Which is better in Delaware or Pennsylvania?

Neither is automatically better. Gunite can take any shape and join a custom terrace. Fiberglass is a manufactured shell with a different edge and timeline. The lot and the house decide.

Does fiberglass always go in faster?

The shell can set faster once the hole is right. The terrace, permits, and landscape still follow the same local calendar. A leftover patio still looks delivered.

Do you work with Clark’s Pools on either type?

On many pool projects, yes. The constant is one conversation so you are not buying a shell and hoping the patio agrees later.
