CINCINNATI’S FIRST FIBERGLASS POOL INSTALLER

Why Fiberglass?

We began installing fiberglass swimming pools in the Cincinnati area in 1996. We were the 1st pool company and pool installer in the area to exclusively install fiberglass pools. We made the move to fiberglass because it was impossible to ignore the obvious advantages that fiberglass pools have over other technologies.

Why Our Customers Choose Fiberglass

Why Smart Buyers Are Turning to Fiberglass

Over 60% of our sales are to homeowners installing a new pool for the second or third time. They have owned Gunite and Vinyl Liner pools before and are all too familiar with the problems and maintenance costs associated with those pool types. Once they make the switch to fiberglass, they don’t look back.

Fiberglass pools surpass Gunite pools in structural quality. The high tensile strength of fiberglass will allow the pool shell to flex without cracking to accommodate earth movement. Fiberglass pools are the best choice when considering the soil and weather conditions in our area. Fiberglass will bow up to 12″ before the structure of the shell is compromised. Concrete/Gunite, as a solid structure, will not expand to accommodate climate changes and soil expansion/contractions.

Unlike a gunite, the gel coat finish on a Fiberglass pool is smooth & non-porous and does not harbor algae or bacteria. A Fiberglass pool virtually cleans itself and is stain resistant, eliminating the need for acid baths and concrete crack repair and re-painting that comes with ownership of a Gunite pool. Fiberglass pools never need resurfacing (repainting or replastering), which means less long-term maintenance. Gunite pools normally need to be resurfaced every 7 to 10 years with an average cost of $9,000 to $12,000.

Gunite pools require constant monitoring and expensive chemicals due to their rough and porous surface. Not so with Fiberglass pools. The surface is chemically inert so there is absolutely nothing in the pool surface that can alter the water chemistry. As a result, fiberglass pools use significantly less chemicals and energy. Due to its smooth surface, pool pumps only need to run a few hours per day. Fiberglass pool water stays warmer longer since the fiberglass is a natural insulator. This can amount to a huge energy cost savings over the life of the pool.

Fiberglass swimming pools come directly from the manufacturing facility, pre-made and ready to install, dramatically reducing installation time. In fact, with ideal weather conditions, you can be swimming in as little as seven days. Compare that to a Gunite/concrete pool that can take months to complete.

One of the most important features that sets Fiberglass pools apart from either a Concrete (Gunite) pool or a Vinyl Liner pool is the degree of quality control. A Fiberglass pool is manufactured in an indoor, controlled environment with strict quality control standards. This eliminates the majority of the on-site manufacturing steps of other types of pools. The quality of a Gunite/Vinyl Liner pool will depend on the experience of the crew (labor) and the weather conditions. For example, if it rains, sleets or hails several days prior to or after installation of a Gunite/concrete pool, the quality of the pool can be diminished.

Like Concrete/Gunite pools, Vinyl Liner pools are assembled at the job site. One small sharp object can puncture the vinyl liner. Improper chemical balance in Vinyl Liner pools can cause the vinyl liner to become brittle or wrinkle. Vinyl Liner pools are vulnerable to ultraviolet degradation (from the sun) and its seams can separate. Liners normally need to be replaced every 7 to 9 years at a cost of about $3000 per replacement.

Salt water generators, chlorinators and fresh water systems all work well with Fiberglass Pools. Whatever your system choice may be, fiberglass pools are 100% compatible.

If you are getting other quotes, ask if a lifetime warranty is being provided on the structure of the swimming pool.
