Swimming pools

I want a pool in my garden. Where do I start?

• You do not need to have chosen a size or system. Start with your district, the approximate space available and how your family plans to use the pool.
• Garden photographs and an existing plan can support an initial conversation, but do not replace an on-site assessment or project design.
• Consider maintenance and operating needs as well as construction. Compare the pool, landscaping, equipment and maintenance scope separately.

Which system, for whom?

• Concrete skimmer: the most economical concrete system and the easiest to maintain; water sits 10 cm below the edge. First choice for a family pool on flat ground.
• Concrete overflow: water sits level with the edge and flows into a channel and balance tank; the surface is skimmed continuously and you get the infinity look. For sloping sites with a view; roughly a third more in budget.
• Steel panel and fibreglass: built in one to three weeks, in standard sizes; correct ground preparation is essential. For speed and a controlled budget.
• Natural pond: chemical-free, plant-filtered swimming pond. Different maintenance, different look.

What we do

• Soil survey and site measurement; groundwater and rock check.
• Structural design, mechanical scheme and hydraulic calculation.
• Excavation, concrete shell, double waterproofing, finish.
• Filtration, disinfection (chlorine, salt, UV), heating, lighting.
• Commissioning, water balance, user training, handover file.
• Optional seasonal maintenance contract: the team that built it maintains it.
