Express Pools

A real fibreglass pool for smaller backyards and difficult sites

Express Pools offer a full fibreglass pool experience without the need for major excavation or complex engineering. They sit on a 110mm reinforced concrete slab, arrive pre-plumbed, and can be installed above ground or partially in ground, making them well suited to sections where a traditional in ground installation is difficult or cost prohibitive.

Is this the right pool for you?

This pool suits you if:

  • This pool suits you if your section has difficult access, a narrow side gate, mature trees, or limited room for excavation equipment.
  • This pool suits you if you want to get into the pool faster, without waiting on consent for extensive earthworks.
  • This pool suits you if you want a pool that aligns with an existing deck height rather than sitting in the ground.
  • This pool suits you if you’re looking for a cost effective entry into pool ownership without compromising on quality.

Features

Freestanding or partially in ground

Flexible installation options: completely above ground or up to 600mm in ground, to suit your site and your preferred deck level.

Pre-plumbed for faster installation

Express Pools arrive ready to connect. Fill it up, connect to power, and you could be swimming on delivery day.

No major excavation needed

Sitting on a reinforced concrete slab rather than a traditional dig, Express Pools require far less groundwork, which means less disruption to your property and a faster, simpler install.

Full fibreglass construction

Unlike container pools, Express Pools are built entirely from fibreglass, with no steel or timber in the structure, so there’s no risk of rust or rot over time.

Fully customisable exterior

Express Pools arrive without cladding so you can deck or clad the exterior to match your design. Deck bearers bolt directly onto the pool structure for a fast, clean finish.

Lightweight and easier to crane into place

The fibreglass construction makes Express Pools lighter and easier to transport and crane over obstacles than a steel container pool.
