What to know about Pool renovation
Renovating a pool is not simply a cosmetic decision, because in several states pulling a permit to remodel resets safety obligations that an older pool was never held to. California is the clearest case. When a building permit is issued for the construction of a new swimming pool or spa or the remodeling of an existing swimming pool or spa at a private single-family home, the pool must be equipped with at least two of seven listed drowning prevention safety features, and before final approval the local building code official inspects those features and grants approval only if no violations are found. New York works the same way through a different mechanism: a swimming pool installed, constructed or substantially modified after December 14, 2006 must be equipped with an approved pool alarm unless it has an automatic safety cover complying with ASTM F1346, and the permanent barrier requirements apply to pools substantially modified after May 12, 2020 regardless of whether a safety cover is provided.

How to choose pool contractors in Harrisonburg
- Choose a company that works on your type of pool or hot tub, whether it's in-ground, above-ground or a spa.
- For a new pool, ask who handles the permit, the fencing requirements and the electrical and gas connections.
- Make sure electrical and gas work for heaters, pumps and hot tubs is done by licensed trades.
- Get a written quote that covers excavation, backfill, equipment, decking and site restoration.
- For openings, closings and maintenance, ask exactly what each visit includes.
Questions to ask pool contractors before you hire
- Who will get the permit, and what fencing or gate rules will I need to meet?
- Who will do the electrical and gas hookups, and are they licensed?
- What equipment do you recommend, and why?
- What does the warranty cover for the pool shell or liner, the equipment and your installation?
- How will you get equipment into my yard, and how will you restore the lawn afterwards?
- What is included in an opening, closing or maintenance visit?
Pool renovation permits in Virginia
