Are you wanting a concrete pool? You have the option of concrete bottom w/ stainless steel walls, concrete bottom w/ fiberglass walls, or floor and walls concrete. If you go with concrete (gunite) walls and floor, then you need to determine the finish: plaster, painted, tiled, aggregate. what region are you from? Have you considered a vinyl lined pool? (Polymer or steel walls with a pool crete bottom). Vinyl IG's are much less expensive, and a whole lot less maintenance and cosly repairs down the road. A concrete pool is going to initially cost 3-4X the cost of a vinyl IG of the same size.
