Last Updated: December 30th, 2025
If you live in the Sparks or Reno area, you know that warm-weather months are precious—and short. The last thing any homeowner wants is to spend an entire summer waiting for a pool construction project to wrap up. That’s exactly why more Northern Nevada families are choosing fiberglass pools from Sun Leisure Pools & Spas, the fastest-growing pool option in the region.
While traditional concrete or gunite pools can take months to complete, our streamlined fiberglass installation process often takes as little as two weeks from start to finish. Yes—two weeks. That means you get to enjoy your new backyard oasis sooner, witho ut the construction nightmare.
Below, we break down why fiberglass pools are installed so quickly, how they compare to gunite construction in Nevada’s climate, and the exact step-by-step process our Sun Leisure team follows to deliver fast, flawless results.

Fiberglass vs. Gunite and Concrete: Why Northern Nevada Homeowners Choose the Faster Option
Here in Sparks and the surrounding high-desert climate, the construction season is limited. Gunite and concrete pools—which require extensive on-site building, subcontractors, and weeks of curing—often run into delays from:
- fluctuating temperatures
- unpredictable spring winds
- material scheduling
- multiple trade crews
As a result, gunite and concrete pool projects in Northern Nevada typically stretch to about two months.
Fiberglass pools, however, completely change the timeline. Because the shell is manufactured off-site using a precision mold, the pool arrives ready to install, enabling Sun Leisure Pools & Spas to complete most projects in around two weeks.

What Makes Fiberglass Pools So Fast to Install?
At Sun Leisure Pools & Spas, speed doesn’t just mean fast—it means efficient, organized, and professionally streamlined. Here’s why our fiberglass installations outpace every concrete alternative:
1. Pre-Made, Precision Molded Pool Shells
The entire structure of your pool is fabricated before it ever reaches your property. No building forms, no curing, no delays. When installation begins, the pool is ready to place—saving you weeks of construction time.
2. One Trusted Local Team From Start to Finish
Unlike gunite and concrete builds, which require multiple subcontractors (steel, plaster, gunite crews, tile installers, etc.), Sun Leisure handles everything with one specialized team. This eliminates scheduling headaches and keeps your project on track.
3. Minimal Weather-Dependent Construction
Northern Nevada’s climate can be tough on long-term construction projects. With fiberglass, nearly all major construction is done indoors at the manufacturing facility—meaning fewer weather delays for Sparks homeowners.
4. No Curing Time or Startup Lag
Gunite and concrete need weeks to cure before plastering and filling can begin. Fiberglass pools are ready to fill the day they’re installed, drastically reducing downtime.
The Sun Leisure 2-Week Installation Timeline: A Step-by-Step Guide for Sparks, Reno, and Northern Nevada Homeowners
Here’s what your fiberglass pool installation typically looks like with Sun Leisure Pools & Spas—and how long each step usually takes.
1. Excavation & Site Prep
Our crew measures, digs, and prepares your backyard for the exact shape of your fiberglass shell. Sparks soil conditions—from compact clay to rocky layers—are handled with local expertise.
2. Base Compaction and Leveling
We create a perfectly level sand base to support the pool shell. This ensures long-term stability despite Northern Nevada’s seasonal ground movement.
3. Crane Placement of the Pool Shell
The fiberglass pool is delivered and craned directly into the excavated area. This is one of the most exciting moments—and it happens fast.
4. Backfilling and Water Filling
As the pool is filled with water, we simultaneously backfill the exterior for structural balance and stability.
5. Plumbing, Equipment Setup & Rough Grading
Our team installs all plumbing lines, hook-ups, and filtration equipment, then shapes the surrounding area for future decking or landscaping.
Total Time: Roughly 2 Weeks
Many Sparks and Reno-area homeowners are swimming in their pool within days of shell delivery—something impossible with traditional concrete builds.
