As a leading Massachusetts fiberglass pool installer, we can sometimes field dozens of inquiries per week \u2013 even as we are just moving into the warmer months of the year. And although we can\u2019t speak for our colleagues and competitors, our impression is that interest is up throughout the region.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
So why are the fiberglass pool installers near you so busy?<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Since phone calls, foot traffic, and inquiries are all increasing for us, we decided to do a little bit of research. We\u2019ve been talking to our customers about why they decided to reach out. In the process, we realized that a few themes came up again and again.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Let\u2019s look at some of the reasons these products have become such a big part of the patio design business lately\u2026<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Fiberglass pools aren\u2019t exactly new. After all, the products have been around for decades. Until recently, though, they weren\u2019t all that common throughout New England.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The patio renovation industry is like many others, in that there is a tipping point that gets reached when just enough people start to choose a specific product or design scheme. Then, it\u2019s only a matter of time before their neighbors see them and become inspired. Something that was once unique or unusual begins to feel a little more common.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
As fiberglass pool installers, we are seeing this happen in real time. Because a higher percentage of homeowners have opted to skip the traditional concrete pools, more of their neighbors feel safe doing the same. The result is that it can feel like you\u2019re seeing fiberglass pools everywhere.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Of course, none of that would happen if the products themselves weren\u2019t appealing. That brings us to another important point.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Curb appeal is a big part of any landscaping project. As a homeowner you want to make your outdoor space more usable and more beautiful. The better it looks, the more relaxed you feel. Also, it\u2019s nice to watch your family and friends be impressed by what you\u2019ve done with your backyard.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
This works very much in the favor of fiberglass swimming pools. While traditional concrete pools might have a sort of cinderblock appearance about them, fiberglass models can be chosen in striking colors like sea blue, vivid coral, and midnight black. Each of these makes an instant and powerful impression. They also look fantastic with the right kind of paving and stonework around them.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Any swimming pool can look like a gorgeous and refreshing oasis on a hot day. But fiberglass pools offer an instant wow factor that you can\u2019t get from traditional materials.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
We all know that the first look at anything is the most important for setting opinions and preferences. The slightly exotic look of fiberglass pools means they are always going to be memorable.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The vast majority of homeowners we work with want to turn their backyards into a kind of resort they can visit again and again with no fees, no waiting, and no travel. What they don\u2019t want is another set of chores, bills, and responsibilities.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Certainly, any kind of swimming pool is going to require some level of maintenance and upkeep. However, fiberglass pools are much simpler (and cheaper) than their concrete counterparts over the long run. You don\u2019t have to treat the water as frequently, they don\u2019t require much in the way of cleaning, and they aren\u2019t prone to cracking and other damage the way older options are.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
For the most part, a homeowner can have a fiberglass pool installed, fill it with fresh or salt water, and follow a pretty minimal maintenance routine. Meanwhile, their new pool will continue to look and feel exactly as it did on the first day because the underlying material is so much more durable than concrete is.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Being on vacation in your patio is a dream. Keeping track of chemicals, liners, and algae on a rough surface isn\u2019t nearly as enjoyable. Is it any wonder that homeowners are choosing the fun option?<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Ideally, we want our customers focused on the outcome they want to achieve: a perfect patio. We don\u2019t live in a perfect world, though, so they have to think about things like budgets and schedules when making decisions.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Sometimes a customer\u2019s dream can translate into hard choices. Is it better to install one item this month or wait for the better, more expensive option that won\u2019t be available until later in the year? With fiberglass pool installation they don\u2019t have to choose between those priorities. That\u2019s because the pools themselves cost less, require less time and money for upkeep, and can be installed much more quickly than concrete pools can.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Consider this: it\u2019s not unusual for a new customer to meet with us and choose a pool that matches their outdoor space perfectly. Once we measure and prepare the property, the unit can be installed in just a few days. That means the whole process could be finished in a couple of weeks, and with the added benefit of saving thousands of dollars and hundreds of hours in the decades to come.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
You can probably tell that we love fiberglass pools at Stefano\u2019s Landscaping. However, there is a big difference between thinking a product is great and feeling like it\u2019s definitely the right fit for your property.<\/p>\n
