The Fibreglass Pool Installation Process

1. Excavation

The site is marked and excavated to fit the exact size and shape of the selected pool shell. Clean, precise digging sets the stage for a solid install.

2. Base Preparation

A level foundation is created using crushed rock or stabilised sand. This base supports the pool shell evenly and prevents future movement.

3. Crane Lift & Shell Placement

The fibreglass shell is delivered in one piece and lifted into position with a crane. It’s carefully levelled and aligned on-site.

4. Backfilling

The area around the pool is backfilled in stages, using high-quality materials and compaction techniques to lock everything in place.

5. Plumbing & Filtration

All necessary pipework is installed, including return lines, suction, and filtration systems. The equipment is pressure-tested for reliability.

6. Bond Beam

A concrete bond beam is poured around the pool’s perimeter. This reinforces the structure and prepares it for coping installation.

The final edge of the pool is finished with coping tiles β€” ready for the next phase such as fencing, decking, or landscaping.

We chose to install the pool ourselves with help from a builder mate. Everything arrived on time and as described. Pool Tools were great with advice when we had questions.
