The Pool Building Process

1.

Consultation and Planning

We’ll work closely with you to understand your vision and design a pool that complements your space. Once the quote has been approved, our experts will conduct preliminary work such as soil testing to assess your block and uncover any potential issues.

2.

Excavation and Foundation

Once the design is finalised and the relevant approvals have been obtained, our team will excavate the site and install the necessary structural components, including steel reinforcement and internal plumbing. This stage is crucial to ensure your pool aligns with the design and engineering specifications.

3.

Shell Construction

Using high-quality materials and advanced techniques, we’ll construct the pool shell following the installation of light fixtures and internal electrical cables. This process involves shotcreting and a curing process of around 3 to 4 weeks. This ensures a durable and long-lasting structure.

4.

Tiling and Finishing

While the shell cures, you’ll consult with our tile experts. Our expert tilers will provide personalised advice on tile choices that complement your pool, backyard, and home design. We offer a wide range of options to enhance your pool’s appearance and your backyard’s landscaping.

5.

Filtration and Plumbing

The filtration stage connects your pool to the water system and ensures proper water circulation and cleanliness. Our experienced plumbers expertly install and secure all the necessary pipework, including filtration systems. We pay meticulous attention to every detail, ensuring that the system operates flawlessly, so you can enjoy crystal-clear water and reliable performance for years to come.

6.

Internal Lining

Once the pool coping and inner tile band is complete (optional), your pool is ready for the final step – the application of a durable and stylish internal lining. We offer various options for your pool surface including tiling and pebblecrete for a luxurious finish.

Choosing the right pool size for your property will depend on a few factors: how much of your yard you want to allocate for the pool, your budget, and any specific site conditions like the position of water or sewer mains, nearby trees, or access to other parts of the block.

Here are some typical sizes for different types of pools:

  • Plunge pools: 5×3 metres, 6×4 metres, 7×3 metres
  • Family pools: 7×3 metres, 8×4 metres, 9×4 metres
  • Lap pools: 9×2.5 metres, 10×3 metres, 15×3 metres

Your decision should also take into account any landscaping plans and how the pool will integrate into the overall outdoor space.

Yes, even if you don’t have much space, it’s still possible to get a pool. We specialise in building pools in tight or challenging spaces, however its important to keep in mind that difficult sites can sometimes lead to higher costs.

The best way to find out what’s possible with your block is to book a site assessment with our team. We can assess your space, discuss design options, and provide advice before you decide to proceed.

There are three key stages in building a pool:

Pre-construction:
This includes the site assessment, design, and proposal, as well as engineering work.

Council approval:
Most pools require council approval, which we can manage for you.

Construction and finishing:
This covers everything from excavation to building the pool, installing fencing, and completing any landscaping.

While concrete pools can be more expensive upfront than fibreglass pools, they offer several key advantages:

  • Flexibility: Concrete pools can be built to any shape, size, or depth, so they are tailored to your specific space and needs. They can be constructed both in-ground and out-of-ground.
  • Customisation: Concrete allows for a range of features like steps, ledges, wet edges, or unique design elements such as beach entrances.
  • Finishes: With concrete pools, you have a wide variety of finishing options, including tiles, pebbles, quartz, and coloured render, giving your pool a more refined look.

Durability: Concrete pools are long-lasting, resistant to scratches and stains, and with correct maintenance, can last for 50 years or more.

Coping refers to the edge or flat walking surface around your pool. Natural stone, such as sandstone, limestone, or travertine, is a popular choice due to its durability and aesthetic appeal. These materials tend to last longer and resist movement better than some man-made alternatives. 

Tip: If you’re using sandstone around a saltwater pool, we suggest sealing it to prevent salt damage over time.

The ideal location for your pool will depend on several factors, including sun exposure for natural heating of the water, shelter from wind, maximum privacy, and of course how it fits within your overall backyard layout. Allowing for safe supervision of children is another top concern for many families, as well as avoiding challenging conditions such as hitting rock during excavation, sewer and water lines. 

Our team can provide recommendations based on your block’s characteristics during the planning phase.

Yes! A spa can be integrated into your pool design or installed as a separate feature. Spas are a great addition for year-round use. We can discuss the different options for heating, jet systems, and positioning to create a seamless and functional pool-spa combination.

Saltwater pools use a salt chlorinator to generate chlorine, which means less handling of chemicals and softer water that’s gentler on the skin and eyes. Chlorine pools, on the other hand, require manual addition of chlorine. 

Both options keep the water clean and safe, but many people prefer the low-maintenance appeal of saltwater systems. We can advise on the best option for your lifestyle.

Yes, a pool can be installed on a sloping block, though it may require additional engineering solutions such as retaining walls or terracing. Infinity edge pools are a popular choice for sloping sites, allowing you to make the most of any views. We have experience in designing pools for challenging landscapes and can create a plan that works with your block’s natural contours.

There are a few options for heating your pool, including solar heating, electric heat pumps, and gas heaters. Solar heating is eco-friendly and cost-effective in the long term, while heat pumps and gas heaters provide faster heating, especially in cooler months.

There are plenty of great features you can add to enhance your pool, including waterfalls, lighting, integrated spas, swim jets, and in-floor cleaning systems. You can also choose custom finishes like mosaic tiles or pebbles, as well as landscaping features such as decking or fire pits. These options allow you to create a pool that not only looks great but turns your backyard into a practical outdoor space that enhances your lifestyle.
