FIND OUT WHY A CONCRETE INGROUND POOL IS ALWAYS THE RIGHT SWIMMING POOL CHOICE



Fiberglass

  • Because of the higher cost of quality materials, fiberglass pools are much more expensive to build than a vinyl liner pool.
  • As fiberglass pools are built from an expensive mold, the options in terms of size as well as shapes are significantly limited per pool manufacturers.
  • Fiberglass pools are transported via roads, which means they cannot be wider than 16′.
  • Moreover the logistic costs from shipping your pool as well as potential risks in terms of damages are quite high.
  • Fiberglass pools are also quite limited on depth (usually ranging from 6′ to 8′).

Vinyl Liner

  • Vinyl liner pools usually have a higher lifetime cost as the liner has to be replaced every 7 to 15 years.
  • Some extra precaution must be made to your pool as the liner is relatively thin and could be torn by a dogs, or children throwing things into the pool.
  • There are very limited options in terms of customization when it comes to vinyl liner pools, and you will not have much choices in your stairs or seats design.
  • Aesthetically, liner pools will look cheaper than a concrete or fiberglass pools, which means it will not bring as much value as these two options.
