3 Reasons Your Family Will Love a Fiberglass Pool

Are you regularly on the hunt for new ways to spend quality time together as a family? Is it becoming increasingly difficult to tear the kids away from their electronics? Think you’ve run out of options? Maybe you should consider adding a backyard pool. Installing a sleek and low-maintenance fiberglass pool is sure to bring the family together and put a smile on everyone’s face. Still need a bit of convincing? Here are three reasons why your family will love a fiberglass pool.

Stands the Test of Time for Your Family

When you invest in a backyard pool, you want it to last so that you get many years of carefree enjoyment. Fiberglass pools are in it with you and your family for the long haul. A well cared for fiberglass pool can last for 30 years or more, with little to no repair time. That means that there is very little wasted swim time for you and the family.

Speaking of caring for your fiberglass pool, did you know that fiberglass pools are quite low maintenance? Of course, they’re not completely hands off. You still need to keep up with water testing and balancing, and do some skimming and cleaning. That said, the non-porous surface of a fiberglass pool means that algae has a tough time taking hold. Also, any build-up that does accumulate can usually be wiped away easily with a soft cloth. 

You can also feel quite confident that a fiberglass pool will stand up to the energy of your kids and their friends (or your own raucous friends). Fiberglass pools are both flexible and strong, so they aren’t prone to damage.

Something for All Swimmers

There are so many design options to choose from in fiberglass pools that there truly is something to suit every taste and need. Families with emerging swimmers may look to designs with gradual depth or extra wide steps. These features can help beginners gain confidence. 

Those who love entertaining may enjoy a design with bench seating along one or more edges. This type of design provides a fun new venue to gather with friends. 

And if you are looking to boost the family fitness level, there are options for that as well. Fiberglass lap pools have a long, narrow shape and are specifically made for swimming laps. Of course, they can be used for family frolicking as well. They also make a wonderful option for those who want a pool, but have a long, narrow backyard shape. 

A Stylish Gathering Spot for Your Family

When you add a fiberglass pool to your yard, you extend the space you have to gather with family and friends. You also have the opportunity to show off your style in a whole new way. Fiberglass pools come in a variety of shapes and sizes. There are classic pools, sleek, modern shapes, and playful, freeform designs. And, of course, you can add fun elements such as inlaid tiles, tanning ledges, bubblers, and LED lights.

Your fiberglass pool will easily become your family’s go-to destination whether you’re spending time on your own or entertaining a crowd.
