There are many things that make fiberglass pools unique. Unlike concrete pools which need to be built or constructed on location, Fiberglass pools are single unit “shells”, constructed in factories and then installed on the property. Due to the way it is constructed, fiberglass provides added flexibility, which means that these pools are especially crack resistant. The single-shell Fiberglass units are specially treated with a gel-coating that keeps the surfaces smooth and the algae resistant.

These are the “cons”:

Fiberglass pools have some of the lowest long-term maintenance costs. Fiberglass doesn’t require the brushing, skimming and chemical treatments common with other pool types. They are also less porous, which means they are less likely to accumulate algae. This is primarily because of the gel coating that covers the fiberglass finish.
Fiberglass pools do require gel coating replacements, approximately every fifteen years. This makes Fiberglass cost-effective long term options requiring significantly less maintenance than some other options.
Fiberglass pools rarely crack!
This is because the fiberglass pool is manufactured as one single-piece shell and coated with a gel-coating.
The construction process of the fiberglass shell creates a thinner and more flexible pool, that is resistant to cracking.
