Frequently Asked Questions

  • Are fibreglass pools durable in coastal environments?

    Yes, fibreglass pools are highly durable and well-suited to coastal environments. The non-porous surface resists salt and moisture-related damage, and the one-piece construction reduces the risk of cracking or shifting in sandy or unstable soils—making them an ideal choice for coastal areas.

  • How often should I service my pool equipment?

    Regular servicing of your pool equipment helps ensure everything runs smoothly and lasts longer. Pumps, filters, chlorinators and heaters should be inspected at least once a year by a professional. However, you should also clean your filter and skimmer baskets every 1–2 weeks and monitor system pressure and performance regularly.


    Seasonal servicing—especially in spring and autumn—is ideal to catch any issues before heavy use or during cooler months when the system might be underused. Staying on top of maintenance can prevent costly breakdowns and help your pool operate more efficiently year-round.

  • Can I build a pool on a small or narrow block?

    Yes, you can absolutely build a swimming pool on a small or narrow block, especially with today’s range of compact pool designs and creative layouts. Plunge pools, lap pools, and slimline fibreglass shells are all popular options for tighter spaces.


    Designers can also use retaining walls, multi-level layouts or corner placement to maximise space. Consider factors like access for installation, proximity to buildings or boundaries, and fencing requirements. With the right planning and advice, even small backyards in places like Forster can accommodate a beautiful, functional pool.
