Posted by Rohan Taylor | | Pool Design

If you want to transform your backyard into a private oasis, a DIY pool might be just what you need. With a wide selection of options across Australia, finding the perfect pool for you shouldn't cost a fortune or be hard work.

In this article, we will explore the various options for buying a DIY pool and guide you toward making the right choice.

Fibreglass Pools: A Low-Maintenance Delight

Fibreglass pools cost less time and money to maintain than concrete and vinyl liner pools. As they have a smooth, non-porous surface, your skin won't be scuffed getting in and out, which will have your feet doing quite the happy dance. Take the time to explore the benefits of fibreglass pools and how they can turn your backyard into your favourite place to be at home.

Our customers love our fibreglass pool kits for their 35-year lifetime structural warranty, Australian-made equipment, fast installation and low chemical use, which means less 'on pool' time and more 'in pool' time.

Fibreglass Above-Ground Pools: Flexibility and Affordability

Fibreglass above-ground pools offer a practical solution for those seeking a more flexible and affordable alternative to an inground or vinyl liner pool. They are hugely popular in rural areas for their ease of installation and in suburban blocks where excavating an inground pool is a problem or the block is sloping.

The Kakadu Fibreglass above-ground pool is a stunning freestanding pool with a built-in spa seating area that's easy to install without earthworks. As it's fibreglass with a gel coat finish, you don't need to worry about leaking liners or framework rusting. The Kakadu is inspired by the beautiful round bays and rock pools of Kakadu National Park. Time for your pool cation!

Discover the advantages of above-ground fibreglass pools and how they can provide you and your family with hours of enjoyment without needing to excavate.

Fibreglass Plunge Pools: The Perfect Space-Saver

For a small backyard, consider a fibreglass plunge pool. These compact pools offer unique features perfect for unwinding and having fun in limited spaces. No more driving to the local pool or beach for you!

The Whitsunday DIY plunge pool range was designed for compact yards and deck areas. Beautiful and hugely functional with dual entry steps and a full-length bench seat, it is the perfect combination of space for swimming and space for chilling.

Are you working with limited space and want to know what will work best with your area? Our plunge pool models come in varying widths, depths, and lengths.

Fibreglass Family Pools: Fun, Sun and Family Memories

You can choose from fibreglass pools ranging from 6m up to 11m for bigger backyards. There are models with beach entries, entertaining bench seats and side seat areas all with different widths and depths. With over 20 different colours available, choosing your favourite colour is the hardest part of the process.

With the wide range of DIY pool options available in Australia, there is undoubtedly a perfect fit for your backyard. Whether you prioritise low maintenance, customisation, or maximising space, understanding the various pool types will help you make an informed decision.

My wife and I grew up playing in swimming pools. Our daughters learnt to swim in our backyard fibreglass swimming pool. There is nothing quite like hearing kids splashing about and giggling. As pools do, our pool became a social magnet for friends, family and neighbours which we loved. Helping customers to have their own pool and saving customers thousands on their pool and equipment is the best job in the world.
