping, a repaired or replaced deck, new equipment, or reshaping the pool entirely. One Yelp reviewer had us replaster their pool after 15 years on the original plaster.
Owners of pools that still hold water but have stopped being pleasant: rough plaster, stains, chipped tile, a deck that has started to settle, or a 1980s kidney shape that no longer matches the house.
Typical PoolCraft projects run from $38,000 to $125,000. You get a written price after the design visit, before any work starts. These are the things that move it:

“David Craft did an exceptional job designing and building our pool and then we used him again to re-plaster the pool after 15 years of the original plaster.”
Plaster that scrapes your feet, stains that come back after every acid wash, tile popping off at the waterline, or a deck that has dropped at one corner. A settling deck is worth checking quickly, because it can mean a leaking pipe underneath. One client noticed their travertine settling after nine years and we had a crew working on it straight away.
Some pools need a new skin. Others need a new idea: a sun shelf added to the shallow end, a spa built on, the deep end raised for a family that never dives. We look at what you have and tell you honestly which one you need.
It depends on the finish, water chemistry and use. One of our clients replastered after 15 years on the original plaster. If the surface is rough or stained, it is worth an inspection.
Yes. We find out why it settled first. A broken pipe or poor drainage under the deck will undo any surface repair if it is left alone.
Yes. We renovate gunite pools from any builder.
Tell us what you are picturing. David will call you back to set up a visit, look at the yard and give you a written price before any work starts.
