Fast, Functional & Family-Friendly
Fibreglass pools have come a long way in recent years. Modern fibreglass shells are engineered for strength, flexibility and UV resistance, making them a reliable choice in Australian climates. They're also less porous than concrete, which means less chemical use and easier upkeep over time.
For those who want to enjoy their pool sooner rather than later, the short installation timeframe—often just a few weeks—makes fibreglass pools especially appealing. These pools are also known for their comfort and safety.
The smooth, non-abrasive surface helps prevent scrapes and makes cleaning simple. Most models include integrated seating, steps and ledges, giving you a mix of functionality and style straight out of the box. With proper care, fibreglass pools can last decades, making them a smart long-term investment for any property.
Whether you're creating a private oasis or adding value to your home, fibreglass pools offer convenience without cutting corners.
What are the Benefits of Fibreglass Pools?
Our team at Gibson Family Pools chooses Barrier Reef fibreglass pools because of their high-quality construction. These pools are suitable for urban, rural and remote areas and we have specialist knowledge about the benefits of these fibreglass pools.
Quicker to install
Are you looking to enjoy your new pool as soon as possible? If so, a fibreglass pool is the best option as it can be installed quickly. Concrete and pebbled swimming pools can take months to install and involve lots of digging and mess, but fibreglass pools arrive ready-made and can be installed within a few weeks. This means you’ll be diving in and enjoying all the benefits of your refreshing pool before you’ve even finished inflating the pool toys!
Easy to maintain
One of the best things about a fibreglass pool is that they don’t require liner replacements or resurfacing like other pools. Determining what maintenance a fibreglass pool needs is relatively simple, Barrier Reef fibreglass pools have a silky smooth gelcoat surface which prevents dirt from sticking to the shell and helps to control against bacteria and algae. This means you’ll need fewer chemicals than a concrete pool to maintain the correct pH levels of your swimming pool. The surface is also UV and chemical resistant. This makes cleaning your pool much easier, allowing you more time to enjoy swimming.
Great for kids
If you’re worried about cuts or scrapes in the pool, a fibreglass swimming pool has a smooth surface so it isn’t abrasive on sensitive skin. This makes them great for active kids who love splashing around and jumping in! For a comfortable and relaxing pool experience, a fibreglass pool is ideal, and they look amazing too!
Energy saving
Choosing a fibreglass pool means you’ll be saving energy. They’re constructed using a high-performance, sustainable glass fibre meaning a higher temperature endurance. The material naturally insulates, so they heat faster than traditional pools. Not only will you be saving money on energy to heat a pool, but you can also feel good about owning a more environmentally-friendly pool. If you’re concerned about the cost of heating a pool, or if your pool is going to be installed in a shady location, this makes fibreglass a more affordable option in the long run.
Modern look
Fibreglass pools are available in all shapes and sizes and Barrier Reef Pools offer the latest pool designs and features, making it easy for you to select the right pool for your yard. The gelcoat surface comes in a variety of shimmer and royal colours for you to choose from. Not only will your new pool make you feel good, it’ll look good too.
Enjoy a fibreglass pool anywhere
Fibreglass pools are versatile and are suitable in a variety of different areas. Whether you’re planning a new pool in a spacious and remote location or live in a well-developed urban area or busy suburb, you can take advantage of a refreshing and modern fibreglass pool. Whatever amount of space you have available, there’s a fibreglass unit that’s the perfect fit. With pools offered in a choice of shapes and sizes, we can help you choose a pool design that complements and makes the most of the space you have.
They add value to your home
A great quality fibreglass pool could potentially add value to your home, especially if you take good care of it over time. As well as increasing the financial value, it’ll certainly add to your enjoyment of your home – a new pool is a wonderful way to make better use of your outdoor space and create an area where you can be playful and have fun or relax and completely unwind.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a fibreglass pool?
A fibreglass pool is a swimming pool built out of fiberglass. These pools offer a wide range of benefits, making them a popular choice for many homeowners.
Why are fibreglass pools better than concrete?
Fibreglass pools have several advantages over concrete ones; they’re quicker to install, lighter weight, smoother and more durable. They are also less likely to crack or leak and have a non-porous surface, making them easier to maintain and less prone to staining and algae growth.
What is the average price of a fibreglass pool?
The overall cost of your fibreglass pool will depend on factors such as the size, depth, shape, colour, quality, location and any additional features such as lighting, water features, heating, covers or spa jets. Price may also be influenced by the job’s complexity, including how accessible your yard is for installation, the ground condition and the slope of the land.
Can I pressure clean my fibreglass pool?
No, we don’t recommend pressure cleaning your fibreglass pool, as this can cause the surface to crack or delaminate.
Can fibreglass pools be heated?
Yes, fibreglass pools can be heated using a variety of methods, including electric heat pumps, gas heaters and solar heating systems. Consult one of our qualified team members to determine the best option for your specific pool and climate.
How should I clean and maintain my fibreglass pool?
Consider the following tips for cleaning and maintaining your fibreglass pool:
- Skimming: Remove any floating debris, such as leaves, insects, or twigs, using a skimmer net.
- Vacuuming: Use a vacuum to clean the floor and walls of the pool, making sure to remove any dirt, sand, or other debris.
- Brushing: Brush the walls and floor of the pool to help prevent algae growth and to remove any stubborn dirt or stains
- Chemicals: Maintain proper water chemistry by regularly testing the pH and chlorine levels and adjusting as necessary.
- Filtering: Run the pool’s filtration system regularly to help remove any debris and keep the water clean.
- Shocking: Shock the pool weekly to eliminate contaminants and maintain water clarity.
- Acid washing: If the pool looks dull or has algae growth, consider acid washing the surface to restore its appearance.
- Coating: If necessary, reapply a protective coating to the surface of the pool to help protect it from UV damage and staining.
- Cover: Invest in a pool cover to protect your water from extreme weather conditions, animals and insects and other environmental factors when not in use.
Are fibreglass or concrete pools more sustainable?
Fibreglass pools are a more sustainable alternative to concrete pools, as they require less energy and resources to produce and install, and they have a longer lifespan. Additionally, many fibreglass pool manufacturers offer eco-friendly options, such as the use of recycled materials in the production process and energy-efficient pumps and heating systems. Choosing a fibreglass pool also means you’ll be saving energy, as they’re constructed using a high-performance, sustainable glass fibre, meaning a higher temperature endurance. The material naturally insulates, so they heat faster than traditional pools.
