For people in the market for a durable inground swimming pool that looks great and won’t cost nearly as much as a gunite pool, a fiberglass pool is your best option. Easy to maintain and quick to install, homeowners can often be lounging next to their new inground pool in just a few weeks. 

Your Pool’s Design

Fiberglass, though most often prefabricated, looks custom built due to the variety of pool shapes and number of features that can be added to its poolscape. Seating and entryways are typically built into the fiberglass shell, but other options including waterfalls, lighting, and even inground spas can easily be included. 

Your Pool’s Lifespan

No other type of swimming pool compares when it comes to durability. While concrete and vinyl liner pools need repair or replacement every 5 to 10 years, a fiberglass pool can easily last for 25 years with proper maintenance. They are also less likely to fade, stain, and appear outdated.

Your Pool’s Maintenance

One major draw to fiberglass swimming pools is that the surface of it is treated with a weather resistant gel. This makes it incredibly difficult for algae and bacteria to cling and wreak havoc on your pool. Because of this, your fiberglass pool will not require nearly as much maintenance as a concrete or vinyl pool.
