What Pool Remodeling Costs in Coeur d'Alene

Resurfacing is the anchor job: a standard white plaster replaster in Coeur d'Alene typically runs $5,500–$10,500, while pebble and quartz finishes run $8,500–$19,000. Everything else stacks on top of that:

JobTypical Coeur d'Alene price
Replaster (white plaster)$5,500–$10,500
Pebble or quartz finish$8,500–$19,000
Waterline tile$2,600–$8,400
Coping replacement$3,200–$9,500
Deck resurfacing$4,000–$12,500
Equipment upgrade (pump, filter, heater, automation)$3,000–$10,500
Add an attached spa$16,000–$37,000
Full remodel (finish, tile, coping, deck, equipment)$16,000–$63,000+

Idaho pricing is close to the national baseline used for these estimates. Plaster has a finite life — 10–15 years for white plaster, 15–20+ for pebble — so a resurfacing quote is often the moment to price tile, coping and equipment in the same drain.

What a remodel quote should itemize

  • Drain, prep and bond coat. How the old finish is removed or roughed up (chip-out vs. bond coat) and who handles the drain permit and disposal.
  • Finish material and warranty. Plaster, quartz, pebble or glass bead — with the manufacturer warranty and the applicator's own workmanship term in writing.
  • Tile and coping. Waterline tile, step trim, coping material and whether the expansion joint is re-caulked.
  • Equipment and plumbing. Any pump, filter, heater, light or automation swaps, plus new returns or a skimmer if the shell needs them.
  • Startup chemistry. New plaster needs a 28-day brushing and balancing routine — ask who does it and what it costs.

Questions to ask before you sign

  1. How many resurfacing jobs did you complete last year, and can I see two nearby that are five or more years old?
  2. Is the finish installed by your own crew or a subcontractor, and who holds the workmanship warranty?
  3. What happens if the drained shell shows hollow spots, rebar or structural cracks?
  4. Which items in the quote are allowances that could change once the pool is empty?
  5. How long will the pool be down, and who handles the fill and the 28-day startup?

Pool Remodeling & Resurfacing in Coeur d'Alene

9 pool remodeling companies serving Coeur d'Alene. The ranked companies average 3.4 stars across 166 customer reviews. PoolPad orders the list with a weighted score that combines customer rating and review count, so a long track record counts for more than a handful of scores.

Treasure Valley soils dig well with occasional river cobble; foothill lots add slope engineering and views worth paying for. Frost-depth plumbing is standard, and the dry summer means dust more than debris in the filters. Fiberglass leads the growth market for speed; gunite serves the foothills high end. Automatic covers and heaters are standard, and pool-plus-patio-cover combos fit the entertaining style.

Common remodel projects in Coeur d'Alene

  • Resurfacing — replastering, or upgrading to a quartz or pebble finish that lasts longer and hides chemistry marks better.
  • Tile and coping — replacing a failing waterline tile band, cracked coping or a deteriorated expansion joint.
  • Deck work — resurfacing overlays, new pavers or travertine, drainage fixes and extending the patio.
  • Features and equipment — tanning ledges, spas, LED lighting, water features, variable-speed pumps, salt systems and automation.

Vetting a Coeur d'Alene remodeling contractor

Ask for nearby resurfacing jobs that are several years old, not just fresh ones. Confirm licensing where Idaho requires it, insurance, and who holds the finish warranty. Compare at least three itemized bids against the same scope: finish, tile, coping, deck, equipment and startup. Idaho registers contractors at the state level — verify registration and insurance certificates. Pool permits and residential-code barrier requirements run through your city or county building department, and newer-subdivision HOAs typically add design review.

Coeur d'Alene Pool Remodeling Questions

How much does it cost to resurface a pool in Coeur d'Alene?

A standard white plaster replaster in Coeur d'Alene, ID typically runs $5,500–$10,500; quartz and pebble finishes run $8,500–$19,000. Waterline tile adds $2,600–$8,400 and new coping $3,200–$9,500. A full remodel that also updates the deck and equipment runs $16,000–$63,000+. Idaho pricing is close to the national baseline used for these estimates; get itemized bids from at least three of the pool remodeling companies listed here for your pool's size and condition.

How often does a pool need to be replastered?

White plaster typically lasts 10–15 years; quartz and pebble finishes 15–20 or more with balanced water. Roughing, staining that no longer cleans, exposed aggregate, hollow spots and rust marks from the rebar are the signs the finish is at the end of its life. Etching accelerates when pH and calcium hardness run low, so a consistent water-care routine is the cheapest way to delay the next resurfacing.

How long does a pool remodel take in Coeur d'Alene?

A straightforward resurfacing usually keeps the pool down for one to two weeks: drain, prep, finish, cure and fill, followed by a 28-day startup brushing routine. Adding tile, coping and deck work extends that to three to six weeks, and equipment or structural changes can push a full renovation past two months. Most crews schedule remodels for the shoulder seasons so the pool is ready when the season starts.

Should I resurface or remodel the whole pool?

Resurface if the shell, tile, coping and equipment are sound and you mostly dislike the finish. Remodel when several systems are at the end of their life at once — a drained pool is the cheapest moment to replace tile and coping, add a tanning ledge or spa, move to LED lights, or install a variable-speed pump and automation. Ask each contractor to price the resurfacing alone and the bundled options separately so you can see the marginal cost of each upgrade.

How long is the pool season in Coeur d'Alene?

The outdoor season in Coeur d'Alene runs late May through mid-September — about 4 months unheated. A full professional winterization each fall protects plumbing and equipment through the freeze, and spring openings cluster into the same few weeks. The season runs late May through mid-September with dry heat and cool nights; heaters extend both ends. Winters freeze statewide, so full winterization is standard.

Which Coeur d'Alene pool remodeling company has the highest customer rating?

Spokane Pool Covers has the highest customer rating on this Coeur d'Alene list at 5 stars across 32 reviews. Pool World has the largest review count (71 reviews at 4.4 stars). PoolPad orders the list with a weighted score that combines customer rating and review count, so a long track record counts for more than a handful of scores.

Do pool remodeling contractors in Idaho need a license?

Idaho registers contractors at the state level — verify registration and insurance certificates. Pool permits and residential-code barrier requirements run through your city or county building department, and newer-subdivision HOAs typically add design review.

What does a remodel warranty usually cover?

Plaster and pebble finishes normally carry a manufacturer material warranty (often 5–10 years, sometimes limited or prorated) plus the installer's workmanship warranty (commonly 1–5 years) covering delamination, spot etching from improper startup and bond failure. Tile, coping and equipment carry their own terms. Read what voids coverage — most exclude damage from unbalanced water — and keep your startup and water-test records.
