Keep in mind that the materials will be in contact with water that contains chlorine and acid.  There are 3 common types of materials to use for your pool, concrete, Vinyl and fibreglass. Each have their own pros and cons that will suite different families needs. Concrete pools give buyers the option of making their pool whatever shape size and depth they would like, but they would have to do more pool maintenance compared to others. Fibreglass is limited to 5 meters wide when buiding a pool, but they are beneficial as well because it is non-porous menaing there will be less algae problems. This is the same as Vinyl which is also non-porous so money is saved on chemicals, Vinyl is also beneficial as there is no limit to how you would want your pool designed. Although Vinyl is known to be prone to breaking and looses value after 4 years.
