Fiberglass Swimming Pools Don't Need Renovations!

In addition to their monthly pool payment, gunite or vinyl pool owners use their credit card for
renovations, BUT... fiberglass pool owners enjoy peace of mind knowing their initial tax-deductible pool loan covers it all!

Fiberglass Resurfacing = $0

Fiberglass pool owners never pay for renovations!

A properly maintained surface of a gunite pool is expected to last 7 10 years. However, with each acid wash, a layer of plaster is etched away, requiring resurfacing that plaster surface much sooner.

Typical Plaster Resurfacing = $5,500

Well maintained vinyl liners may need relining every 4+ years. Adverse pH conditions and strong ultraviolet light rapidly deteriorate vinyl liners, reducing their lifespan drastically.

Typical Liner Replacement = $3,100

These renovation costs are repeated over the life of the pool. Is the smaller price tag on that vinyl or gunite pool really less expensive?
