Why You Should Consider a Fiberglass Inground Pool for Your Oyster Bay, NY Backyard
From pool parties with family and friends to cooling off and unwinding after a long day of work, there’s nothing better than a backyard swimming pool. Not only will it provide endless hours of entertainment and relaxation, but a swimming pool can also increase the value of your Nassau County property.
Now might be the perfect time to invest in your Oyster Bay, NY inground pool installation. Before you contact a company, decide what kind of pool is best for your needs. If you’re looking for the top benefits and reasons to wow your guests, then consider installing a fiberglass inground pool.
Quick Installation
Fiberglass inground pools are easier to install and less expensive than other types of pools. You’ll be swimming in your backyard in no time with a reputable provider who can have the job done in three to six weeks, on average.
Minimal Maintenance
With a fiberglass pool, you’ll spend less time cleaning and more time playing in your pool. Vinyl liner and gunite pools are two common types of residential pools with lots of maintenance (and frustrations).
Gentler on the Skin
If you’ve ever jumped into a gunite pool and noticed that your feet, knees, hands, and even your elbows are scuffed up when you get out? The rough concrete can do a real number on your skin and can seriously detract from the joy that a pool is supposed to bring. A fiberglass inground pool is much easier on your skin, as it’s completely smooth from top to bottom. If bloody toes and fingers don’t sound appealing, go for the cool new option.
Compatible with Salt Chlorine Generators
Salt chlorine generators have become extremely popular, as these devices are a low-maintenance way to maintain the cleanliness of a pool. The downside, however, is that these generators are hard on concrete and metal, so they aren’t ideal for steel vinyl liner and gunite pools. Fortunately, fiberglass inground pools and salt chlorine generators go hand-in-hand, further reducing the amount of time you’ll need to spend maintaining your Nassau County swimming pool.
Low Cost
Vinyl liner replacement, acid washing, and resurfacing aren’t cheap. When you calculate the cost over the lifespan of your pool, it’s fairly expensive. With a fiberglass in-ground pool, you’ll avoid these costs altogether and have a much more affordable backyard swimming plan – which just means that you’re going to enjoy it for years to come.
Customizable, Aesthetically Pleasing Design
Fiberglass inground pools are incredibly versatile. They come in an assortment of shapes, sizes and styles to suit virtually any backyard space or aesthetic—from simple pool designs with a water feature, stone accents and a single slide to elaborate water parks with built-in seats, multi-level slides and ledges. When you choose a fiberglass pool for your yard, you can create a truly one-of-a-kind design that reflects your unique tastes and style.
The Town of Oyster Bay is the easternmost of the three towns which make up Nassau County, New York, in the United States. Part of the New York metropolitan area, it is the only town in Nassau County to extend from the North Shore to the South Shore of Long Island. As of the 2010 census, it had a population of 293,214.
Succeeding cultures of indigenous peoples had lived in the area for thousands of years. At the time of European contact, the Lenape (Delaware) nation inhabited western Long Island. By 1600 the band inhabiting the local area was called the Matinecock after their location, but they were Lenape people.
Following European colonization, the area became part of the colony of New Netherland. In 1639, the Dutch West India Company made its first purchase of land on Long Island from the local Native Americans. The English also had colonies on Long Island at this time. The Dutch did not dispute English claims to what is now Suffolk County, but when settlers from New England arrived in (present-day) Oyster Bay in 1640, they were soon arrested as part of a boundary dispute. In 1643, Englishmen purchased land in the present-day town of Hempstead from the Indians that included land purchased by the Dutch in 1639. Nevertheless, in 1644, the Dutch director granted a patent for Hempstead to the English.
The Dutch also granted other English settlements in Flushing, Newtown, and Jamaica. In 1650, the Treaty of Hartford established a boundary between Dutch and English claims at “Oysterbay”, by which the Dutch meant present-day Cold Spring Harbor (to the east) and the English meant all of the water connected to present-day Oyster Bay Harbor. Meanwhile, the government of England came under the control of Oliver Cromwell as a republic, and smugglers took advantage of the unresolved border dispute. In 1653, English settlers made their first purchase of land in Oyster Bay from the local Matinecock tribe, though there were already some rogue English settlements there. For this purchase, the English settlers paid to the Native American Moheness (aka Assiapum), “six kettles, six fathoms of wampum, six hoes, six hatchets, three pairs of stockings, thirty awl-blades or muxes, twenty knives, three shirts and as much Peague as will amount to four pounds sterling.” The monarchy was restored in England in 1660, and in 1664 King Charles gave Long Island (and much else) to his brother James, leading to the Dutch relinquishing control of all of New Amsterdam.
