Types Of Pools

Concrete

We’ll let you in on a secret – all of our pools are made from concrete, no matter what style you choose! This is because concrete is the superior choice of material for pool construction, lasting much longer than their fibreglass counterparts.

Mineral

Mineral pools look very similar to a standard pool, with a key difference.

The water is infused with a rich blend of magnesium and potassium salts to offer added health and relaxation benefits to your pool.

Plunge

Plunge Pools are great options for smaller spaces or if you want to make a cold plunge part of your regular self-care regimen. You can also combine your plunge pool with mineral pool technology for even more health benefits.

Placidity

Our innovative EcoSplash technology offers the ability to have the serenity of a natural water pool in your home. Placidity Pools use natures gifts to filter your water and keep it clean, meaning you’ll never need to add chemicals.

Commercial

We’re one of the most experienced pool construction companies in Far North Queensland and are capable of delivering large, complex projects on time and on budget and we can assistance and advice every step of the way.

The Process

We start with a detailed design consultation and will work with you to deliver exactly what you are looking for.

Once the paperwork is completed – contract, engineering plans, Form 15, sewer and site plan – we can then submit for council approval and engage a building certifier.

Once approved we will arrange a start date and be on site at 8am on day 1 to mark the area and start the excavation. We really appreciate it if you can be home for this bit as there’s no going back once the hole starts to be dug!

Once the site is ready, the concrete shell will be formed in place before being left to cure for approximately 4 weeks.

Coping and tiling will be the next bit, and while we do that you can get started on organising your fencing – either through us or through a 3rd party.

You’ll also need to make sure that the Electrical components for powering and safely earthing your filtration unit is in place before we can install them.

Next, we finalise the details of your pool such as pebbling. A few days after the pebbling is finished you can give your pool an acid wash and start filling up!

To finish the project, we’ll book a handover session with you to go over maintenance and operations of your new pool to ensure you have years of enjoyment and value.

Secluded Retreat

This rectangular swimming pool was built with relaxation and restoration in mind.

Utilising the space was key – although not a huge space, there was still plenty of opportunity. The outer walls and plant foliage offer a shaded and secluded tone that has been utilised by the poolside deck.

Sunset Scenery

We wanted to make sure we took full advantage of the beautiful location of this pool.

The infinity edging and placement of the pool offers boundless views of sunrise and sunset and is a true testament to how to our consultation process can lead to beautiful pool design.

Our skilled pool masons also used their pebbling magic to ensure that the pool has a permanent blue glow.

Stepping Stones

We loved the concept behind this one – place the pool between the two wings of the residence, with a set of stepping stones to bridge the gap between them. A curious and captivating idea!

We love doing things with pool design that are quirky and unique – we want your pool to represent you perfectly so you get the most enjoyment out of it.

Simple Serenity

The kidney shape of this pool and deep blue finish allows it to blend naturally into its surroundings and the tiling choice gives a fresh, unencumbered look.

The lack of sharp edges help to make this pool look especially inviting.

Nestled in Nature

This kidney-shaped pool takes advantage of the large natural features that it was built next to. Behind, nature stretches as far as the eye can see.

Natural tones and rocks were used around the edging to accentuate the feeling of finding a beautiful pool in nature. The lack of sharp edges within the pool help to make it feel particularly inviting.

Double Delight

The kidney shape of this pool is defined by the adjoining spa – utilising a waterfall outlet for spill off, this gives the space a truly connected feel.

Rocks and pebbles have been used to accent the tone of the space surrounding the pool, giving a natural aesthetic.

Cute Corners

One of the biggest benefits of concrete pools is how we can use a custom-shaped pool to utilise space. By building this pool around the corner of the building, we were able to give the client a large pool space without impacting on the garden’s other useability.

For extra family fun, this client chose to install a slide – we have a wide variety of pool toys and equipment available.

Freeform

Concrete pools allows for all kinds of weird and wonderful shapes. Curves generally look more inviting and natural, and this pool utilises a unique shape and section of wet edging to help bring nature closer.

Due to the concrete nature of the pool construction we were also able to customise the step placement exactly how the client requested.

Water Wings

As this pool was being built for use by guests of a hotel, it was important to give the impression that different sections of the pool offer privacy whilst still utilising the space and offering the biggest pool possible.

The wings on one side allow for separate parties to have their own space without encroaching upon each other, whilst the larger space on the other side acts like a traditional lap pool.
