FIBERGLASS POOL STYLES

Find the Right Fiberglass Pool for Your Backyard

Fiberglass pools come in a range of shapes, sizes and layouts. The right choice depends on your property, how you plan to use the pool and how it fits with the rest of your backyard.

CHOOSING THE RIGHT POOL

Start With How You Want to Use Your Backyard

The right fiberglass pool is not just about size. Think about how you want to use the space—swimming, entertaining, relaxing, family time or a combination of all four. Your property layout, access, setbacks and surrounding patio space will also help determine which pool styles make the most sense.

✓ Available backyard space
✓ How you plan to use the pool
✓ Preferred depth, entry and seating options
✓ How the pool will connect with the surrounding patio and outdoor living area

✓ Built-in benches and seating
✓ Tanning ledges or lounging areas
✓ Different depth profiles
✓ Swim space versus relaxation space
✓ Placement of lighting and water features

FIT THE POOL TO THE PROPERTY

Choosing the Right Size for Your Backyard

A larger pool is not always the better choice. The best layout leaves enough room for circulation, patio space, seating and the other features you want to include around the pool.

✓ Property dimensions and setbacks
✓ Access for installation
✓ Desired patio and entertaining space
✓ Family use and swimming needs
✓ Future outdoor living features
✓ Overall balance of pool and backyard

COMMON QUESTIONS

Choosing a Fiberglass Pool Style

What size fiberglass pool should I choose?

The best size depends on your property, setbacks, access, how you plan to use the pool and how much patio or outdoor living space you want to preserve around it. A 12' × 24' pool, or something similar in size, is one of the most common choices for our projects because it gives homeowners a good balance of swim space and room around the pool.

Are rectangular pools better than freeform pools?

Neither is automatically better, but rectangular pools are often the more cost-efficient choice. Freeform pools can cost more to install because of the additional layout complexity and the extra coping waste created by the curved shape. Rectangular pools also tend to make better use of available swim space and are easier to integrate with surrounding interlock.

Can a fiberglass pool fit in a smaller backyard?

Yes. Compact and plunge pool options can work well on smaller properties, provided there is suitable access and enough space to meet setback and installation requirements.

Can Earthworks help me choose the right pool model?

Yes. We can review your property, priorities and overall backyard plan to help narrow down pool shapes and sizes that make sense for the space.
