Why Fibreglass?
Fibreglass pools are a smart choice for homeowners who want a sleek, durable, and low-maintenance pool that goes in fast and lasts for decades. Here's why thousands of Australians are choosing fibreglass:
✅ Quick Install – Ready to swim in 7–10 days
✅ Low Maintenance – Smooth surfaces = less scrubbing
✅ Energy Efficient – Retains heat better than concrete
✅ Crack Resistant – Flexible shell handles Aussie weather
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.
7. Coping Tile
The final edge of the pool is finished with coping tiles — ready for the next phase such as fencing, decking, or landscaping.
8. Finish
Once plumbing’s tested and tilework’s done, the pool is filled. You (or your installer) finalise the setup — and we’re here to help if you hit any snags.
