The lifespan of concrete pools is typically around 50 years or more, depending on maintenance and environmental factors.

Yes, a concrete pool is generally more expensive than a fibreglass pool. This is due to the higher costs associated with their construction, customisation options, and installation time. However, concrete pools last longer, by at least 20 years.

1. Customisation: You can customise the shape, size, depth, and overall style to fit your specific space and aesthetic preferences.
2. Durability: When properly maintained, they can last for decades, making them a lasting investment.
3. Aesthetic Appeal: Pools made from concrete can be finished with a variety of materials, like tiles, pebbles, or paint, allowing for a higher degree of aesthetic customisation.
4. Depth and Size Variability: Unlike pre-moulded fibreglass pools, concrete can be constructed to any depth, making them suitable for a range of activities, from diving to lap swimming.
5. Adds Value to Property: Due to their durability and aesthetic appeal, they can add significant value to your home.

Maintenance is more challenging compared to other pool design types, like those constructed of fibreglass or vinyl liner. Here are a few reasons why:

1. Surface Porosity: Concrete is a porous material, which can make it more susceptible to algae growth. 
2. Chemical Balance: Keeping the chemical balance is crucial. Fluctuations in pH and alkalinity levels can lead to faster deterioration of the surface.
3. Resurfacing Needs: The plaster coating can wear down, necessitating a new coat every 10 to 15 years, depending on the pool's condition and maintenance.
4. Calcium Build-Up: They can also experience calcium build-up, which can be difficult to remove and might require professional cleaning services.

These challenges can be effectively managed with regular maintenance, ensuring the longevity and aesthetic appeal of your beautiful family pool.

The construction time for a concrete swimming pool by Norfolk Pools typically takes 12 weeks, depending on the complexity of the design and site-specific factors.

Tiling a swimming pool is a popular choice due to several benefits:

1. Durability: Tiles are extremely durable and resistant to wear, making them a long-lasting option.
2. Aesthetics: Tiles offer a wide range of colours, patterns, and designs, allowing for a high degree of customisation.
3. Smooth Surface: Tiles provide a smooth, comfortable consistency, which is pleasant for swimmers.
4. Ease of Cleaning: They are generally easier to clean and less prone to algae growth.
