Vinyl pools are generally "pretty good"! Tens of thousands of people have vinyl-lined pools (both above and below ground) and enjoy them completely. There are pros and cons of both vinyl and gunnite lined pools. I would suggest that you talk to several pool builders and pool owners of each kind to get an idea of the relative merits of both.
I have a vinyl pool and wouldn't have any other. The bottom is so soft on your feet. The kids can play in the pool for hours and hours and have no problem with their feet. It is slightly less expensive to build and to replace the liner (maybe about 10 years) is not nearly as expensive as replastering/repairing gunnite. The only reason I see that people I know get gunnite is there seems to be more prestige to it than vinyl. One woman said to me once about one of her neighbors that had gunnite, "Oh she has a real pool". Don't listen to her, vinyl is great, my liner is beautiful and it's less expensive.
Live in Texas and have had inground vinyl pool for 19 years - have replaced liner twice - cost about $ 1500 8 years ago to replace. Now need some work done on coping (pulling loose)and fiberglass steps need refurbishing. If I can find someone to do repairs at reasonable cost will keep pool. Received quote of $30 + a few days ago to replace with gunite pool. Have enjoyed our vinyl pool. We winterize and shut it down in Sept and open back up May or June and therefore do not have the cost of running the pump during that time. The water is crystal clear when we remove the cover to reopen.
My brother has owned a vinyl pool for 20 years and never had any problem with it. It is just as beautiful as any "supposedly real" pool. I've only had my liner for 4 years and it's doing quite well.
Garrett Vinyl Pools in Houston does a good job and has been around since the 70's.
Some of this is opinion (thus subjective) and some depends on some variables like location and what features you want. In areas that have winter and freezing weather typically vinyl lined pools tend to be more popular as the freezing can cause concrete to crack over a few season and cause costly repairs. There are some options, like vanishing edges, that are easier (and cheaper) to do with a concrete pool that make that a better option for some.
no. they don't. Nightmares are dreams that people are scared of so i don't think they taste good!
The best indoor sweepers for vinyl I used was Swiffer floor duster. It's easy to use and had pretty good result. http://www.apartmenttherapy.com/ol-images/Chicago/uploads/053107swiffer.jpg
There is no specific word in the English language for a person who only has nightmares with no good dreams.
you go to scary stories for beginners and find stories that wont give you nightmares. Good luck i get nightmares 2:)
try junkyspot.com it's pretty good. I got couple of my dolls from there.
Generally yes vinyl is not good for the environment. Though it depends on the type of vinyl how bad it is and whether it can be recycled.
Well usual it means that something good is about to happen, you may think otherwise but often people having nightmares is a way of sensing good fortune.
There are several good companies for fiberglass pools. I would go with Blue Hawaiian Fiberglass Pools.
