Outdoor PoolsAuckland & New Zealand
Most of the pools we build are outdoors — obviously, it's New Zealand. Backyard family pools, courtyard plunge pools, large entertainment pools with outdoor kitchens. If you've got the space, we'll figure out how to make it work.
Why Build an Outdoor Pool?
Adds Real Value
A well-built pool with quality finishes adds genuine value. A badly built one does the opposite. We make sure it's the former.
The Heart of Your Backyard
Kids' birthday parties, summer BBQs, quiet morning laps — a pool turns a backyard into the place everyone wants to be.
Use It Year-Round
Add heating and a good cover, and you'll swim from September through May. Some of our clients swim all year.
Designed for Your Site
Narrow section? Sloping yard? Shaded by trees? We've worked with trickier sites than yours. We'll make it fit.
Built for NZ Conditions
New Zealand sun is brutal. Our UV index is some of the highest in the world. That's why we don't use finishes or equipment that fades, cracks, or fails after a couple of summers. Everything we install is rated for NZ conditions — from the concrete shell to the coping stones to the pump housing.
