Marquee Pools

Fiberglass Pools

By Clementina Verge

What’s better than a private water oasis for relaxation, exercise, and happy summer memories? One that involves the quickest installation, least maintenance, and lowest long-term costs possible. The answer is fiberglass pools, expertly installed by Marquee Pools & Service Inc., an established company with a longstanding record of design and execution.

“There is no replacing liners, no dealing with broken tiles,” explains company founder and owner Jim Vadas. “Between the speed of installation and the cost of ownership, fiberglass pools hands down cannot be beat.”

Vadas speaks from decades of hands-on experience. Since 1987, his Fairfield-based company has installed thousands of pools, including more than 150 fiberglass pools in recent years. Having acquired a loyal customer base throughout Southern Connecticut, Vadas is now expanding into Litchfield County, bringing an outstanding reputation in the industry for his knowledge, capabilities, and work ethic.

Licensed in Connecticut as a licensed swimming pool builder, a licensed SP1 (plumbing and piping) contractor, as well as a licensed home improvement contractor, Vadas brings with him a staff of timely, courteous, and capable employees—many of whom have been with the company since its inception. Additionally, his established industry relationships help speed up the pool installation process.

Increasingly in demand, backyard pools have been difficult to secure in recent years, sometimes taking months to complete. Not so for Marquee customers. 

“From the moment a fiberglass pool is placed in the ground, we can have it filled with water and ready for swimming in a couple of days,” Vadas assures. The complete process takes four to six weeks including masonry work.

Marquee Pools is a certified dealer for Latham Pools—the pinnacle in the fiberglass pool industry. As a Latham Grand Dealer, Marquee offers their full line of fiberglass pools, spas, and tanning ledges—available in an extensive line of shapes, models, and colors. 

From freeform designs that blend seamlessly into nature-oriented landscaping, to geometrical shapes that complement classical architecture—options abound, matching unique styles and backyards. Coupled with a Latham power cover, your fiberglass pool will require less heating, fewer chemicals, and provide the highest level of safety and convenience—all with the flip of a switch.

“Our most requested pools to date are the rectangle pools with the power cover option. The heat saving benefit and safety component are what makes it so attractive to customers,” says Vadas. Backed by a lifetime structural warranty, fiberglass pools mean swimming in hassle-free comfort and luxury for decades. It is the industry’s most cost-effective pool that can be owned. When the project is complete and the Marquee trucks back away, the team remains just a phone call away. The company strives to establish long-term customer relationships, offering exclusive, all-inclusive seasonal contracts. Pool owners can rest easy knowing the capable and committed team at Marquee Pools & Service, Inc. stands behind their investment. —marqueepools.com
