Custom Swimming Pools Designed Around Your Property

Pools customised to you.

Built to Last

Durable Concrete pools use D12 reinforced steel and a minimum of 30MPa shotcrete, making them some of the most robust pools available.

Design Freedom

Create any shape, size, or finish—from luxury to minimal. From cozy plunge pools to expansive layouts, nothing’s off the table.

Hydraulic Precision

A good pool design starts with the property. Precision Pools designs and builds custom swimming pools throughout New Zealand. We look at the home, the space available and how the pool will actually be used, then work with the people involved to develop a design that makes sense for the property.

 

Some projects are shaped around outdoor living and family use. Others are designed to complement the architecture, surrounding landscape and overall character of the property. Whatever the brief, the result is a custom-built concrete pool that feels considered, practical and right for its setting.

Why Choose a Custom-Built Pool?

A custom-made pool gives you more freedom than a pre-manufactured pool shell. The size, shape, depth, entry points, seating, spa features and water features can all be planned around your home and the way you want to use the space. 

 

This flexibility is particularly useful across New Zealand because every property comes with its own set of challenges. On one site there may be a steep bank to work around, while another may have limited space between the house and boundary. Some sections are straightforward, others require a bit more planning. A custom-built pool can be designed around the conditions of the property without compromising the overall layout. 

 

With a custom pool design, the layout works with the site rather than forcing the site to fit the pool.

Our Custom Swimming Pool Design and Build Process

Good design is only one part of a successful custom pool. The planning, groundwork and construction all need to be handled properly from the beginning.

 

Our process typically includes:

  • Site assessment and feasibility review 
  • Pool concept and custom design development 
  • Council consent assistance where required 
  • Excavation and structural preparation 
  • Reinforced concrete pool construction 
  • Hydraulic and filtration installation 
  • Interior pool finishes and coping 
  • Pool commissioning and handover

Concrete Pools Built for New Zealand Conditions

Concrete pools can be built in a wide range of sizes and shapes, making them well suited to custom swimming pool projects. They also provide the structural strength needed for different site conditions, from straightforward sections through to more challenging builds.

 

Factors we consider during the design stage include:

  • Soil conditions and ground stability
  • Pool orientation and sun exposure
  • Wind patterns and heat retention
  • Filtration and circulation efficiency
  • Heating system compatibility
  • Future maintenance requirements

FAQs

Do I need council consent to build a swimming pool?

Consent requirements can vary depending on the project. Fencing, retaining work and the conditions of the site can all affect which approvals are needed. We can help you understand the requirements and guide you through the process.

The first consultation is where we talk through what you have in mind and look at how it could work on the site. We consider the space, access, any obvious challenges and the type of pool that may suit the property.

A concrete pool does not have to look or feel the same as the next one. You can choose from plaster, exposed aggregate or tile, depending on the finish you prefer and what works for your budget. Some people want a smooth, simple surface. Others prefer more texture or a stronger colour.
