Things you need to know

Pool liners provide a clean look, and they also come in a variety of designs, allowing the owner to express their style.

Cost Considerations

Vinyl liner pools can cost over $10,000 less to install than fiberglass or concrete pools. The liner must be replaced every 5-9 years, at a cost on average of $4,000, meaning they may not be cheaper in the long run.
