10 Ways to Improve Your Swimming Pool

by Kevin Smith Author

If you've wanted more out of your swimming pool, or just wish it had more a visual impact, don't worry. There are plenty of contractors who work on existing backyard pools in Los Alamitos. There are plenty of ways to upgrade your pool, whether it's too small, too dull, or just looks outdated. Here are the top 10 ways to improve your existing pool.

  1. Expand - Expanding a swimming pool is easier than you think, and it gives you the opportunity to make any decorative pool roomy enough for swimming laps and hosting parties.
  2. Refinish the Liner - Some pool liners, including vinyl, degrade over time. A new lining gives you the chance to refresh the appearance of your pool with one of 2 stylish choices: rich blue that makes the water shimmer or crisp gray to make the pool look elegant.
  3. Add a Fun Feature - Diving boards, slides, and fountains make dull, unused pools more attractive again. No matter your age, you'll love spending time in a pool that revolves around a fun feature.
  4. Add Lighting - Pool lighting makes a huge difference, but the standard lighting scheme involves a small amount of plain white or yellow lights under the water. A colorful and dynamic lighting scheme will make your pool shimmer like a chic hotel pool.
  5. Improve the Deck - The problem with your pool might actually be its surroundings. Expand the deck and add room for tanning, entertaining, or a cabana. 
  6. Keep It Clean - Your pool's filtration system might not be doing its job anymore. An inefficient filter will leave your pool water filthy and the walls grimy. You may need to upgrade the filtration system for a more pleasant swim.
  7. Add a Touch of Nature - Natural features like rock walls and waterfalls make any swimming pool look straight out of an exotic resort. Add exotic plant life to bring the wildlife theme together.
  8. Modernize It - Embrace a modern pool design and remove unnecessary clutter from your pool, including busy pool tile or decking. You can also pare down its shape into a clean, rectangular surface.
  9. Replace Chlorine with Salt - Are you sick of the dry, brittle feeling that chlorine leaves on your skin and hair? Saltwater pools are more natural and safer than chlorine, with the same level of water protection.
  10. Add a Tanning Ledge - Tanning ledges give you the best of your pool and your deck in one simple feature. Tanning ledges are attractive spots to entertain, relax with a cocktail, and read.

These are just some of the top ideas for improving backyard pools in Los Alamitos. An experienced pool installation contractor can make your old or dull pool look extraordinary at a great price.
