Having decided to install a pool the challenge is then to get the right pool for you and your home. Why buy a swimming pool? The answer is easy and is to be found in the laughter of children, the happiness of an afternoon amongst friends, on those lovely summer days when the sound of splashing water and laughter fill the air.


A well designed pool should be attractive, accessible, sturdy and easy to install; harmoniously blending into your garden.

Swimming pool literally  means any basin, chamber or tank constructed of impervious material, located either indoors or outdoors containing an artificial body of water for swimming or recreational bathing and having a depth of 2 feet or more at any point. Therefore all equipment would be provided during the build of a new swimming pool.

  • Open Question: If you were to jump into a swimming pool...?

    ...with a pair of armbands (or swimming aids, or whatever you may call them) around your ankles, (with none on your arms), would your weight enable you to stand in the pool, or would you float up to the surface - feet first? Has anyone ever tried this? Stupid question I know... : / But just wondering! : D

  • Open Question: What is a cheap but good bike for learning to ride on?

    Ashamed to admit it haha, but I never learnt to ride as a kid, I was much more interested in computer games and the swimming pool. I am now 18 and still haven't learnt but would love too. Especially considering I love endurance sports and am missing out on a lot of cross-country bike trips. I will probably learn on a secluded field somewhere to save myself embarrasment :P. Thanks for any answers! Take care!

  • Open Question: Is it unhealthy to spend too long in the swimming pool?

    Of course swimming is healthy, but I am wondering if it is possibly unhealthy for the skin or for any other reason to spend too long in the swimming pool. Just wondering as I know many top athletes in swimming spend upwards of 4 hours in the pool each day and a new swimming pool is opening up near me soon, I plan on spending 3 hours each day every day in there. (with the occasional day to rest).

  • Open Question: Can one influence the average temperature of the water in a swimming pool by pool design?

    Dark colours absorb heat, we are told, while light ones and mirrors reflect it. Also there are solar panels, in other situations. Perhaps the pool needs to be a particular depth to optimise such effects, if any? Yet I hear very little about designing swimming pools to retain heat - can someone enlighten me on this, please?

  • Open Question: does anyone know when the swimming pool at domaine de l orangeraie la digue seychelles be completed for use?
