Custom Outdoor Pools

If you are looking for qualified outdoor pool builders to create the perfect custom outdoor pool, Watchman Pools has you covered. An outdoor pool is the perfect way to cool down on a hot day, swim some laps, or just relax in the water. Contact our experts today to bring your pool vision to life.

Why Build an Outdoor Pool?

 

An outdoor pool provides the perfect space for you and your family to enjoy together. Whether cooling down on a hot summer day or swimming laps to keep fit, a pool is a great investment for your home. Working with you, we will help you construct the outdoor living area of your dreams.

Generally, we build two types of custom outdoor pools:

  • Standard Swimming Pools
  • Architectural Swimming Pools

In both cases, the pool designs are fully engineered and meet Territorial Construction Requirements. Most of the pools we build are designed specifically for a given dwelling.

Step by step, we will guide you through the pool building process, working with you, your architect, engineer, or landscape designer, or if you prefer, through one of our professional associates. Whether your pool is for exercise purposes or fun for the family, we will bring your ideas to life. Talk to our outdoor pool builders today!

“We have worked with Glenn on two occasions: in 2005 for a complete pool renovation and again in 2011 for a new build for our second project. On both occasions, the process went extremely smoothly, fully met our expectations, and was stress free. Glenn came in on budget and on time, and was a pleasure to work with. He also took the time to show us many others of his projects during our design stage, to help us decide on what finishes to use etc. Glenn’s advice was invaluable and I have no hesitation in recommending him to others.”

“Glenn Jillings and Watchman Developments came recommended. Glenn’s pool design and use of the area was spot on. Glenn and the team were great to deal with. The build was quoted and invoiced as per quote. No unexpected surprises. The whole process went very smoothly. We have a fabulous pool and entertainment area. Having not built a swimming pool before I was nervous and had to put my trust in Glenn. I asked Glenn to ‘build me a pool to die for’. That is exactly what I got. Truly magnificent.”

“We were delighted with the pool project that Glenn Jillings and the team at Watchman Pools completed for us. Glenn provided helpful planning advice, prompt quoting and a focussed build project within their time estimates. Glenn and the team were very responsive throughout the project and managed the interfaces with the council and sub-contractors and builders very smoothly. They achieved an outstanding result and I have no hesitation in recommending them.”

Water Choices

Saltwater

Saltwater pools are known for having a softer water feel than traditional chlorinated pools, which can be more comfortable for swimmers and gentler on the skin and eyes.

While saltwater pools require an upfront investment in the chlorination system, they often have lower ongoing maintenance costs and reduce the need for purchasing and adding chlorine products.

Chlorine

Chlorine pools use chlorine-based chemicals, typically a liquid, tablets, or granules, to sanitise the water and kill bacteria and algae.

Chlorine is a highly effective pool sanitiser widely used to keep pool water clean and safe. Pool owners have direct control over the chlorine levels and can adjust them to maintain water quality.

Please note that chlorinated water can cause some skin irritation.

Mineral

Mineral water uses a combination of minerals, such as copper and silver, and a reduced amount of chlorine to sanitise the water. This water type reduces the reliance on chlorine, leading to water that’s softer on the skin and eyes.

Mineral pools are known for their soft water feel, and many consider them a middle ground between traditional chlorine and saltwater pools regarding water comfort.

Finish Type

Ceramic Mosaic

Create a striking yet classic-looking pool with a ceramic mosaic finish. These tiny ceramic tiles offer many colour and design choices, plus they are easy to clean and maintain.

Glass Mosaic

A glass mosaic finish, though typically more expensive than ceramic, offers a stunning appearance. The glass and its transparency look beautiful as the water dances above it.

Natural Stone

A natural stone finish brings natural beauty to your pool area. In addition to looking great, natural stone provides a slip-resistant surface and an incredibly durable finish for your pool.
