In Canada, building an inground pool is more than a backyard upgrade, it’s an investment in your lifestyle, property, and peace of mind. But if you're thinking all pools are built the same, think again.
As an informed Canadian consumer, it can be difficult to navigate the world of inground pool materials and systems. Some are known for their affordability, some for their ease and speed of the installation, and others for their durability. In the end, when purchasing anything, we all want the same thing: a quality, long-lasting product that justifies the investment.
When you're putting something permanent in the ground, something that's meant to last for decades, it only makes sense to choose the most solid, time-tested material available: le concrete.
It’s what we trust for foundations, bridges, arenas, and the infrastructure that keeps our communities standing strong. Concrete isn’t just solid, it’s dependable, it’s proven, and when used the right way, it offers a peace of mind no other material can deliver.
SolidPool is redefining what it means to own a concrete pool. It combines the strength of reinforced concrete and the flexibility of modern modular construction. Once installed, the structure is ready to receive a vinyl liner, making concrete pools more accessible and affordable than ever.
Let’s break down what makes SolidPool different from the ground up.
A structure is only as strong as its base. And the same goes for pools.
Every SolidPool starts with a 6-inch thick, reinforced concrete slab, a stable, level foundation designed to withstand Canada’s harsh freeze-thaw cycles, shifting soil, and seasonal extremes. Unlike pools built on gravel, sand, or minimal footings, SolidPool’s slab provides the perfect anchor for long-lasting performance and stability. When you want something to last, you start strong, and SolidPool does just that.
What makes SolidPool truly revolutionary are its modular building blocks. Designed for smart assembly and precision alignment, these innovative blocks interlock to form a pool wall that is both customizable and incredibly strong.
The walls are 6 inches thick and reinforced with rebar, then filled entirely with concrete, creating a solid, self-supporting wall structure with no compromise on integrity. The concrete is even protected by the polypropylene block that serves as permanent formwork. It’s a high-performance approach that leaves other building systems behind.
Since SolidPool structures are entirely self-supporting, the pool can be installed inground, above ground, or anywhere in between. This can lead to significant cost savings for properties that would otherwise require expensive retaining walls or elevation modifications. SolidPool allows designers and builders to work with the existing land, creating stunning multi-level designs that elevate the entire backyard.
Here’s where SolidPool changes the game: despite its robust concrete core, SolidPool is designed to finish with a liner, offering homeowners the best of both worlds.
Traditional concrete pools require expensive waterproofing coatings and ongoing maintenance that can add up quickly. SolidPool eliminates that by combining a true concrete structure with an easy-to-maintain, visually clean vinyl liner finish, bringing down both the cost and complexity.
The result? A genuine concrete pool, finally accessible to families across Canada.
SolidPool is built to last, season after season, decade after decade. It literally cannot rust, it's resistant to shifting, and warping, ensuring that your investment remains a source of joy, not frustration.
And should you ever sell your home, a well-constructed concrete pool can add serious resale value.
However, it's essential to consider factors like structural condition, some buyers may view a pool as a liability if it’s deteriorating or poorly maintained. Not to mention that removing a problematic inground pool is very costly.
With SolidPool, you won’t be worrying about structural failures or expensive repairs down the road, because you built it right from the start. Just remember to proudly mention that it’s a SolidPool.
An inground pool is much more than a hole in the ground, it’s a lifestyle investment. With all the energy that goes into building your dream backyard, make sure you take the time to weigh the true cost of building anything less than the best.
SolidPool is more than just a pool—it’s a smarter way to build, and the new standard in backyard living.
