    Concrete or steel

    Two ways to build your pool

    Tiled concrete overflow pool beside a modern villa

    Concrete pool

    RECOMMENDED

    The premium, permanent choice: a steel-reinforced concrete shell, fully waterproofed and finished in real mosaic or porcelain tile; any shape, skimmer, overflow or infinity edge.

    Rectangular garden pool with loungers

    Steel panel pool

    The fast, budget option: galvanised or stainless panels bolted on a concrete base, lined with a reinforced membrane; quicker and cheaper, ideal for holiday lets.

    Steel panel pools

    Need it fast? Go steel.

    For holiday lets, tight deadlines and tighter budgets, a galvanised or stainless steel panel pool goes in four quick stages. Popular sizes are 8 × 4 m, 10 × 6 m and 12 × 6 m — or we build to the size and shape your plot allows, including L-shapes with built-in steps.

    Fill, backfill & finish

    We fill and commission the pool, backfill around it and finish with coping and terrace.

    Galvanised steel

    Zinc-coated for corrosion protection. Strong, proven and the best-value way to get a permanent in-ground pool.

    Stainless steel

    The premium steel option, with the highest resistance to corrosion — a smart choice for coastal plots and salt-water systems.
