The team was professional from the first phone call to the final handover. Our backyard has never looked better.
When a standard shape does not fit your yard, your budget or your vision, we design a pool from a blank page.
A custom pool starts with your block rather than a catalogue, so the shape, depth and features are decided around what your yard actually allows. It suits sloping, narrow or awkward sites, and can take an integrated spa, sun ledge or swim out wherever you want them.
Most Canberra blocks are not perfectly flat or perfectly square rectangles. A custom pool starts with your yard and works backwards, so the shape, depth, steps and finishes are all decided around what actually suits your site rather than what fits a pre made mould.
Our pool shells carry a lifetime manufacturer’s warranty, protecting your investment for the useful life of your pool.
Superior materialsEvery pool is manufactured using high performance, corrosion resistant fibreglass with improved strength and stiffness, so your pool is built to last, not just to look good on day one.
Precision engineeringNew designs are built to exacting tolerances, true edge beams, geometrically accurate shapes, and a surface finish that holds up over time.
We are a Canberra based business, and our pool shells are from 100% Australian owned and operated suppliers.
Our pools are manufactured under strict quality processes, so you can rest assured your pool is built to last.
Advances in heating systems let your family enjoy your pool year round, including solar heating, electric heat pumps and gas heating options.

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

They handled everything: the dig, the crane, the fencing paperwork. One point of contact, no surprises.

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.
