If you’re planning a pool project in Danville, whether it’s a new build, a complete renovation, or resurfacing an older pool, Adams Pool Solutions can walk you through what’s involved and how the process works. The company has worked in the San Ramon Valley for decades, and the team knows how local permitting, HOA architectural review processes, and site constraints shape what’s possible for your property.
Most of the work here is residential: custom pool construction, backyard upgrades, equipment modernization, and resurfacing projects for pools built in the 1970s through 1990s that have reached the end of their original lifespan. The company also handles commercial and HOA projects where scheduling, compliance, and durability matter. Adams Pool Solutions coordinates the permitting process end-to-end. You’ll pay permit fees directly to the Town of Danville, but the team handles plan submission, reviews, approvals, and inspection coordination so you don’t have to track down every step.

Adams Pool Solutions works with homeowners, property managers, and commercial clients throughout Danville and the surrounding area. Residential services include custom pool construction, remodeling projects that address equipment failures or outdated finishes, and resurfacing work for pools that need a fresh interior but don’t require structural changes. The company also serves HOA communities, multi-family properties, schools, and hotels where heavier use and compliance requirements come into play.
Thirty plus years as a swimming pool remodeling contractor has taught us a few things about pool construction. We’ve gone from simple replasters to complete pool replacement and everything in between.
In addition to our impressive body of remodel work, Adams Pool Solutions has been quietly constructing new pools for very discerning clients who want the customization and special touch to help make their vision of paradise come to life.
Commercial work doesn’t always elicit praise for its eye-popping appeal like a tropical backyard paradise but it is a good indicator of the resources a company can bring to a project.
Preparation of the interior pool surface is critical to the long term adhesion of the new interior surface. Over the years, we have determined that removal of the surface material is the most effective process.
Many pools in Danville were built between the 1970s and 1990s, and by now, a lot of them are showing their age. If your pool is losing water, has visible cracks, or the equipment keeps breaking down, you’re probably weighing whether to resurface or do a more complete renovation. The right answer depends on what’s happening under the surface.
Resurfacing makes sense when the shell is solid, the plumbing and electrical are in good shape, and you just need a fresh interior finish. But if there are structural cracks, failing plumbing, outdated electrical, or sloppy prior repairs, resurfacing alone won’t fix the underlying problems. That’s where a full evaluation matters. The team inspects the shell, checks the plumbing and electrical systems, and assesses any past work so you can make an informed decision before you commit to finishes or equipment upgrades.
Surface prep plays a big role in how long your new finish lasts. If the old material isn’t removed cleanly, or if there’s damage underneath that wasn’t addressed, the new surface won’t bond properly. Adams Pool Solutions handles that prep work carefully, whether it’s hydroblasting for resurfacing or structural repairs before new construction begins. Hydroblasting uses high-pressure water to strip away the old plaster or pebble finish without damaging the shell underneath—it’s a cleaner, more controlled method than older chipping techniques.
When you’re ready to select finishes, you’ll have options. Pool interior finishes range from traditional white plaster to colored plaster, pebble finishes, and exposed aggregate—each with different durability and aesthetic characteristics. Tile and coping define the waterline and deck edge, and upgrading them can completely change how the pool looks. Equipment upgrades like variable-speed pumps, LED lighting, or automation systems can cut your operating costs and make the pool easier to manage.
Adams Pool Solutions also works with HOA boards, property managers, and commercial facility operators who need pool renovation or construction services for community pools, apartment complexes, schools, hotels, and other high-use environments. These inground pool projects come with different requirements: tighter schedules, higher durability standards, and coordination with boards or management companies. The company handles that coordination, including compliance considerations and project timelines that minimize downtime for residents or guests.

