New Pools: Long Live Wood!

Published

on

Have you noticed wood pools popping up around your area? Wood is becoming increasingly popular for both above-ground pools and pool decks. Here are some advantages.

Remarkably Good Looking

Wood can take your pool area to the next level, breaking away from the classic look of aluminum. Its natural aesthetic can blend seamlessly into your property’s landscaping, complement your home’s siding, or create visual continuity with the trees and greenery around the pool. This timeless material brings warmth and elegance to outdoor spaces, enhancing the overall appeal of your backyard.

The Effectiveness of Treated Pine

Treated pine is harder and more resistant than cedar, making it the most popular choice among manufacturers. Here’s why treated pine stands out:

  • Durability: The wood slats are treated to remove moisture, preventing cracking and warping over time. This treatment process makes treated pine a reliable and long-lasting material.
  • Impact Resistance: Treated pine is highly resistant to impacts, which is particularly important for an in-ground pool deck where heavy foot traffic and outdoor furniture can cause wear and tear.
  • Maintenance: Treated pine requires less maintenance than untreated wood, ensuring your pool area remains beautiful with minimal effort.

Why Consider a Wood Pool?

  • Natural Beauty: The rich, natural look of wood adds an element of sophistication and tranquility to your pool area, creating a unique and inviting space.
  • Versatility: Wood can be used for various designs, whether you prefer a modern, rustic, or traditional look. It offers flexibility in terms of style and functionality.
  • Eco-Friendly: Wood is a renewable resource, and when sourced responsibly, it can be an environmentally friendly choice for your pool construction.

Conclusion

Consider opting for wood if you want a trendy pool that enhances your outdoor space’s aesthetic and functional value. Its natural beauty, durability, and versatility make it an excellent choice for above-ground pools and pool decks. Talk to a local pool contractor to explore your options and design the wooden pool area of your dreams.
