Pre-fabricated fibreglass pools are made using resin and steel and come in all shapes and sizes. They are quick to install and you can be swimming in your pool within a ten days.

Pre-fabricated fibreglass pools are often chosen in Portugal when there has been recent ground movement ie. a new build property, as they have more 'give' than it's concrete counterpart.

Fibreglass pools have a gel coating, which gives them their colour and smooth surface. This surface can age and fade with time, but can be re-coated in situ. There are many companies throughout Portugal who manufacturer the 'shells' and they can be contacted directly.

Pros and Cons of a Pre-fabricated Swimming Pool

Fibreglass pools can be easier to clean, maintain the water temperature slightly better than a concrete pool; they do not rip or tear like liner pools and they suffer less from water absorption. However fibreglass swimming pools do have a tendency to crack and fade over time.