Here’s what to expect with permits in Danville, because this comes up in nearly every project conversation.
What Permits Are Required?
New pool construction and most major pool remodels in Danville require permits through the Town of Danville Permit Center. Depending on your project scope, you may also need permits for plumbing, electrical work, grading, or structural changes. Zoning review is part of the overall process. Adams Pool Solutions coordinates the permitting workflow and inspection scheduling as part of the project, while you pay permit fees directly to the Town.
Where to Apply
Pool permits are handled through the Town of Danville Permit Center:
Address: 500 La Gonda Way, Danville, CA 94526
Phone: 925-314-3330
Permit Center: https://www.danville.ca.gov/155/Permit-Center
Online Instructions: https://www.danville.ca.gov/484/Online-Permits-Instructions
What the Process Looks Like
The general flow is: submit plans, plan review by the Town, permit issued, construction begins, inspections at key phases, and final approval. What you’ll typically submit includes a site plan showing pool placement and setbacks, equipment specifications for pumps, heaters, filters, and automation, barrier and fence details to meet safety requirements, and grading notes if there’s significant earth movement.
How Long It Takes
Permitting timelines vary based on project complexity, plan completeness, and current review volume at the Town. A realistic planning assumption is that permitting can take several weeks. If your community has HOA architectural review requirements, that approval process often needs to happen before plans are submitted to the Town, which adds time. If you want to swim by summer, start planning early.
If you have questions about permitting or want to discuss your project timeline, reach out to schedule a consultation.
California’s Title 24 energy standards are scheduled to update on January 1, 2026. If your project involves adding or changing pool or spa heating systems, or upgrading major equipment, Title 24 will influence equipment selection and compliance requirements. Planning early helps clarify what’s required for your timeline and design, especially if you’re close to starting a project and want to understand your options before permit submittal.
For a detailed breakdown of what’s changing and how it affects pool projects, see the guide to California Title 24 pool construction requirements. If you’re considering equipment upgrades as part of a renovation, that page outlines what’s available and how different systems compare.
Greenbrook is an HOA-governed community. If you’re in Greenbrook, confirm architectural requirements before work begins. Be prepared for HOA coordination around visible exterior changes, truck access, and staging, especially if your property shares amenities or common areas.
Parts of the Danville area have expansive clay soils, which can contribute to cracking and movement in pool shells over time. If your pool is older and you’re seeing cracks, that soil movement might be part of the story. Mature landscaping and tree debris are common here as well, which means leaf litter, pollen, and organic material end up in the pool and affect chemistry and filtration.
Summer heat in Danville drives evaporation and puts stress on water chemistry, while cool evenings mean heater sizing matters if you want to extend the swim season. When evaluating a pool project, the team accounts for these local factors and how they affect surface prep, equipment selection, and long-term durability.
If your pool was built in the 1970s, 1980s, or 1990s, you’re likely at a point where resurfacing alone might not be enough. Older pools often have issues that go beyond the finish: failing plumbing, outdated electrical systems, structural cracks from soil movement, a broken water feature, or prior repairs done poorly that are now causing new problems.
Before you select finishes or commit to equipment upgrades, evaluate the pool shell and systems. If the underlying structure isn’t sound, a new surface won’t last as long as it should. Surface prep matters here, because if the old material isn’t removed cleanly or if damage underneath isn’t addressed, the new finish won’t bond properly and you’ll be back to square one in a few years.

Tony DiTommasoTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had a pool built about 14 years ago. It was Adams Pools that did the plaster work. Seemed natural to call them for one of our estimates to have our pool re-plastered. After speaking with TJ, who we've worked with in the past, we made the decision to have our work done by Adams. Each person we spoke with, Jason our project manager, Elizabeth in the office, and the team that did the work were outstanding. No complaints at all. While Adams was a tiny bit more expensive then some of the quotes we'd gotten, doing business with them was stress free, and the workmanship seems excellent. TJ gave us some opinions on several other companies to help with the start up (after plastering) and clean up the old tile. The whole project was great, the pool looks new after all this time. There is something to be said for dealing with a large company that's been in the business for decades. Our only hope is we get another 14 years this time around! Susan RussellTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Adams Pool Solutions owners and employees are very nice people! Their customer service is exceptional. They will come back and fix anything after the initial service. They even come out just to walk me through the equipment and other things they are not obligated to do. I do not think any of the other pool companies I consulted before I hired Adams would do the same. I hired them based on the job they did for the HOA pool. Their bid was half of the other companies, and they have been in business for 70 years. That alone says it all. I am very happy with my big, beautiful blue pool! I bought a home and the pool was a mess. Adams added the wet deck and turned it into a saltwater pool. I highly recommend them! Anyone who has the patience to deal with me politely is a rock star!! shanda JamTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Adams Pool Solutions Acid Wash and Polish my pool plaster. From start to finish it was a very professional experience. Joel came to my house and was hands on every step of the way to make sure things went smoothly and they did. The quality was exceptional and the people were amazing and professional. Elaine and Joel communication was exceptional. Greg and Cleiber did an absolutely amazing and beautiful job! Thank you for fulfilling the terms of warranty agreement related to my pool. Very highly recommend! Jennifer WildeTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Adams Pool Solution fixed my scratched and etched pool surface to perfection! Elaine in the office was friendly and coordinated everything for me. Greg came out and did the work. He polished the whole pool and did an acid wash. He was nice and very professional! My pool looks brand new!! Trisha BricknerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had our swimming pool replastered by Adams pools, we decided to go with the pebble tech, we also added mosaics to our pool and spa. We absolutely love it. Ron was our salesman and he answered every one of our questions and was very helpful all the way through the process. The crew working on our pool were always here and on time and very professional. Elaine also worked with us, we had excellent customer service from her. Everyone working with Adam's pool did an excellent job. We highly recommend Adam's pool. Our pool is absolutely beautiful and we are so happy that we used Adams pools. We would definitely use them again.

HIn many Danville neighborhoods, HOA architectural review can be required for exterior-visible projects like pools, fences, equipment placement, hardscape, and landscaping changes. If your community has an Architectural Review Committee (ARC) or architectural change application process, approval often needs to happen before construction begins and may be required before permit submittal.

Maybe, depending on what you’re changing. Some renovations that involve major equipment or heating decisions may have different compliance implications after the January 1, 2026 Title 24 update. The best move is to talk through your scope early so you can plan permit timing and equipment choices with fewer surprises. Contact Adams Pool Solutions to discuss your project, or review the Title 24 guide.
It depends on the pool’s condition. Many older pools can be resurfaced successfully, but if there are structural cracks, failing plumbing, outdated electrical, or poor prior repairs, a more complete renovation may be the better long-term investment. Adams Pool Solutions evaluates the pool shell and systems to recommend the right path.
