Swimming Pool Steps

The Incredible Versatility of “Vinyl Over” Step Technology

One of the hottest trends in swimming pool design today is the use of “vinyl over” technology. In particular, vinyl over steps (VOS) are soaring in popularity. Homeowners who were growing tired of their older pool without steps, VOS now gives them the ability to produce whatever form and function comes to mind — whether it’s their idea or input from a professional pool designer. VOS can be installed without having to alter your existing deck!

A VOS approach can also be used with design features like:

Tanning ledges
Benches
Various step designs and sizes

Benefits of Vinyl Over Steps

There are many advantages to using the vinyl over technique for your swimming pool steps. They allow for an almost unlimited range of customization options, all of which produce a beautiful, uninterrupted liner finish. The vinyl used in these applications is exceptionally strong and durable, providing years and years of use. And given that VOS projects can be surprisingly affordable and can enhance the appeal of your pool, they deliver outstanding value.

The Ever-Evolving Pool

One of the great things about VO updates or additions is that they can be made at any time. No need to worry that you’ll realize after the fact that your initial pool design didn’t include the kind of steps that make sense for your family. You can always design and implement changes. This allows your pool to evolve as your needs evolve — from having small kids at home, to being an empty nester, to having aging parents move in with you.

Great Grip With Tread-Tex

Tread-Tex is an innovative material that provides enhanced traction. Especially beneficial on steps, it produces reassuring grip to people entering or exiting the pool. While it can’t guarantee no slips, when it comes to the confidence of pool users, Tread-Tex delivers.
