Pool Remodeling in Fort Worth, TX
Fort Worth is home base for Aqua MD. From our office on Martin Street we remodel and build pools across the city, from the historic backyards of Westover Hills and Ridglea to newer construction on the west and south sides. Being based here means Fort Worth projects get the shortest drive and fastest response on the schedule.
What we see on Fort Worth pools
- Historic Fort Worth pools often have hand-formed shells and original plumbing — we evaluate the shell and lines before recommending a finish so you are not putting new pebble over an old problem.
- West Fort Worth lots often roll with natural slope and exposed rock, which gives us the chance to design vertical interest instead of fighting the terrain — raised spas, natural stone weeping walls, and sheer descents become the focal points of the backyard, while terraced decking and stacked-stone retaining walls turn the grade changes into usable, beautiful spaces rather than ordinary flat concrete pads.
- We handle both residential remodels and commercial pool work in the Fort Worth area, including HOA and small-property pools.

Pool remodeling, replastering & pebble finishes in Fort Worth
Fort Worth pool replastering & resurfacing
If your interior feels like sandpaper, holds stains that will not brush out, or shows gray patches where the plaster has worn thin, it is time to resurface. Our Fort Worth crews chip out the failing surface, repair the shell and bond beam, then finish with plaster, quartz, or mini pebble and handle the startup chemistry themselves so the new interior cures correctly in our hard water.
PebbleTec & mini pebble interiors
Mini pebble is our signature finish in Fort Worth. Colors like Tahoe Blue, Majestic Blue, Barbados Blue, and Aqua Blue give real depth to the water and stand up to Texas sun and chemistry far better than white plaster. We bring physical samples to your backyard so you can see the color in your own light before you commit.
Travertine coping, waterline tile & decking
New travertine coping and waterline tile change the look of a Fort Worth pool more than any other single upgrade, and travertine stays cooler underfoot than the broom-finish concrete on most older decks. We rebuild decks with travertine, pavers, or an overlay and detail the joints for the clay soil movement we see across Tarrant County.
Equipment upgrades & smart automation
While the pool is drained we upgrade equipment pads to variable-speed Pentair pumps, cartridge filtration, gas heaters or heat pumps, LED color lighting, and IntelliCenter automation you run from your phone. Fort Worth homeowners usually see the pump upgrade pay for itself in energy savings within a few seasons.

FAQ
Pool remodeling questions from Fort Worth homeowners
Straight answers on replastering cost, mini pebble versus plaster, travertine coping, timelines, and what Fort Worth's water and soil mean for your new finish.
How much does it cost to replaster a pool in Fort Worth, TX?
Replastering cost in Fort Worth depends on the surface area of the shell, the finish you choose, and whether tile, coping, or plumbing repairs are included. Standard white plaster is the least expensive option, quartz sits in the middle, and mini pebble or PebbleTec interiors cost more up front but last significantly longer. Aqua MD gives Fort Worth homeowners a free, written estimate that itemizes surface prep, the interior finish, tile, coping, and startup so you can see exactly what drives the number.
Is mini pebble better than standard plaster for a Texas pool?
For most North Texas pools, yes. Mini pebble and PebbleTec aggregate interiors resist the staining, etching, and rough spots that show up early on white plaster in our hard, mineral-heavy water, and they hold water color for well over a decade with normal maintenance. Standard plaster is the lowest-cost choice and still a valid option on a tight budget, but it typically needs to be redone years sooner, so the pebble finish is usually the better long-term value.
How long does a pool remodel take in Fort Worth?
A straightforward resurfacing in Fort Worth normally takes 7 to 10 working days from drain to refill. A full remodel with new waterline tile, travertine coping, and decking runs about 3 to 6 weeks, and adding an outdoor kitchen or covered structure is scheduled as its own phase. Rain and cold snaps are the usual reason a plaster or concrete day moves, so we build a buffer into the schedule and keep you posted.
Why is travertine coping so popular around DFW pools?
Travertine stays noticeably cooler underfoot than broom-finished concrete in a Texas summer, it has natural slip resistance when wet, and its warm tones hide dust and hard-water spotting better than painted or stained concrete. We set travertine coping and decking on a properly prepared base with the right joint spacing so it handles the seasonal movement of our clay soils. It is one of the fastest ways to make an older pool look brand new.
Which pool equipment upgrades are worth it during a remodel?
The three that pay off most are a variable-speed pump, LED color lighting, and Pentair IntelliCenter automation so you can run pumps, heaters, lights, and water features from your phone. A gas heater or heat pump is worth adding if you want to swim from spring into late fall. Because the pool is already drained and the equipment pad is open during a remodel, this is the cheapest time to make those changes.
What should Fort Worth pool owners know about local water and soil?
Fort Worth sits on expansive clay soil and is served by hard, mineral-rich water, and both matter to a remodel. We check the bond beam, deck joints, and drainage before any new finish goes on so movement does not telegraph through fresh plaster or coping, and we walk you through startup chemistry that prevents the scale line and mottling that hard water can leave on a brand-new interior. Keeping calcium and pH in range after startup is the single biggest factor in how long your new surface lasts.
