Pools can be expensive to build and maintain but they can add considerable value to your property and provide many lifestyle benefits. Since roman times, pools have been utilised for their hygienic, restorative and socialising properties; it is no different today. As a consequence, pools come in a tremendous array of shapes, sizes, and finishes. Some basic pool types are as follows:-
Above-Ground Pools are the cheapest and the easiest to build. Most are made from prefabricated kits, which even an amateur can put together (though most go with professional installers). The ground is levelled, an outer wall (made of metal, plastic or wood) constructed, the plumbing laid and finally, the vinyl liner is secured over the pool walls. As soon as the pump and filtering system are hooked up, these pools are ready to go. However they are less durable than other designs; generally less attractive and less permanent, (which can be a good thing, it’s relatively easy to disassemble the pool and move it to a new location).
In-Ground Pools all require a construction crew to dig an appropriately sized and shaped hole. With Fibreglass Pools a pre-moulded shell is lowered into the hole. The constructors then level the pool; hook up the plumbing and backfill around the pool. Another choice is the Vinyl-Lined Pools. After digging a hole, the constructors assemble a metal, plastic or wood-frame wall around the perimeter and secure the vinyl lining to the structural wall. These pools are a lot cheaper than other in-ground designs, but not as durable as the liner needs to be
