Vinyl liner pools are popular for their affordability, but they come with recurring costs and frustrations:


  • Liners typically need replacement every 5–10 years.
  • Vulnerable to punctures, tears, and fading
  • Susceptible to algae growth and staining
  • Limited design flexibility and customization
  • Costly water loss from leaks and liner failures


Fiberglass offers a permanent solution that eliminates these issues. By converting your vinyl liner pool to fiberglass, you gain:


  • A seamless, non-porous surface
  • Superior durability and resistance to damage
  • Reduced maintenance and chemical usage
  • A sleek, modern appearance
  • Long-term cost savings


Our Advanced-Glass system transforms your pool into a worry-free retreat that performs beautifully for decades.

  • Fast and Efficient: Most conversions are completed in just a few days.
  • Cost-Effective: Offers a permanent upgrade at a fraction of the cost of other “permanent” pool solutions.

  • Offers endless design possibilities with colors, patterns, and textures
  • Complements landscaping and outdoor décor
