Renovations and Remodels

Update Your Pool Without Starting Over

If your pool is showing signs of wear, outdated equipment, or a tired design, a full replacement is not always the answer. Phillips Poolscapes provides complete renovation and remodel services that restore, modernize, and improve existing pools for homeowners across Northeast Ohio. Whether you need a vinyl liner replacement, updated coping and decking, or a full equipment overhaul, our team evaluates your current setup and builds a plan that brings your pool back to life.


Every renovation project is managed personally by Mike Phillips, with the same quality standards and hands on involvement that define our new pool builds. We work with homeowners who want to protect their existing investment while upgrading the look, function, and efficiency of their pool.



Pool renovations are ideal for homeowners with aging vinyl liners, cracked or dated decking, inefficient pumps and heaters, or anyone looking to update their backyard without the cost or timeline of a brand new pool installation.
