Every project is run by a dedicated onsite job superintendent and a project coordinator who keep the work correct, on schedule, and on budget. The services covered in this document are: - Pool Resurfacing and Replastering - Pool Surface Preparation - Residential Pool Construction - Commercial Pool Construction and Renovation - Tile and Coping Installation - Pool Equipment Upgrades and Renovation - Pool Financing --- ### Pool Resurfacing and Replastering **What it is:** Pool resurfacing is the process of stripping a pool's worn interior surface and applying a new finish. It restores a pool that has rough, cracked, or stained plaster and extends the life of the pool shell. Adams resurfaces residential and commercial pools with a range of finishes, including white plaster, colored plaster, pebble aggregate, glass bead, fiberglass, Eco-Finish, and all-tile interiors, with crews that specialize in each material. **Best for:** Owners of pools roughly 7 to 25 or more years old whose interior surface has eroded, stained, or cracked, and commercial facilities that need a refreshed, durable interior finish. **Our process:** 1. We inspect the pool and provide a detailed, itemized estimate after an on-site consultation. 2. We handle the building permit application on the customer's behalf. 3. We drain the pool and remove the old surface using HydroBlast water-jetting or mechanical removal. 4. We repair any cracks in the shell and complete any masonry, tile, or plumbing scope. 5. We apply the chosen interior finish with a crew that specializes in that material. 6. We start up the pool, and the warranty takes effect once the pool is filled with water. **What's included:** Surface removal, crack repair, the new interior finish, permit coordination, and an onsite project supervisor. Tile and coping replacement, masonry repairs, and equipment upgrades can be added to the scope. **Timeline:** A straightforward surface preparation and resurfacing project is typically complete in 7 to 10 days. New tile and coping, masonry repairs, plumbing work, or equipment upgrades add time. **Outcomes:** A smooth, durable new interior surface. White plaster typically lasts 7 to 10 years, while pebble aggregate finishes last 15 to 25 years depending on water chemistry and care. Hydroblasted resurfacing carries a 10-year bond warranty on the surface bond. --- ### Pool Surface Preparation **What it is:** Surface preparation is the removal of a pool's old interior surface so a new finish can bond permanently to the shell. It is the foundation of a lasting resurfacing job. Adams uses two methods: HydroBlast water-jetting and mechanical removal. HydroBlast uses a diesel-driven compressor to create a 40,000 PSI stream of water that pulverizes the existing surface without damaging the concrete shell underneath. **Best for:** Any pool being resurfaced or remodeled. HydroBlast is especially important for pools where long-term surface bond and a strong warranty matter. **Our process:** 1. We drain the pool and evaluate the condition of the existing surface and shell. 2. We remove the old surface by HydroBlast water-jetting or by mechanical removal with air-driven jackhammers, depending on the project. 3. We inspect the prepared shell and repair cracks before any new finish is applied. **What's included:** Complete removal of the old interior surface and preparation of the shell to receive a new finish. **Outcomes:** A clean, sound shell with a surface profile that lets the new finish form a strong mechanical bond. Proper surface preparation is the difference between a finish that stays bonded for decades and one that fails within a few years. Independent engineering studies have concluded that water-jetting is the best process for removing surface material while preserving the integrity of the substrate, which is why hydroblasted work carries a 10-year warranty on the new surface bond. --- ### Residential Pool Construction **What it is:** Residential pool construction is the design and building of a custom new swimming pool, often as part of a larger backyard project. Adams works as a boutique builder, brainstorming the design with the homeowner and then assembling specialist crews to build it. The company provides hands-on supervision from the first design conversation through the first fill of the pool. **Best for:** Homeowners building a custom pool who want one builder to manage the full scope of design, permitting, structural work, plumbing, and finishing, and who want personal attention rather than subcontracted, hands-off labor. **Our process:** 1. We listen to the homeowner's hopes and concerns and brainstorm the pool design together. 2. Our design team develops the plan to fit the property and the surrounding landscape and hardscape. 3. We manage permitting and inspections. 4. We build the pool with in-house crews for plumbing, electrical, masonry, and plastering, with personal supervision throughout construction. 