Frequently Asked Questions
What are the most popular swimming pool trends in 2025?
As of 2025, the most popular swimming pool trends focus on sustainability, smart technology, and seamless integration with outdoor living areas. Homeowners are increasingly choosing natural-looking pools with organic shapes, darker finishes, and surrounding greenery to blend into their landscape. Smart pool systems are also on the rise, allowing for remote control of heating, lighting, filtration, and chemical levels via smartphone apps.
Energy-efficient equipment such as variable-speed pumps, LED lighting, and solar heating systems are in demand, reducing long-term operating costs. Additionally, more people are opting for compact plunge pools with built-in seating, perfect for smaller yards and lower maintenance. Features like tanning ledges, in-pool benches, and hidden pool covers are also becoming more common for their convenience and aesthetic appeal.
Is it better to build a pool in summer or winter?
While it may seem logical to build a swimming pool in summer when the weather is warm, winter or early spring is often the better time to start construction. During the cooler months, pool builders are generally less booked, which can mean shorter wait times and more flexible scheduling. This also allows you to have your pool ready by the time the warmer weather arrives.
Building in winter can also reduce weather-related delays, particularly in areas prone to summer storms or extreme heat. Additionally, demand for materials and equipment is typically lower in the off-season, which may result in more competitive pricing. Planning ahead gives you time to finalise designs, get council approvals, and complete landscaping before peak swimming season hits.
Can you install a swimming pool on a sloped block?
Yes, it’s absolutely possible to install a swimming pool on a sloped block, though it does come with extra considerations. Sloped sites often require retaining walls, split-level designs, or partial above-ground construction to accommodate the elevation changes. These adjustments can increase the complexity and cost of the build, but they also allow for stunning results—especially when integrated with decking or terraced landscaping.
Pools on sloped blocks may offer unique visual appeal, natural privacy, and elevated views. However, proper drainage and structural support are essential to prevent water runoff and soil erosion. An experienced pool designer or builder can assess your site and recommend the best approach, balancing aesthetics, engineering, and council requirements.
