Irving Pool Builders Blog

Every post here answers a question Irving property owners actually ask before they hire anyone — what work costs, which materials are worth the upcharge, how long a job really takes, and the shortcuts that look fine for two years and then do not.

The writing comes from the same people doing the work in Irving, TX and the Las Colinas and mid-cities area, which is why the numbers are specific and the advice sometimes tells you not to spend money.

Skip the articles and go to the page for what you need — each one covers pricing, scope and how to start:

• Gunite & Shotcrete Pool Construction in Irving — Gunite pool construction is how you get a pool in the exact shape your yard wants, instead of a shape somebody in a factory picked out a decade ago. Concrete gets shot through a hose against a tied steel cage, so the finished shell is monolithic: no panels, no seams, nowhere for water to find a way out.
• Fiberglass Pool Installation in Irving — Fiberglass pool installation is the fast lane: a shell molded at a factory, trucked in, and set with a crane, so a straightforward job goes from bare dirt to swimming in two or three weeks. If your calendar is the constraint rather than your imagination, that's a strong argument and we'll make it for you.
• Vinyl Liner Pools & Liner Replacement in Irving — Vinyl liner replacement is a two to four day job, and if your pattern has faded to a flat pale wash or the waterline material cracks when you press a thumbnail into it, you're already due. Vinyl liner pools are a small minority in Irving, which means most owners of one have a hard time finding a company that still stocks the parts.
• Pool Remodeling & Renovation in Irving — Pool remodeling is for the jobs that change the shape of the thing rather than just the color: an attached spa with a spillover, a tanning ledge cut into the shallow end, a deep end filled in because 1978 believed in diving boards. South Irving is full of pools poured in the 1970s that are structurally sound and stylistically frozen, and that's exactly the pool this page is about.
• Pool Resurfacing & Replastering in Irving — Pool resurfacing is due when the floor stops feeling smooth and starts feeling like a driveway, and somebody climbs out of the shallow end with a scraped toe. That's the cream coat gone and the plaster body exposed to the water, and Irving's hard fill water isn't gentle with what happens next.
