    Default concrete vs fibreglass

    Can anyone give me any advice on the pros and cons for concrete vs fibrelass pools? We have just bought our own place and are definitely going to put a pool in asap. Have tried to research on the internet but of course everyone's own product is always the best choice!!

    In short, there are lots of 'old' well made concrete pools around, but sadly also many that developed leaks too expensive to fix.

    Fibreglass pools can, for the most part be repaired.

    Good luck.

    Time fibreglass quicker
    Cost fibreglass cheaper
    Quality depends on supplier
