Swimming pool renovation expert Jim Chandler of Sacramento, CA shows homeowners how to remodel their old pools and put the sparkle back in the water! Homeowners are renovating their older gunite pools with pebble type finishes remodeling with new tile, concrete decking and replacing old inefficient energy wasting pool equipment. Innovations in technology have created “greener” energy saving pool pumps, controls, cleaners and chemical feeders. With a new variable speed pool pump, you can save thousands of dollars in electrical usage in just a few years.
Jim Chandler Pools offers the full Pentair line of pool equipment when upgrading old inefficient pool pumps, controls and filters . “Pentair is really the top of the line for pool equipment” he says. “I can perform an energy audit and show my customers how to they save thousands of dollars on their electric bill, just by installing the IntelliFlo Variable Speed Pump.” “Also, Pentair has automation, lighting and chemical controls, You can even have your iPhone operate your swimming pool, It’s amazing!
Jim says “A well constructed gunited swimming pool really should last a lifetime.”
“However, the pool finish if it’s a plaster type will usually last about 15 years.” He said, “I have some pools I’ve built 30 years ago and still looking great.” Water chemistry and maintenance play a major part in the longevity of your in ground gunite pool.
One of my customers in Roseville, CA recently called me to renovate his 20 year old Jim Chandler Pool. We re- finished his plaster swimming pool in Blue Granite Pebble Sheen finish, installed new tile and upgraded pool equipment. His original concrete decking was actually still looking great. Instead of the typical booster pump cleaner I suggested the new robotic cleaner which uses less electricity and cleans his pool in about an hour.
The completed swimming pool renovation looked beautiful and new again. The Pentair equipment manufactures representative said that “it’s amazing Jim, that your customer let you back in his yard after 20 years. That is a testament to your integrity as a pool builder great job!”
“Swimming pool renovation is fairly quick and easy process” Jim says. ” Compared to building a new pool it only takes about 2 weeks to transform your old tired looking pool into a beautiful sparkling new pool again!”
Here is what my Roseville, CA swimming pool customer said about the renovation of his 20 year old Jim Chandler Pool.

Jim it’s been 6 months since the completion of the refurbishment of my pool and I can say I’m extremely satisfied with the results. Your guidance and knowledge were paramount in the selections I made at the time, and my satisfaction continues to grow each and every day. The Pebble Sheen finish and new tile are absolutely beautiful as per my wife. The new technology is most paramount to me, from the Pentair Salt and Technology System to the Pentair Prowler Robotic In-ground Pool Cleaner.
The Pentair Prowler Robotic In-ground Cleaner was a revelation to me and now I can tell you a very welcome improvement. The system is very user friendly takes fifteen minutes a week to set up and break down and clean. The thoroughness of the cleaning system is excellent and is completely finished within 1hr. This equipment along with the other Pentair systems is absolutely fantastic.
