The Acreage
Rural · Acreage
Lots of one to 2.5 acres without a master HOA give homeowners in The Acreage freedom with their pools. A pool renovation can refresh finish and tile and update the deck in a style you choose, using the space around it.
Turn a dated Loxahatchee pool into the backyard centerpiece your acreage estate deserves.
Pool Renovation
An aging pool can drag down the entire look and feel of a Loxahatchee backyard. Cracked plaster, faded tile, outdated coping, and stained surfaces make even a sprawling estate out in The Acreage or Loxahatchee Groves feel worn and dated. Out here in western Palm Beach County, pools sit under relentless inland sun and heavy humidity nearly every month of the year, and well water rich in iron and minerals adds its own staining and chemical demand — so the wear tends to show faster than it would almost anywhere else.
Patios Pools Driveways Inc. is a licensed and insured outdoor contractor serving Loxahatchee and the surrounding Palm Beach County communities. From the common problems local pools develop to material options, our process, and permitting through Palm Beach County and Loxahatchee Groves, we help homeowners bring their pool renovation together from design to installation.
Pool Renovation
A pool renovation is about more than refreshing how things look. A properly renovated pool holds water better, stays cleaner, is easier to maintain, and is safer for everyone who uses it. Old plaster surfaces develop roughness that irritates skin and wears out pool equipment faster. Outdated tile grout cracks and allows water intrusion. Failing coping pulls away from the deck and creates tripping hazards — a real concern in Loxahatchee, where large acreage homes keep pools in near-constant use for family, guests, and entertaining.
Loxahatchee's environment adds extra demands. Pools here take intense inland UV, humidity that climbs through the summer, a heavy June-through-October rainy season, and well water chemistry loaded with iron and minerals that can stain plaster and tile — all of which stress materials year-round. The area's high water table and moist, organic soils also put hydrostatic pressure on the pool structure, so any renovation work needs to be done with materials and methods suited for that environment, not products that look good on day one and deteriorate within a couple of seasons under the South Florida sun.
Once the functional side is addressed, there is a lot of room to make the pool truly work for the home. Material selections, tile patterns, coping profiles, and surface colors all combine to create something intentional — and something that fits the ranch-style, sprawling estate, and agricultural-property character common across Loxahatchee acreage and the landscaping around them.
Pool Renovation
Renovating a pool is one of the highest-return outdoor upgrades a Loxahatchee homeowner can make. On acreage properties where the backyard is a central part of the lifestyle and the estate, a full renovation resets the clock on the pool's condition and appearance at the same time — instead of chasing constant repairs on an aging surface.
Renovation also gives homeowners complete control over the design. Whether the goal is a clean, modern look with dark plaster and frameless coping that suits a contemporary acreage home, or a resort-style finish with decorative tile and natural stone that echoes the rural-estate setting, a renovation is the chance to make those choices from scratch.
A professionally executed pool renovation in Loxahatchee can help:
Renovation Options
Every pool is different, and no two renovation projects in Loxahatchee look exactly the same. Patios Pools Driveways Inc. works with homeowners to find the right combination of materials based on their budget, aesthetic preferences, and how the pool is used.
Pool plaster resurfacing replaces a worn, stained, or rough interior with a fresh finish that improves both the pool's appearance and swimming comfort. We use Florida Stucco Gem Finishes, a durable pool plaster alternative available in different aggregate colors that influence the final appearance of the water—from bright, light blue to deeper blue and blue-green tones that read well under the intense inland light in Loxahatchee. Gem Finishes are designed to resist staining and spot etching better than traditional pool plaster—an advantage where iron-rich well water is common—while providing a slip-resistant, non-abrasive surface. During your renovation, we can help you select a finish and water color that complements your tile, coping, pool deck, and overall backyard design.
Pool tile serves both a decorative and functional purpose. The waterline tile protects the area most exposed to chemical fluctuation, mineral-heavy well water, and the strong Loxahatchee sun, while also defining the visual style of the pool. Options range from classic ceramic to glass, stone, and mosaic tile — each with different textures, colors, and price points to suit the project and the look of the home.
Coping is the cap that transitions from the pool shell to the surrounding deck, and it has a significant effect on the overall finished look. Travertine, concrete, and brick coping options each create a different feel — from contemporary and minimal to traditional and warm — and travertine in particular stays cooler underfoot in the Loxahatchee heat. Coping also affects safety and drainage during the rainy season, which matters even more on acreage lots with a high water table, so material choice matters beyond appearance.
The combination of surface color, tile band, and coping material creates a design that is greater than the sum of its parts. Patios Pools Driveways Inc. helps Loxahatchee homeowners see how these elements work together before committing, and coordinates the pool renovation with any surrounding deck or patio work to ensure a unified result.
