Pool Renovation & Remodeling in Thibodaux, LA
Give Your Pool a Second Life
Is Your Pool Ready for a Makeover?
A pool that's 10 or 15 years old doesn't have to look or feel like it. Rough plaster that scratches your feet, faded tile, cracked coping, noisy pumps running on outdated equipment — these aren't signs you need a new pool. They're signs you need Acadia Pools.
We handle pool renovations of every scale right here in Thibodaux and across Lafourche Parish. From a targeted resurfacing to a full tear-down-and-redesign, Matt Glover brings the same hands-on approach to renovation work that he does to new construction. You'll be surprised what's possible — and how different your backyard can feel when we're done.
Many renovation clients tell us they wish they'd done it sooner. There's no reason to spend another Louisiana summer avoiding your own pool.

Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions About Pool Renovation in Thibodaux
How long does a pool renovation take in Thibodaux?
It depends on the scope of work. A plaster resurfacing can be completed in 1–2 weeks. A full renovation involving coping replacement, tile, and equipment upgrades typically takes 3–6 weeks. A complete redesign may take 8–12 weeks. Matt will give you a realistic timeline during your consultation.
How often does a gunite pool need to be resurfaced?
Most gunite pool interiors need resurfacing every 10–15 years depending on water chemistry maintenance, usage, and the type of finish. Pebble and aggregate finishes tend to last longer than standard white plaster. If you're seeing rough surfaces, staining that won't clean, or visible cracks, it's likely time.
Can you add features like a sun shelf or spa during a renovation?
Yes — renovations are a great opportunity to add features you didn't have before. We can add sun shelves, tanning ledges, spa sections, water features, and new lighting as part of a renovation project. Some additions require partial demolition and reconstruction, which we handle in-house.
How much does a pool renovation cost in Thibodaux, LA?
Costs vary widely based on scope. A basic replastering might run $8,000–$15,000. A full renovation with new coping, tile, equipment, and a feature addition could be $25,000–$60,000+. We provide itemized, transparent quotes so you know exactly what you're paying for.
Can you renovate any pool, or only gunite?
Acadia Pools specializes in gunite pool renovation. We can renovate most existing concrete and gunite pools. For fiberglass or vinyl liner pools, we evaluate on a case-by-case basis — sometimes the best option is converting to a full gunite shell.
