SWIMMING POOL BUILDERS BRISBANE

We are Pool Builders in Brisbane

Creating a swimming pool is one of the greatest things any residential property owner can invest in. Swimming pools enhance your outdoor living thus increasing the value of your property. It also allows you to enjoy your space in a new way regardless of whether you like to swim alone or with family and friends.

But before a bare land space becomes a well-built swimming pool, a lot of professional work must take place. There is paperwork involved, lots of planning and exploration of design options that are completed, before you get to enjoy a fun dip in your pool.

This is also an ideal time to start making your Paving & Tile Selections for your finishes on and in the Pool. At this point in time we still have the flexibility to alter the Pool and Surrounds to work in with your choices.

Council approval, marking and excavating

With your design input and preference in consideration, we will come up with a design for your swimming pool. Once a design is approved, we will proceed to work on getting Engineering and Council Approval for the new project.

After all the paperwork is completed, our team will visit the site and proceed to Mark-out & Profile your Pool area, and then begin Excavation. At this point, you can still share your input on the design and let us know if last-minute alterations need to be made on the plan.

Reinforcement and plumbing of pool shell

Once the Excavation is completed, we will install the Steel Reinforcement and internal Plumbing.

The Steel Fixers will follow the Engineer’s design and requirements, and once the Steel Frame is in place, the Engineer will inspect and sign off. This is an important aspect of the whole build, as the Steel Cage acts as the “Skeleton” of the Pool.

Your Pool’s plumbing will also begin to take shape in this part of the process. Plumbing, skimmer boxes, heating, and lighting will be installed by professional technicians in our team to ensure that they work properly and safely.

At this point it is also important that an Electrician is contracted to complete the Earthing of the Pool Steel. Eco Pools can offer this service, or if you have your own Electrician, we can work in with him. Most Owners prefer to contract their own Electrician, as this can also save on costs for the Project.

Concrete Shell and Tiling

Once all the plumbing is installed, our team will begin to spray (also referred to as shotcrete) in cement to create the concrete shell. We use concrete as it is versatile, made using a highly malleable material, but creates a robust and durable product when completely dried out.

After the concrete is poured in, it is given 28 days to fully cure. This will ensure that it hardens and strengthens enough to support the tiling and plumbing that will follow. When the concrete is all cured, your tiles of choice will be installed.

Plumbing and electrical work

At this point, the aesthetic side of the swimming pool building is practically done. Our team will then make sure that it functions perfectly as it should. Pipelines will be installed and plumbing will be checked and double-checked.

Electrical work is typically left for the owner to decide on. We will work with electricians of your choice regarding the pool’s electrical needs. We can make sure that everything is considered from the filters to pumps, to heating, all the way to the lighting.

Pool Fencing

Your Pool Fencing is a critical component of the whole Project. Some Owners prefer to take on this component of the build themselves, others prefer that we undertake this area within our Scope of Works. Whichever option best suits you, the Pool Fencing any associated works such as Boundary Fencing, must be completed, Inspected and Approved prior to filling the Pool.

Filling the pool

Once the Pool Fencing has been approved, it’s time to fill in the pool. Take note that the pool must be filled in one continuous motion and the water must reach to the top of the Skimmer box. Filling from your hose is still the cheapest way to go, and will generally take around 24-36 Hours (depending on Pool Volume and Water Pressure available).

After the pool is filled, we will get it up and running and then arrange for a comprehensive Handover & Tuition session. With the help of professionals, installing your pool can be a lot easier and less overwhelming. Working with the professionals at Eco Pools will allow you to benefit from our streamlined processes to ensure high-quality and robust pool work.

Our concrete pools are built using the best materials to ensure that the structure will stay stable and robust for decades. A well-built pool by Eco Pools is guaranteed to be of the best quality to make your pool area one of the best parts of your home.