Pool Renovation
Many Loxahatchee homeowners reach a point where the rest of the property has been updated — the patio is new, the landscaping is refreshed, the outdoor kitchen is in — but the pool looks like it belongs to a different decade. The surface is dull, the tile is stained, and the pool coping has gaps or chips that no amount of cleaning can fix.
That mismatch is one of the most common reasons homeowners here start looking into pool renovation. The structure of the pool is still sound, but the surfaces and finishes have run their course under years of intense inland sun, mineral-rich well water, and heavy use. A renovation addresses those issues at the surface level, where pool resurfacing does most of the work, without the cost or disruption of a full replacement. Once complete, the pool reads as new — and so does the outdoor space surrounding it.
Pool automation allows homeowners to control essential pool functions—such as pumps, lighting, heaters, water features, and cleaning schedules—from a smartphone, tablet, or centralized control panel. Adding a modern pool automation system during a Loxahatchee renovation can make daily maintenance easier, improve energy efficiency against year-round pump run times, and give you more control over how and when your pool operates—especially useful on a large acreage property with a private well and irrigation.
A saltwater pool system uses a salt chlorine generator to produce chlorine automatically, helping maintain cleaner, more consistent water with less reliance on traditional chlorine products. Converting to a saltwater pool during renovation can provide a more comfortable swimming experience for Loxahatchee's long swim season, reduce strong chlorine odors, and simplify ongoing pool care when the system is properly installed and maintained alongside sound well water treatment.
A pool renovation can help solve problems like:
Renovation Quality
A beautiful pool surface that doesn't hold up to Loxahatchee conditions is not a good investment. The renovation work Patios Pools Driveways Inc. does is designed to perform as well as it looks — through the heat of a Palm Beach County summer, through the heavy rain season and high water table, and through the everyday chemical demands of a pool fed by mineral-rich well water and used nearly all year.
We focus on:
Outdoor Living
A pool renovation does not exist in isolation. The materials and finishes chosen for the pool should coordinate with everything surrounding it — the deck, the patio, the walkways, and any other outdoor features on the property. Patios Pools Driveways Inc. works across all of those areas throughout Loxahatchee, including the paver pool deck that frames the water, which means renovation projects can be designed to feel connected rather than piecemeal.
If you are planning a larger outdoor upgrade, your pool renovation can be designed to complement:

A renovation covers everything from the pool shell outward: new plaster or Florida Gem interior, replacement waterline tile, new coping at the pool edge, and updated decking. Many Palm Beach County projects, Loxahatchee included, also add features such as a sun shelf, water features, an automation system, or a switch to saltwater chlorination.
Costs depend on scope rather than address — a pool renovation in Loxahatchee is priced the same way as anywhere else in Palm Beach County. Basic resurfacing starts at a few thousand dollars; full renovations including tile, coping, deck work, and added features go considerably higher. Patios Pools Driveways Inc. offers free in-person estimates at no obligation.
Renovated pools in Loxahatchee are finished with Florida Stucco Gem Finishes, whose colored aggregate improves stain resistance and longevity compared with a plain interior. Color is where the look is decided: a darker Gem blend produces the lagoon-like appearance common on Palm Beach County pools, while a lighter blend keeps the surface bright and classic.
Duration scales with scope rather than address. In Loxahatchee and across the rest of Palm Beach County, a resurfacing-only project typically wraps in a few days, while a full renovation with new tile, coping, deck work, and features usually spans several weeks. The exact schedule is set once the scope is confirmed at your free estimate.
Rough or flaking plaster, stubborn staining, cracked and missing waterline tile, shifted or deteriorating coping, an outdated finish, uneven or crumbling decking, and chronic water chemistry issues are the standard signals in Loxahatchee. For pools across Palm Beach County, several of these usually appear together as the interior surface reaches the end of its life.
Yes — this is the ideal time to do it. A sun shelf, sheer descent, bubblers, and deck jets are all designed into a Loxahatchee renovation and installed in sequence with the resurfacing, waterline tile, and coping. Coordinating them together avoids the mismatched look of features added later, a lesson learned on Palm Beach County pools retrofitted piecemeal.
Travertine leads the list for Loxahatchee pool coping. The stone stays cooler under the Palm Beach County sun, offers natural slip resistance at the exact spot where people climb in and out, and coordinates with nearly any interior finish or deck material. Poured concrete, brick, and paver coping are the other common options.
Yes. Coordinating the two is strongly recommended for Loxahatchee pools, with the deck completed before the interior finish goes in. Deck demolition and installation produce debris that can damage new plaster or pebble, so finishing the deck first eliminates the risk and any resulting re-work — the standard order on Palm Beach County renovations.
It can. Converting to saltwater is a common addition to Loxahatchee renovations, as it is across Palm Beach County. A salt chlorine generator takes over from manual chlorine dosing, which keeps water chemistry steadier, cuts back the chemical smell, and makes the water feel more comfortable — provided the system is installed correctly.
