Swimming Pool Design
Our swimming pool design service creates bespoke solutions using advanced CAD and BIM technologies. We produce detailed 2D and 3D visualisations that allow clients to review multiple design perspectives before construction begins. Our designs incorporate energy efficiency considerations and comply with current building regulations including U-value requirements for insulated pools.
Pool Installation
We offer complete pool installation services for indoor and outdoor pools, managing projects from excavation to final commissioning. Our team handles all aspects including structural engineering, mechanical systems, and specialist features like swim jets or water features. We ensure compliance with health and safety regulations for both residential and commercial installations.
Maintenance Packages
Our tiered maintenance packages include regular cleaning, water chemistry management, and equipment servicing. The Bronze, Silver, and Gold packages offer different service frequencies and scope levels, from basic winterisation to comprehensive fortnightly visits with equipment checks and chemical balancing.
Pool Refurbishment
We specialise in pool refurbishment projects that address structural issues and modernise existing facilities. Our services include tile replacement, surface resurfacing, coping repairs, and installation of new pool equipment. We also implement energy-saving upgrades to improve efficiency and reduce operating costs for older pools.
Alternative Heating Systems
We install energy-efficient heating solutions including solar water heating, air source, and ground source heat pumps. Our systems reduce energy consumption while maintaining optimal water temperatures. We integrate heating solutions during initial installations or as retrofit upgrades for existing pools.
