Concrete Pool Construction
Our concrete pool construction combines durability with custom design for Brisbane properties. Using steel reinforcement and advanced spraying techniques, we create pools that withstand Brisbane's climate while meeting Australian standards. Our process includes soil assessment, council compliance, and 28-day concrete curing for structural integrity. Clients receive detailed 3D designs and cost breakdowns before construction begins.
Pool Renovations
We specialize in revitalizing aging pools with modern finishes and features. Our renovations include coping replacement, tile band installation, interior resurfacing, and adding contemporary elements like LED lighting. We assess structural integrity before work begins, ensuring compliance with current safety standards while enhancing aesthetic appeal and functionality.
Pool Finishes
We offer premium finish options including smooth pebble, aqua neon, quartzon, and glass mosaic interiors. Our coping choices feature natural stone and durable pavers, while surrounds use concrete bases for long-term stability. Each finish selection considers Brisbane's climate and client preferences for aesthetics and maintenance requirements.
Pool Pumps & Filters
We install energy-efficient variable-speed pumps and filtration systems tailored to pool size and usage. Options include sand filters with recycled glass media or cartridge filters, with consideration for Brisbane's water conditions. Our systems integrate with automation controllers for optimal energy use and water quality management.
Lap Pools
Our lap pools feature hydrodynamic designs for efficient swimming, with length options starting at 50 feet. We incorporate anti-vortex water features and adjustable current systems for training. Construction includes non-slip surfaces, proper drainage, and heating options to extend usage across Brisbane's seasons.

Fantastic experience from start to finish. We had a very difficult sloping block with a 3m retaining wall at the bottom. John understood exactly what we wanted and was able to provide solutions every time. Brent and all his tradies were great lads. I would recommend Eco Pools without hesitation. Thanks guys!
