Which Pool is Best for Me?

The type of pool that is best for you depends on a variety of factors, including your budget, your preferred style and design, and your maintenance preferences. Contact us to schedule a consultation or learn more about the options below.

Why a Fiberglass Pool?

Fiberglass pools are made of a single piece of pre-formed fiberglass, which is installed into a hole that has been dug in the ground. They are typically less porous than concrete pools, which means they require fewer chemicals to maintain. They are also less prone to algae growth and staining. However, they can be more expensive than vinyl liner pools, and not as customizable in terms of shape and size.

Why a Vinyl Liner Pool?

Vinyl liner pools are a popular type of in-ground pool They are made of a flexible vinyl liner that is installed over a frame of steel, aluminum, or polymer. Vinyl liner pools are typically less expensive than other types of in-ground pools and highly customizable, but the liner can be prone to punctures and tears. However, the liner is replaceable, and repairs can occasionally be made without having to replace the entire pool. If your dog loves the water, this may not be the best option for you.

Why a Concrete Pool?

There are a few different types of concrete pools. One type is a gunite pool, the other type of concrete pool is a shotcrete pool, which is similar to gunite, but uses a different spraying process.

Bliss Pools specializes in the shotcrete pools.  Our Shotcrete Specialist has been ‘shooting’ pools for over 14 years and is American Concrete Institute Certified with a wealth of experience and knowledge on the job.

Shotcrete pools are highly customizable in terms of shape and size, and durable and long-lasting.  However, they can be expensive to install and maintain.  They require regular cleaning and maintenance to prevent the growth of algae and other contaminants.

Benefits of Having a Pool

Pools are a great place to cool off on hot days, and can be a fun gathering place for friends and family.

Pools are also a great form of exercise.  They are great for low impact exercise that can help build endurance, strength, and cardiovascular fitness.  It can also help improve flexibility and reduce stress.

Additionally, having a pool can increase the value of your home. If you’ve maintained your pool and outdoor living space, you’ll attract the buyers who find value in outdoor activities, those with children, or those who love to entertain.

Maintaining a pool can be a challenge. Make sure you are ready to commit to regular cleaning, balancing chemicals and maintaining the right temperature. Pools also need to be kept secured with a gated fence that meets your local bylaw requirements. An auto-cover or a safety cover will ensure that small children and animals are protected when you are not around.
