Inground "One Piece" Fiberglass Pools

"One Piece" Fiberglass Pools are manufactured in factories utilizing quality control standards and transported to the jobsite. The composition of the product consists of a durable non porous gel coat interior finish usually reinforced on the back with a composite material - primarily fiberglass reinforced plastic.

Most manufacturers offer many varieties of sizes and shapes. With newer technologies for color, fiberglass pools offer a wide range of options for the simple to sophisticated buyer. Many options are available that give fiberglass pools a permanent aesthetic appeal.

The process of construction involves digging a hole to match the shape of the pool, then sand or pea gravel is washed into the voided areas simultaneously while the pool is being filled to create a solid base for the pool to rest against. Once this backfill process is complete, plumbing, equipment placement and decking would complete the pool.

Considerations

Design Choose from a variety of shapes and sizes to fit your backyard and entertainment needs. Bench seating, swim outs, and other designs vary by size and models. Depths vary by model with only a few manufacturers offering pools deep enough for a diving board. Pools of these depths offer unique challenges in the building process and usually cost and take more time to install.

Interior Finish Colors and texture looking finishes are available on limited manufacturer basis and as most colors may fade over time from UV exposure. Although these pools may cost more to purchase they offer a very unique appearance and hide blemishes, stains and dirt very well. Optional tile border and inlaid tile mosaics are features that can add life and color to your pool. There are a variety of lightening options to make your pool safer as well as bring it to life at night.
Decking and Coping Decking choices are unlimited - exposed fiberglass coping for the economy minded individual. Stained, stamped, or cantilevered for the more permanent aesthetic appeal of a more sophisticated buyer. Coping choices can be stone or brick with a number of different textures, profiles, and coordinated colors.

Upgrade Possibilities & Accessories Most features can be added after installation, but it is generally more cost effective to include the features you desire at the time of initial installation. Many options are available such as spillover spas, waterfalls, hydrotherapy jets / equipment, computer command centers, and modern sanitizing systems. In addition, there are also a number of accessories and outdoor activity centers to complement your pool area. LifeSpaces can help. Call them @ 574-255-5393.
