Fiberglass pools are cheaper to build and maintain, quicker to install, and more flexible, especially with Florida’s shifting sandy ground. While concrete pools need to be resurfaced every 7 to 10 years and cost about $300 per year in chemicals, fiberglass pools require no resurfacing and, with a salt system, cost only about $50 a year to treat.
While it’s true concrete pools are more customizable (you can create any shape and any depth you want), most people are able to find what they want in one of the over 60 options of San Juan fiberglass pools we install. And yes, you can still have a pour-over spa, tanning ledge, or rock waterfall with your fiberglass pool.
If you have children, you will be happy to know that fiberglass pools are gentler on kids’ feet. Concrete has a tendency to cause blistering and sores when kids spend a lot of time in the pool. With your fiberglass pool, the kids can play all day and their feet will be safe, no matter how wrinkly those little toes get!
