A better pool starts with a smarter material — strong, smooth, and made to last.
Century Pools specialises in fibreglass because it offers unbeatable value, strength, and ease—for the Australian climate and the way Australians live.
Faster Installation, Less Disruption
One of the greatest advantages of fibreglass pools is how quickly they can be installed. Unlike concrete pools—which can take months to complete and require curing time—our fibreglass shells are manufactured off-site and delivered ready to install. In many cases, excavation to swimming can take as little as two to three weeks. That means less time spent dealing with heavy machinery in your backyard, and more time enjoying your new pool with friends and family.
Because the shell arrives fully formed, there’s no need for weather delays or unpredictable construction schedules. This streamlined process not only saves time, but also reduces the risk of cost blowouts and mid-project complications.
Low Maintenance & Smooth Finish
Fibreglass pools are incredibly easy to maintain thanks to their smooth, non-porous surface. Unlike concrete, which can harbour algae and require frequent resurfacing or acid washing, fibreglass resists algae growth and reduces chemical usage. That means fewer cleaning chores and a more stable water balance—ideal for busy families who want to spend time swimming, not scrubbing.
The gelcoat surface also feels comfortable underfoot and along the pool walls—no abrasive or sharp areas to cause scrapes, which is especially important for children. It’s also UV resistant, helping the colour stay rich and vibrant, even in full sun.
Built for Australian Conditions
Fibreglass pools are highly flexible, which gives them an edge in regions with shifting soils, such as many parts of Queensland. Unlike rigid concrete structures that can crack under pressure, fibreglass pools have the ability to flex slightly without compromising their structural integrity. This makes them ideal for Australia’s diverse climate and varied ground conditions.
Century Pools goes a step further by reinforcing every shell with multi-layer composite technology. Our pools are engineered to withstand temperature extremes, ground movement, and chemical exposure, offering a long-lasting solution that doesn’t require constant repairs or resurfacing.
Cost-Effective Over Time
While the initial cost of a fibreglass pool may be comparable to concrete, the long-term savings are substantial. With fewer maintenance requirements, no need for resurfacing, lower chemical usage, and reduced filtration needs, fibreglass pools are more economical to own. They also hold their aesthetic appeal longer, helping maintain your property value.
Consistent, High-Quality Results
Because fibreglass pools are built in a factory setting, you know exactly what you’re getting—precision-moulded designs, colour consistency, and proven durability. Every Century Pools shell is manufactured under strict quality control, ensuring each customer receives a flawless product.
In short, fibreglass pools offer speed, style, safety, and simplicity. At Century Pools, we’ve chosen to specialise in fibreglass because it allows us to deliver a better pool—and a better pool experience—to every Australian homeowner we serve.
