Glendale Pool Builders remodels existing pools across Glendale and the Verdugo foothills, going beyond a refresh to reshape, resize, and re-engineer what you have for the lot it sits on. A remodel can add an attached spa, a raised wall or vanishing edge toward a downhill view, or a stepped deck that finally uses the grade. We design the remodel to your goals and the slope, and build it with one accountable crew.

How a remodel goes past a renovation
A renovation refreshes a pool; a remodel reimagines it. Where a renovation replaces finishes and tile, a remodel changes the actual shape, footprint, and structure, which on a Glendale hillside often means re-engineering how the pool sits on the grade. It is the right call when the pool you have no longer fits how you want to use a sloped backyard, or when it never made the most of the lot in the first place.
Common foothill remodels include adding an attached spa, building a raised wall or vanishing edge that opens the pool to a downhill Verdugo view, deepening or reshaping the pool, and stepping new decking and hardscape across the grade. These are structural changes on a slope, so they demand the same engineering rigor as a new build.
Because a hillside remodel touches the shell and the structure, it is worth doing once and doing right. We design the remodel around your goals and the grade, engineer the changes properly, and build them to last on the slope they sit on.
Designing a remodel that fits the grade
A good remodel starts with what is not working about the current pool and the way it sits on the lot. Maybe the shape is dated, the deck is cramped against the slope, the pool turns its back on a view it should embrace, or it lacks the spa or shallow area your family wants. We listen to all of it, then design a remodel that solves the real problems the grade and the old design created.
We design the remodel to work with the parts of the pool and the hillside structure worth keeping and to make the most of the fall of the land. A raised wall, a vanishing edge, or a stepped deck can turn a slope from a constraint into the best feature of the backyard, but only when the engineering behind it is sound.
You see the remodel in 3D and approve the design and the written price before we break into the existing pool. There are no surprises about scope or cost once the work begins on the slope.
One crew, the whole hillside remodel
A remodel can involve excavation, structural and retaining work, new plumbing and equipment, fresh finishes, and stepped new decking, which is exactly why a single design-build crew matters on a grade. We own every phase, so the new structure integrates cleanly with the old, the slope is handled as one system, and the project stays accountable from start to finish.
We sequence the remodel to keep the backyard usable as long as the slope allows and to finish efficiently once the work begins. Throughout, we keep you posted on progress and what comes next.
