If you need a pool installed, there are several construction
options. The three basic pool types available are vinyl liner,
fiberglass, and concrete. In the southern states, including Georgia,
concrete pools are the most common type of pools. Concrete pools are so popular because they are customizable. Unlike
fiberglass pools, which come pre-made off-site, concrete is poured to
your specifications. Concrete pools use plaster as the final interior
finish. Vinyl liner pools are constructed just like concrete pools, except
the liner acts as the waterproofing instead of plaster. They are less
customizable though because the liners are easiest to find in standard
sizes and need to be the right size to fit snugly into the top edge of
the pool’s coping. Fiberglass pools are quick to install and resistant to stains and
algae. But because they are pre-formed in a factory, homeowners have
fewer designs to choose from; and because of delivery issues, there are
size limitations.
If you notice any cracks or leaks in your pool, any of the Best
Picks in the pool companies category will be able to help you repair
it. You may also want to consider certain renovation options for giving
your pool a more modern look. Proper maintenance is essential for a functional, long-lasting pool.
While some maintenance you can do yourself, other tasks should be
handled by a professional. Some homeowners prefer to allow a
professional to handle most of their pool maintenance. It may be
helpful to meet with a pool company so they can help you determine your
pool’s needs.
Remember that the pool business is very cyclical. Everyone will be
thinking about pool cleaning, repair, and installation in the middle of
the summer. That’s when most pool companies are at their busiest. If at
all possible, to get the best service and the most prompt service, try
to schedule your pool work for the off-season.
