We’re a Canberra owned and operated business that’s spent years learning this soil, this climate and local councils. That knowledge is the difference between a pool that lasts and one that doesn’t.

We chose ACT Pools for the warranty. The installation was clean, fast, and the quality is undeniable.

Our kids practically live in the water now. It is the best investment we have made in our home.

A sloping block and tight side access, and they never blinked. The crew left the yard cleaner than they found it.

From quote to first swim in under two months, council approvals included. Straight answers the whole way through.

About fibreglass, timelines and getting council approval in Canberra.
Most pools are swim ready within a few weeks of excavation. The precise timeline depends on site access and weather, but we move fast without cutting corners. However, once your build is booked, most projects are built within 2-3 days.
All pools in the ACT require approval, including fencing and safety compliance. ACT Pools lodge and manage every approval for you.
Canberra’s beautiful summers and cool winters, and everything in between, are what a pool here has to cope with. We build across fibreglass, concrete and pre-cast Plungie pools, and can talk you through what holds up best to the frosts, the heat and our soil.
Yes! Tight access, sloping blocks and rocky ground are standard here. We bring the right equipment and price it into your quote. Since what’s underground can be hard to predict, we’re fully equipped with the right machinery to handle any challenges that come up. If rock is encountered, we’ve got equipment on hand to efficiently break down and excavate rock, ensuring your pool installation moves ahead smoothly.
Masterbuilt offers a lifetime warranty on their pool shells. This is combined with all your standard construction industry warranty periods, which are through ACT Pools as your builder. Our team will be able to advise exactly what applies to you during our initial talks and project planning period.
A perfect Canberra summer starts with one conversation. Tell us about your backyard, and we’ll put together a detailed quote for your pool, with no hidden costs.
Tell us a little about your block and we will be in touch within one business day.
