Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a pool fence when installing a new pool?
Yes, pool fencing is a legal requirement in NSW for all new pool installations. The fence must meet specific height, access, and gate regulations to comply with safety standards. The design and positioning of your fence can also affect how your pool is installed and where it can be placed within the yard. It’s best to factor this in during the planning stage to make sure the layout works well and meets all compliance requirements.
What should I expect during the pool installation process?
The process usually begins with a consultation and site inspection, followed by planning and council approvals. Once that’s complete, excavation is done using the team’s own equipment, and the fibreglass shell is delivered and installed. Plumbing, filtration, and concreting are then completed before the system is balanced and the pool is handed over. A good installer will explain each stage clearly and keep you informed from start to finish.
Are fibreglass pools suitable for coastal areas like Old Bar?
Yes, fibreglass pools are a great option for coastal homes. The materials are resistant to salt, moisture, and UV exposure, which makes them well suited to environments with high humidity and sun. Proper installation and quality filtration help ensure the pool performs well and lasts for decades, even in challenging coastal conditions. Choosing the right finishes and positioning the pool to suit the natural slope or drainage of the land can also enhance its durability.
How do I choose the right pool shape for my backyard?
The right pool shape depends on your yard size, how you plan to use the pool, and the overall layout of your outdoor space. For smaller areas, plunge pools or slimline designs can maximise functionality without taking over the yard. Larger properties might benefit from more spacious family or lap pools. It’s also important to consider how the pool integrates with fencing, paths, and entertaining areas. A professional installer can help assess your site and recommend designs that will fit well and function smoothly.
