Pool builders on the Sunshine Coast

Pools designed for the way you live outside.

Concrete and fibreglass pools, plunge pools for small yards, renovations and the landscaping around them.

Concrete or fibreglass?

The first big choice, made simple.

Both make a great pool. The right one depends on your block, your design and your timing.

How a pool gets built

Six steps, explained before we start.

  1. 01

    Design consultation

    We visit your yard, talk about how you will use the pool and sketch a few options on site.

  2. 02

    Design and quote

    A drawn plan and a written quote that lists the pool, equipment, paving and landscaping.

  3. 03

    Approvals

    We prepare what your council and certifier need, and explain fencing requirements for your site.

  4. 04

    Excavation

    Access is planned first. We dig, remove the soil and protect the rest of your garden.

  5. 05

    Build

    Steel and concrete, or the fibreglass shell set in place, then plumbing and equipment.

  6. 06

    Finish and handover

    Interior, coping, paving and fencing finished. We fill it, balance the water and show you how it all works.

Our process in detail

Small yard?

A plunge pool can fit where you think nothing will.

Courtyards, side yards and sloping blocks: we design compact pools that still feel generous.

Plunge pools

Pool owners

Summers spent in the pool

Sample review
They showed us three layouts for a sloping block before we committed. The pool sits exactly where we wanted it.
Kate, Buderim Concrete pool
Sample review
Weekly photos while it was being built meant we never had to chase anyone.
Darren, Peregian Springs Fibreglass pool
Sample review
Our courtyard is tiny. The plunge pool feels like it was always meant to be there.
Lucy, Mooloolaba Plunge pool
Sample review
A 25-year-old pool with a new interior and coping. It looks brand new.