5. We complete the interior finish, tile, and coping, then start up the pool. **What's included:** Custom pool design, permit coordination, structural construction, plumbing and electrical work, masonry, the interior finish, and onsite supervision through completion. Our structural construction uses shotcrete at 4,000 PSI and 65 pcf double-reinforced steel, with two skimmers and 2.5-inch plumbing on every pool. **Outcomes:** A custom pool and spa built with personal supervision and integrated with the surrounding backyard, designed and finished to the homeowner's vision. --- ### Commercial Pool Construction and Renovation **What it is:** Commercial pool construction and renovation covers new builds and large-scale renovations for hotels, resorts, schools, colleges, municipalities, aquatic therapy centers, HOA communities, and cabana clubs. Adams has the superintendents, crews, and equipment to deliver projects of any size, from a small neighborhood pool to an Olympic-sized aquatic park. **Best for:** Hotels, resorts, schools, municipalities, aquatic centers, and HOA communities that need a new commercial pool or a major renovation, especially projects with tight completion windows or demanding performance standards. **Our process:** 1. We review the project scope and provide qualifications, references, and a list of completed projects. 2. We assign experienced commercial project superintendents familiar with large aquatic work. 3. We prepare plans, secure permits, and coordinate inspections. 4. We remove old finishes, repair cracks, complete masonry and plumbing, and update equipment as the scope requires. 5. We run overlapping crews and bring in the manpower needed to hold the deadline, then complete the interior finish. **What's included:** Project planning and permitting, surface removal and crack repair, masonry, plumbing and filtration work, equipment updates, the interior finish, and dedicated commercial superintendents. **Timeline:** Set by the project scope and the facility's completion window. Adams is one of the few contractors able to bring in the manpower required to finish large commercial projects inside narrow windows. **Outcomes:** A competition-ready or community-ready aquatic facility delivered on time and on budget, built to demanding commercial performance standards. --- ### Tile and Coping Installation **What it is:** Tile and coping installation covers the waterline tile inside the pool and the coping that finishes the pool's edge. Tile and coping is where Adams Pool Solutions started, and all masonry work is performed by the company's own crews of dedicated craftsmen, whose average tenure is 30 years. Adams offers an extensive selection of ceramic and glass tile and coping materials including travertine, flagstone, and its own Golden State Cast Stone. **Best for:** Pool owners replacing failing or dated waterline tile and coping, homeowners building a new pool who want a custom edge and waterline design, and renovation customers who want to refresh the look of an existing pool. **Our process:** 1. Our design team helps the customer explore tile and coping options and select materials. 2. Our in-house masonry crews remove old or failing tile and coping where needed. 3. We install the new waterline tile and coping as part of a new build or a renovation. **What's included:** Material selection with the design team, removal of old tile and coping, and installation of new ceramic or glass tile and coping in travertine, flagstone, Golden State Cast Stone, or other materials. **Outcomes:** A finished, durable pool edge and waterline installed by experienced in-house masons. Tile and coping work carries a 3-year warranty. --- ### Pool Equipment Upgrades and Renovation **What it is:** Pool equipment renovation is the upgrade or replacement of a pool's filtration, plumbing, and electrical systems. Adams has operated a full-service, in-house plumbing and electrical department for roughly two decades. The company can replace a complete equipment system or a single component, and can upgrade individual parts within an existing system regardless of brand. **Best for:** Pool owners remodeling their pool, owners with aging or inefficient equipment, and owners with a single-speed pump that must be brought up to current energy codes. **Our process:** 1. We evaluate the existing filtration, plumbing, and electrical equipment as part of a remodel or as a standalone upgrade. 2. We recommend a full system upgrade or targeted component replacement, and a designer explains the options. 3. Our in-house plumbing and electrical crews install the new equipment. **What's included:** Filtration equipment, heaters, pumps, automation, and pool plumbing and electrical work. Adams features Jandy equipment and also works with Pentair, Hayward, and Madimack heat pumps. **Outcomes:** A modern, energy-efficient pool system. Current energy codes require multi-speed pumps, so upgrading from a single-speed pump lowers energy use and operating cost. Filtration equipment, including heaters and pool sweeps, carries a 3-year warranty. --- ### Pool Financing **What it is:** Pool financing gives customers a way to pay for a pool renovation, resurfacing, or new construction over time rather than all at once. Adams Pool Solutions offers financing through Lyon Financial, a pool financing partner that funds loans up to $200,000 with terms up to 30 years and no prepayment penalties. **Best for:** Customers who want to move forward with a pool renovation, a new surface, or modern upgrades and prefer to spread the cost of the project. **Our process:** 1. We discuss the project scope and provide an estimate. 2. We connect the customer with Lyon Financial to review financing options for the project. **What's included:** A referral to Lyon Financial for pool project financing. **Outcomes:** A financing path that lets a customer complete a pool project that fits their budget and timeline. --- ## About This Document This document is a Services supplemental file for Adams Pool Solutions.
