Last updated on January 6, 2023 by Sozo Staff Leave a Comment

You might not be aware of the variety of possibilities available if you’re thinking about the construction material options for your next backyard pool! While concrete and fiberglass are tried-and-true materials that shouldn’t be disregarded, they’re not the only options. We looked at two additional material choices available in the pool business today in our first post on the subject: aluminum and stainless steel.

We’ll now take a closer look at a couple more options that might have the ideal combination of qualities to make them the perfect option for your yard and individual taste.

Ceramic

Ceramics come in a variety of forms depending on its intended application, but the one used for swimming pools is a composite made up to over 50% of silica. (Many varieties of ceramic don’t have the brittleness that many people associate with the substance, and this is undoubtedly true of the sort of ceramic used in swimming pools.) The ceramic core provides both strength and water resistance, but because they are prefabricated as a single piece, these types of swimming pools are comparable to fiberglass in that they cannot be customized to the extent that certain other materials can.

Stone

Not all of today’s current designs include a distinctly sleek, Contemporary design aesthetic, as you are surely already aware. Not only are earthy and rustic textures fashionable, but they can also help some homes and settings blend in better. When using a variety of tile and stone types, the sky is the limit. This material definitely has longevity in its favor, an homage to ancient cultures when stone constructions were used for palaces and other structures.

Glass

Glass, which is at the other end of the artistic spectrum from stone, is a preferred material for people who prefer a distinctly Modern aesthetic. Glass’ transparency makes it possible to display cutting-edge tile work and draw attention to the surroundings. Since glass pool walls provide the impression that there is no separation between the water and its surroundings, they can also be referred to as “open-top windows.” If a glass pool is something you’re thinking about, you should look for a pool provider that specializes in this unusual material.

Have you discovered anything new today? Learning about your options never hurts. We examined two more conventionally used materials, fiberglass and concrete, as well as five more contemporary materials (glass, stone, ceramic, stainless steel, and aluminum). No matter if you choose to go with tried-and-true pool materials or become daring and attempt something you’ve never even seen before, your new swimming pool will undoubtedly provide you with countless hours of entertainment, exercise, and other advantages you didn’t even know you needed.
