Picking the right Fibreglass pool colour for your backyard
There was a time when all fibreglass pools looked the same.
All the same standard blue. Of course, blue is a gorgeous option as it gives the appearance of crystal clear waters but variety is the spice of life and when it comes to installing something as long-lasting as a pool, you want it to blend in as much as it stands out.
Luckily, standard blue is what we now like to call, the old days. Now, you can colour-match your perfect pool from a range of blue hues to other gorgeous shades to compliment your style and taste.
Things to consider
It’s not just about picking something that looks pretty in the showroom.
Picking the right fibreglass pool colour for your backyard
When selecting your colour, think about how much light your pool will be exposed to, the local climate, and your maintenance system.
Lighter colours may help to keep the water temperature down in hotter climates while darker shades naturally absorb more heat, making them ideal for cooler areas.
Also think about your existing outdoor environment and the style of your home.
Do you want a high-contrast colour for impact or a shade that blends with the landscape?
Some of your colour options
White marble
Cheaper than marble with the same pristine appearance, white marble offers a classic sophistication. Its clean, crisp look will suit any outdoor decor scheme adding a luxe feel.
Aqua jade
This is your perfect choice for a tranquil tropical waters ambience. This pool says, ‘Have a break. Relax.’ Great for yards that invoke peace and that sea salt vibe.
Bermuda blue
For a more dramatic statement, Bermuda blue delivers a rich and vibrant contrast tone. The depth of colour is perfect for those looking to create a striking focal point.
Coral blue
A more gentle tone is created with coral blue infusing your pool area with a sense of warmth and serenity. This option is great for a soft and natural backyard retreat.
Flat daintree or flat lagoon
Great for those seeking earthy and natural tones that will blend harmoniously with the surrounding landscape. Subtle shades reflect nature, vegetation, and calm lagoon waters.
Grey granite or ivory sand
These are ideal colour choices for a modern aesthetic that still embraces nature. Subdued neutral tones are great for a pool that feels like it was built into the natural landscape.
Mid-blue
Striking a balance between bold and soothing, this medium tone embraces calm and serenity with a bit of aesthetic punch. This is a highly versatile shade.
Starlight blue-grey, starlight pebble, or starlight sapphire
And finally, a touch of dazzle! These shimmering hues create mesmerising effects that offer a unique experience in daylight and night swimming. Great for seekers of ambience.
