Arcadia’s Pool Renovation Specialists
Bringing Mid-Century Backyards Up to Today’s Standards
Real Feedback from Homeowners We’ve Worked With
- Salten pools are awesome! Let me tell you why. We had a handful of companies come to our home when we realized the pool was not refilling itself although … More we had the equipment to do it. Shannon, Carlos and Justin came out and knew exactly what needed to be done to resolve the issue and at a reasonable price. They were also very neat and clean when digging, removing pavers to replace piping. Other pool companies were only giving us short term solutions and at outrageous prices. The Salten team are the one’s to call for all your pool needs.
- We’ve had a great experience with Salten Pools for our pool maintenance. We have been using them a little over a year and they have kept our pool clean … More and well maintained year round. Weekly maintenance has kept our pool clean and clear and have had no issues with our service. Communication with the company has been great. We highly recommend Salten Pools for anyone looking for pool maintenance and repair.
- I cannot say enough good things about Salten Pools! Their technician was awesome. After the monsoon my pool was a full of debris and started to turn green. … More They were able to clean it up and fix my filter. They were on time for the appointment and completed the job quickly while still getting everything done. I highly recommend Salten Pools for anyone in need of pool cleaning services!
Renovation Work We Take On Throughout the Neighborhood
Many pools in this part of Phoenix went in alongside the original ranch homes decades ago. Salten Pools renovates these older shells, from plaster to equipment, without losing the character that fits the surrounding streets.
Plaster and Surface Replacement
We replace worn original plaster with pebble or quartz finishes built to outlast standard-grade surfaces by years.
Tile and Waterline Repair
Mineral buildup and cracked waterline tile get reset or replaced, with the underlying scaling addressed at the source.
Deck Reconstruction
Settled or cracked original concrete decking gets repaired or replaced, often converted to travertine or stamped concrete.
Equipment Replacement
Single-speed pumps and older gas heaters get swapped for efficient systems built for full-summer use.
Shape and Depth Adjustments
We reshape dated rectangular layouts, add sun shelves, or adjust depth to suit how a family uses the space today.
The Payoff of Renovating an Older Pool
An aging pool doesn’t need to be replaced to look and function like new. Most of the time, the original shell has held up better than the surface finish ever did.
The Shell Usually Outlasts the Finish
Concrete shells from the mid-century building boom were poured thick and have generally held up structurally even as surface finishes failed.
Matches a Home That’s Already Been Updated
If the rest of the house has been renovated, a remodel keeps the backyard from being the one part of the property that still looks original.
Takes Advantage of Larger Lots
Oversized lots leave room to add a sun shelf, expand a deck, or reconfigure a water feature without hitting setback limits.
Avoids the Cost of a Full Teardown
Resurfacing, retiling, and updating equipment typically solves the real problem for a fraction of what demolition and rebuilding would cost.
Brings Efficiency to an Older System
Variable-speed pumps and modern heaters reduce what it costs to keep a decades-old pool running through a full Arizona summer.
Decades of Older-Pool Know-How
We’ve opened up enough original shells in this neighborhood to know what decades-old plumbing and plaster typically look like once work begins.
Renovations Matched to Your Property
Every project gets designed around the specific age and condition of that pool, not a standard package applied across different homes.
One Team, Start to Finish
From a straightforward resurfacing job to a complete reshape with new equipment, we manage the entire scope under one contract.
Built to Handle What’s Underneath
Our crews carry the experience to adjust the plan when older plumbing or settled decking shows up mid-project, without treating it as a surprise.
Our Pool Remodeling Process, Step by Step
1. Assessment and History Review
We evaluate the shell, plaster, tile, and equipment, and ask about the pool’s age and any prior repairs before scoping the job.
2. Design and Planning
We put together a scope that addresses the pool’s real condition, whether that’s a finish-only update or a structural overhaul.
3. Execution and Revitalization
Demolition, repair, and finish work happen in sequence, with the crew ready to adjust if older infrastructure reveals more issues.
4. Final Inspection
We walk the finished project together, confirm the equipment runs correctly, and balance the water for the new surface.
Make Your Pool Fit the Home You’ve Built
Treating a 60-Year-Old Shell Like It’s Brand New
