Quite a bit. Epic Watershapes’ page lists new plaster and a new interior finish, new tile and coping, new equipment, and even a full redesign of the shell and the deck around it. Structural repair is on the list too.
So a remodel can be small or big. This article walks through each option on the page, what the page says about cost, and the questions to ask before you book. I’ll also say when pool construction makes more sense than a remodel, and flag anything the page doesn’t cover.
What does a new interior finish involve?
New plaster and interior finish lead the list. Epic names PebbleTec and quartz as finish options, has a page on PebbleTec finishes in South Florida, and is listed as an Elite Builder by Pebble Technology International.
The page doesn’t compare the two finishes or give prices, so ask for samples and a written line in the quote. The menu also has a separate resurfacing service, though the page doesn’t spell out where that ends and a remodel begins.
Why do tile and coping get their own mention?
Tile and coping are the edge details, and they get their own line on the page. The remodeling list names new tile and new coping, alongside decking and equipment upgrades.
A reviewer in Jupiter said Epic revamped their backyard, adding water features and handling the landscaping too. That’s one customer’s account, but it shows the work can reach past the water. Ask what’s in scope before you agree to anything.
What about equipment upgrades?
New equipment is part of the remodeling description, and the menu lists pool heaters, pool fences and equipment repair as part of the job. Anyone who types pool remodeling near me because the equipment is the problem should ask whether the work counts as repair or remodeling, since Epic lists both.
The page doesn’t name brands or specs. Salt air, wind exposure and tight lot access change what equipment, finish and hardware will last, according to the page, so coastal owners in particular should ask what gets specified and why.
When does a remodel turn into a full redesign?
The page lists a full redesign of the shell and the deck around it as the biggest option under remodeling. It also lists structural repair. It doesn’t say where repair ends and redesign begins, so let the site visit settle it.
That visit measures the lot, the access, the setbacks and the equipment run. Access matters, since what has to come out and go back moves the number more than most design choices, and Epic says that’s why its 72 hour price holds.
What does a remodel cost to start?
The page puts a full remodel or resurfacing project at around $20,000. The real number turns on size, depth, finish, water features, deck area and access to the yard. It also says an aging pool gets more expensive every season it waits.
Within 72 hours of the visit, you get a 3D design and an itemised price, free and yours to keep. The form asks for a budget band, from $60,000 to $100,000 up to $250,000 and beyond, so the guidance option may suit a smaller job. That’s my reading.
Who stands behind a remodel?
Epic holds licence CPC1460900 and says the licence covers the whole job, with no general contractor in the middle. That includes remodels, since the page says every job it lists runs under Epic’s own licence.
If a tile lifts in year two, the page says, there’s no one else for Epic to blame. It doesn’t list warranty terms, so ask for them in writing. Credentials include a BBB A+ rating, full insurance and membership in the Florida Swimming Pool Association.
Does your town matter for a remodel?
Epic says Palm Beach and Broward County hold thirty six municipalities with thirty six sets of rules, and a permit in Parkland isn’t a permit in Gulf Stream. It prices the difference before you sign, not after.
The page doesn’t say which remodels need permits or HOA review, so ask. Epic does prepare engineering and permit drawings and the HOA or club package for its jobs, and it tells you at the survey which town’s process applies.
What do customers and awards say?
The page counts 125 five star reviews out of 126 across Google, Thumbtack and Angi. A Jupiter reviewer said the team was quick to respond, and a Boca Raton reviewer praised the communication and project management.
Awards on the page include Sun Sentinel South Florida Favorites wins for 2026 and an Angi Super Service Award from 2024. Epic has served Palm Beach and Broward County since 2019. Check each one yourself before you rely on it.
When is a new build the better call?
Sometimes the shell has had its day. Then pool construction is the better route, and Epic’s gunite pools are engineered for the water table, soil and wind code of the place you build in. The page doesn’t say when to choose a rebuild, so ask at the site visit.
A new custom gunite pool generally starts around $60,000, and construction takes 8 to 12 weeks once approvals clear, after 4 to 12 weeks of design, engineering, HOA or club approval and permitting. Remodels get no timeline on the page, so ask for one.
What about shared pools?
Epic runs a separate commercial department for condominium and homeowner associations, clubs and hotels. It’s built around how a board buys, with a bid against a spec and one point of contact.
Resurfacing and ongoing service contracts are part of that work, along with code compliance and inspection coordination. The page gives no commercial prices or timelines, so a board should ask for both in writing.
Can the yard around the pool be redone too?
The menu lists a pool deck and driveway service, custom outdoor kitchens, pergolas, and a 3D pool and backyard design service. Cocktail pools and spas have their own page as well.
Recent projects show how far a yard can go: a Wellington lap pool with a travertine deck and covered patio, and a Jupiter freeform pool with a round spa, travertine deck and covered pergola. The page doesn’t say whether either began as a remodel.
How do you start a remodel enquiry?
For a pool remodeling near me enquiry, pick remodeling, resurfacing or not sure yet on the contact form, choose a budget band, and book the site visit. Epic replies Monday to Saturday, 8am to 5pm. The listed office is 1120 Holland Drive, Suite 13, in Boca Raton. There’s no deposit and no obligation to see the design.
So what can a remodel change?
Plaster and finish, tile and coping, equipment, decking, structural repair, or the whole shell and deck. That’s the page’s list, and your yard decides how far down it you go. Whether it’s pool remodeling near me or pool construction, ask for the itemised price first.
