Services
Concrete Pools
Our concrete pools offer unparalleled design flexibility for residential and commercial properties. Using durable construction methods, we create unique shapes and incorporate features like waterfalls and spas. These pools withstand harsh weather conditions while maintaining structural integrity for decades. Clients can choose from various finishes including pebbles, tiles, and polished surfaces to complement their outdoor spaces.
Mineral Pools
We install MagnaPool mineral systems that combine magnesium and potassium for healthier swimming. These low-chlorine pools reduce skin and eye irritation while maintaining water cleanliness. The mineral composition provides therapeutic benefits including muscle relaxation and improved sleep quality. This eco-friendly alternative requires less maintenance than traditional chlorine pools while delivering silky-smooth water texture.
Fresh Water Pools
Our Naked NKD-R Freshwater Systems use copper and silver minerals for natural water purification. This technology prevents algae growth and bacterial contamination while minimising chlorine requirements. The system integrates with existing filtration setups and reduces annual maintenance costs by $700-$900. It provides a comfortable swimming experience with softer water that's gentle on skin and eyes.
Saltwater Pools
Saltwater pools use natural salt chlorination systems to maintain clean, soft water with reduced chemical odour. The self-regulating systems generate chlorine on demand, requiring less manual maintenance. These pools offer gentler swimming conditions for sensitive skin while maintaining effective sanitisation. The eco-friendly approach reduces reliance on synthetic chemicals.
Pool Filtration Systems
We design and install advanced filtration systems for all pool types. Our solutions include variable speed pumps and energy-efficient filtration units that reduce power consumption. The systems maintain optimal water quality while minimising chemical requirements. Regular servicing ensures long-term efficiency and compliance with safety standards for residential and commercial applications.
