Clark Griswold meant well when he decided to surprise his family with a pool for Christmas. He even put down a deposit, fully expecting that company bonus to roll in. If only he had planned a little earlier.
If you’ve got dreams of family cannonballs, backyard BBQs or peaceful floating under the stars, now’s the time to start planning your 2026 inground pool project. At Elko Spas, Billiards and Pools, we carry top-quality fiberglass pool brands like Alaglas and Imagine Pools, giving you plenty of options that are stylish, durable and easy to maintain.
Why Planning Your Inground Pool Now Makes All the Difference
Installing a pool isn’t a one-day job. It takes time to plan the layout, choose the right size and shape, get permits and secure the best installers. Winter is the perfect season to get ahead of the spring and summer rush.
Imagine how great it’ll feel to be soaking in your new pool by next summer while everyone else is still waiting for quotes. You’ll beat the busy season, get more design attention and start the new year with a plan in motion.
Inground Pool Options That Look as Good as They Perform
We proudly carry Alaglas Pools, known for their advanced gelcoat finish that resists staining and fading over time. They’re made in the USA and built to last with stunning designs like the Oceanside or the Caribbean.
Imagine Pools also delivers top-of-the-line fiberglass pools with beautiful finishes, tanning ledges and sleek shapes. Whether you want a pool made for family fun or one that turns your backyard into a luxury retreat, Imagine Pools has a model to match.
Both brands offer options that pair perfectly with spas, water features and lighting for that full Clark Griswold dream… without the stress.
