Pool Builders and Pool Remodeling in Gilbert, AZ

Gilbert grew fast, and a lot of its pools went in at the same time. If you bought in Val Vista Lakes, Seville, Morrison Ranch or Power Ranch, there is a good chance your pool came with the house and has not been touched since. Plaster wears. Tile lines scale over. Decking cracks and gets too hot to stand on.

Arrowhead Deck and Pools builds new pools and remodels existing ones across Gilbert. We handle the design, the permits, the build and the inspections, so the pool you pay for is the pool you actually own.

What We Do in Gilbert

Modern swimming pool with light-colored stone decking, lounge chairs, and desert landscaping against a backdrop of mountains.

New pool design and construction

Full design and build on new lots and established ones. We work within Gilbert's permitting process and around the setbacks and community requirements that come with a master-planned neighborhood.

Pool remodeling and reshaping

The most common job we do in Gilbert. A twenty-year-old builder pool can be reshaped, retiled and brought up to current equipment without starting over.

Pool resurfacing and replaster

Plaster, pebble and quartz finishes. If the surface is rough underfoot, staining, or losing water, resurfacing is usually the fix rather than a full remodel.

Decking, concrete flatwork, and pavers

Cool decking, concrete, travertine-style finishes and pavers. Gilbert decks take full afternoon sun, so surface temperature matters as much as the look.

Water features, fire features, lighting, and automation

Modern equipment and controls, retrofitted to an existing pool or designed into a new one.

Remodeling a Builder-Grade Pool in Gilbert

Most of the pools we remodel in Gilbert were put in by the home builder as part of the original package. They were built to a price, which usually shows up in three places: a plain rectangular shape, basic white plaster, and a narrow concrete surround with nowhere to sit.

 All three are fixable without excavating the whole yard. Reshaping the step and bench, replastering in pebble or quartz, and widening the deck changes how the backyard works without changing where the pool sits. That keeps the cost closer to a resurfacing job than a rebuild. Use the calculator to estimate your project cost.

If your pool is still holding water and the shell is sound, say so when you call. It usually means more of your budget goes into the finish and the deck rather than into demolition.

Neighborhoods We Work In

We build and remodel throughout Gilbert, including Val Vista Lakes, Seville, Agritopia, Morrison Ranch, Power Ranch and Layton Lakes.

Permits and Community Approvals

Gilbert requires permits for pool construction and for most structural deck work, and many of the communities above have their own architectural review on top of that. We pull the permits and handle the inspections, and we work to whatever your community’s review process asks for before visible work starts.

Gilbert FAQs

Run your hand along the wall below the waterline. If it feels like sandpaper, or you can see the grey shell showing through, the plaster is at the end of its life. Staining that will not brush off and a steady drop in water level are the other two signs. We will tell you if it can wait another season.

Usually, yes. Resurfacing, retiling and new coping stay inside the pool shell. Reshaping a step or bench is a small excavation. It is the deck replacement that takes up space, and we can stage that separately if you would rather do it in two phases.

In most Gilbert communities, yes, if the work changes anything visible from outside your lot or involves new hardscape. Interior work like resurfacing generally does not. Tell us your community at the estimate and we will build the approval step into the schedule rather than running into it later.
