Why tiled?

A tiled pool gives a proper luxury finish.

A tiled in-ground pool gives a far more premium finish than a standard liner pool. It creates a permanent, high-end feel and can become the centrepiece of a garden.

Our pools are designed for customers who want a proper tiled finish, clean lines, a compact pool equipment setup and a bright reflective water appearance.

1

Premium Finish

Glass mosaic tiles create depth, colour movement and a brighter water appearance.

2

Solid Construction

In-ground construction with concrete, reinforcement and tiled finish.

3

Compact Plant

Pump and filtration equipment housed neatly together in a compact tech box.

Premium blue glass mosaic tiled swimming pool finish
Recommended tile finish

The tile is what creates the “million-dollar pool” look.

For a premium finish, we recommend a glass mosaic tile such as H531 Ibiza Part Iridescent 23.5mm Glass Mosaic.

The iridescent glass reflects light through the water, creating depth, movement and colour variation. This gives the pool a brighter, cleaner and more luxurious appearance than a flat or basic tile finish.

Customers are welcome to source tiles directly, or we can help source them at cost once the final tile style and finish has been confirmed.

How we build your pool

A structured build process from excavation to tiled finish.

Our swimming pools are not just designed to look exceptional when finished. They are built using a structured installation process from excavation and reinforcement through to the final tiled finish.

Pool base prepared with steel reinforcement
Stage 1

Base preparation and steel

The pool area is excavated and prepared before reinforcement is installed ready for concrete.

Fresh concrete base poured for swimming pool
Stage 2

Concrete base

The reinforced concrete base is installed to create the foundation for the pool structure.

Pool wall system starting on concrete base
Stage 3

Wall system starts

The pool wall system is set out on the slab and checked as the shell begins to take shape.

Swimming pool wall system and reinforcement taking shape
Stage 4

Walls and reinforcement

Wall sections, reinforcement and pipework are built up before the concrete works continue.

Stage 5

Pool shell takes shape

The full pool shell becomes visible as the structure progresses through the main build phase.

Groundworks

Additional groundworks and landscaping.

The guide prices include a standard excavation and spoil removal allowance. Additional groundworks may be required depending on site access, ground conditions, water table, retaining requirements, drainage, soil removal or levels around the garden.

Where suitable, we can also look at re-using some of the excavated soil to form a landscaped earth barrier or bund. This may help reduce waste away and can also help create a degree of water diversion or flood protection, subject to soil suitability and final site levels.

Landscaping around the pool is not included in the main pool price but can be quoted separately.

  • Landscaping around the pool
  • Additional site access issues
  • Difficult ground conditions, rock, roots, water ingress or unexpected obstructions
  • Additional spoil removal beyond the standard allowance
  • Retaining walls, drainage works or structural works outside the pool construction
  • Electrical supply to the pool equipment
  • Purchase cost of tiles, shown separately above
  • Air source heat pump, shown separately above
  • Planning, building control or professional fees, if required

Estimated lead time

Subject to final site survey, design confirmation and supplier availability, we would estimate:

Site survey, final design and confirmation1–2 weeks
Ordering pool kit / materials2–4 weeks
Pool construction programmeapprox. 4–8 weeks
Additional groundworks, if requiredsubject to scope

Estimated overall lead time from confirmation is usually around 8–14 weeks, depending on supplier lead times, site access, weather, ground conditions, concrete curing times and the final scope of works.

Next steps

Request a swimming pool estimate.

The first step is to arrange a short discussion and site review. Following this, we can confirm suitable pool size, access for excavation, soil removal, equipment location, tile choice, heat pump requirement, landscaping requirements and final specification.

Important notes

Guide prices only.

This page is intended as a guide price only. All prices are subject to confirmation following a full site survey, access check, ground condition review, supplier confirmation and final design.

Changes to pool depth, specification, access, ground conditions, materials or customer requirements may affect the final price. Supplier prices and material costs can change, so all pricing is subject to confirmation at the point of order.
