Fiberglass vs. Gunite vs. Vinyl Liner Pools: Which is Best For you?
FIND THE TYPE OF POOL THAT FITS YOU BEST
Ultimately, the best type of inground swimming pool is the one that lets you get the most enjoyment out of your backyard. Planning your dream pool and picking pool materials is an initial step to set you up for a lifetime of fun and memories. To help you choose the best type of swimming pool for you, we’ll look at factors like installation time, style and customization, pool cost, durability and maintenance needs to help you understand the differences between Latham fiberglass and vinyl liner pools vs. concrete (also referred to as gunite or shotcrete) pools.
Fiberglass vs Vinyl Liner vs Concrete (Gunite)
Installation Time
If you’re looking to get an inground swimming pool built quickly, fiberglass is the absolute best option. Unlike concrete pools which are often built using the gunite process, fiberglass pools are pre-engineered and can be installed in as little as three days after delivery. Vinyl liner pools may take a bit longer to build and install, but they still offer a much faster installation time compared to concrete pools which can take three to six months from permit process to final touches like fence installation. By choosing a fiberglass inground swimming pool, you can have a beautiful and functional swimming pool in your backyard in just a matter of weeks, instead of enduring the arduous and time-consuming process required for a concrete or vinyl liner pool.

Customization
When it comes to designing the perfect swimming pool for your backyard, customization is key. While fiberglass pools are pre-engineered, they come in various options that can be tailored to fit any aesthetic. Vinyl liner pools offer a fair amount of opportunities for customization but not nearly as much as the fiberglass counterpart. Concrete pools also offer many customization options but require significant planning and groundwork to design.

Starting Costs
When it comes to inground swimming pool cost, there are a number of factors that can affect the final price tag. Of the three pool options available, concrete pools tend to be the most expensive, with initial costs starting at around $50,000. On the other hand, fiberglass have the lowest cost to entry, with initial costs starting at around $45,000. However, the total cost of these pools can also depend on a variety of factors, such as the size of the pool, the features included, and the complexity of the installation.

Material Longevity
When it comes to choosing the right inground swimming pool for your home, durability is a key consideration. Fiberglass pools are an excellent choice for homeowners who want a pool that can last a lifetime. Made from high-quality materials; fiberglass pools are exceptionally durable and resistant to wear and tear. With proper maintenance, your fiberglass pool can provide you and your family years of enjoyment. Vinyl liner pools are also a popular choice for homeowners who want a pool that can last a lifetime. While the liner itself will need to be replaced on average every ten years, this provides a unique opportunity to completely refresh the look of your pool. With a variety of liner options available, you can customize your pool to fit your changing style preferences over time. Concrete pools can also last for decades, but they require routine maintenance such as costly acid washing and resurfacing approximately every 10 years. In addition, concrete pools can be more prone to issues like cracking or leaks, which can lead to expensive repairs down the line.

ADVANTAGES OF FIBERGLASS POOLS
Quick Fiberglass Pool Installation
If you’re looking for a durable and efficient inground swimming pool option, fiberglass pools are an excellent choice. Unlike concrete (gunite) pools which can take approximately three to six months to install, fiberglass pools are pre-engineered and can be installed in as little as three days after delivery. This means that you can start enjoying your new pool almost immediately after it’s delivered to your home.
In addition to being quicker to install, fiberglass pools are also highly durable. Made from high-quality materials, fiberglass pools are resistant to algae and other common issues that can plague traditional concrete pools. They also have a smooth surface that is easy to clean and maintain, making them a popular choice for busy homeowners who want a low-maintenance swimming pool option.
When comparing fiberglass pools vs concrete (gunite) pools, the difference in installation time is significant. Concrete pools need to be poured on-site, which can not only increase the time to complete but also keep your yard in disarray for a much longer period of time. One of the most time-consuming parts of the concrete process is that it requires between 28 to 30 days for the material to cure.
Fiberglass Pools: Size, Shape and Customizations
- Customizable Add-Ons: We offer a variety of features to customize your pool, including tanning ledges, bubblers, LED lights, and inlaid tiles.
- Sizes: Our fiberglass swimming pools are available in a range of pre-engineered sizes
- Shape Options: Our fiberglass pools are available in a variety of shapes including rectangular, kidney-shaped, and free form.
- Salt Water Compatible: Fiberglass pools are exceptional for salt water systems because there is no corrosion
Carefree Maintenance & Long Lasting
One of the key benefits of fiberglass pools is their durability. Our fiberglass pools are designed to last the lifetime of the home they are installed in. With Latham’s carbon-infused technologies and an eight-element building process that provides industry-leading thickness and durability, you can be confident that your fiberglass pool will withstand years of use without sacrificing its appearance or functionality.
In addition to being durable, fiberglass pools are also low-maintenance. With the crystite gelcoat engineered and built for fade resistance, our pools offer the most durable surface colors. The smooth, durable finish also makes fiberglass easier to clean and control algae growth. Compared to other pool types, fiberglass pools require 30% less chlorine to keep clean, resulting in lower maintenance costs over time.
When it comes to cost-of-maintenance, fiberglass pools are a cost-effective option. Unlike concrete pools, there are no costly upkeep expenses like acid washing and resurfacing needed to maintain their appearance and functionality. In comparison, the 10-year maintenance cost of a concrete pool can range between $15,000 to $27,000—more expensive than both fiberglass and vinyl liner pools.
