October through March is ideal. Lower temperatures mean faster curing times and the pool is typically out of daily use during cooler months. Starting in October means your pool is ready for the winter swimming season. Summer renovation is possible but takes slightly longer.

If you have 3+ loose or cracked tiles, persistent water clarity issues despite chemical treatment, visible plumbing leaks, or your pool is over 12 years old with original tiles — renovation is likely more cost-effective than patching. We offer a free assessment where we inspect the pool and recommend the most cost-effective approach.
