Frequently Asked Questions

At The Little Blue Pool Company, we believe that luxury should be accessible to everyone. That’s why we’ve redefined what it means to own a  swimming pool.

Luxury Redefined

Our expertly crafted pools are now available at prices that are significantly more affordable than traditional luxury options, without compromising on style or quality. While these pools are designed to fit seamlessly into smaller gardens, they also complement larger outdoor spaces, making them a versatile choice for any garden setting.

What is the difference between polyethylene and fiberglass pools?2024-10-02T08:27:32+00:00

Is safety around the pool important?2024-10-02T08:29:58+00:00
