Transform Your Columbia Backyard with a Premium Fiberglass Pool
Built for the Heart of South Carolina
Homeowners throughout Columbia, Lexington, and the Midlands are redefining backyard living with the elegance and longevity of fiberglass. Each Rainforest Pool is meticulously crafted in our Orlando, Florida manufacturing facility, where precision molds and strict quality control ensure a flawless finish before it ever reaches your property. The result — a pool that looks stunning, performs beautifully, and lasts for generations.

Our fiberglass pools are built to thrive in these conditions — resistant to cracking, expansion, and fading. The smooth, non-porous gelcoat surface prevents algae and staining, keeping your water clear and your maintenance simple all year long.

FAQs: Fiberglass Pools in Columbia & Central South Carolina
How much does a fiberglass pool cost in the Columbia and Midlands area?
Expect turnkey projects from $55,000 to $155,000 in Central South Carolina.
Final pricing depends on pool size, features (tanning ledge, spa, lighting), yard access, soil conditions, and decking materials — but fiberglass consistently offers lower lifetime maintenance costs than concrete or vinyl.
How long does installation take in Columbia SC?
Most installations in the Midlands region are completed in 2–4 weeks.
Because each shell is pre-built in our Florida facility, installation moves quickly through excavation, placement, plumbing, and decking compared to traditional gunite pools.
Will a fiberglass pool hold up to Midlands clay soils and hot summers?
Yes — our composite structure and non-porous gelcoat thrive in South Carolina’s challenging conditions.
The flexible shell adjusts naturally with soil movement while resisting cracks, fading, and surface wear caused by the region’s heat and humidity.

Yes — Rainforest Pools serves a 10-county Central South Carolina region.

Can you work with HOAs and tight backyard access in subdivisions?
Yes — our installers routinely manage HOA approvals, property setbacks, and limited-access sites.

Absolutely — our local crews install regularly around Lake Murray and the Saluda River.
We account for slope, drainage, and soil conditions to keep your pool perfectly level and stable for decades.

Very little — the smooth gelcoat surface resists algae and staining.
You’ll use fewer chemicals, spend less time cleaning, and enjoy sparkling clear water all year long with only minimal upkeep.
Can I customize the pool for my lot and style?
Absolutely — choose from multiple shapes, tanning ledges, benches, and integrated spas.
Homeowners in the Columbia area often select models like the Belize, Brasilia, Cali Cove, Colombian Beach, and Neblina for their compact footprints and stylish designs
Do I need to winterize my fiberglass pool in the Midlands?
Many Central SC homeowners keep their pools open year-round.
