Work with the leading concrete swimming pool builders and designers
Imagine being able to cool off in the hottest Victorian weather, or keeping warm when the chilly cool changes blow through. Having a pool is a luxury and sometimes a necessity in the changeable Victorian weather.
At Longview Landscapes, we know that pool construction is rarely one-size-fits-all. We specialise in crafting bespoke, luxury swimming pools tailored to your vision. Our team of skilled pool builders use their decades of building experience to create high-quality pools your family will enjoy for years to come.
As an all-inclusive residential landscape and concreting company, we provide a range of essential services to homes in the Melbourne and Mornington Peninsula regions. We have years of experience creating the landscape of your dreams, and can work alongside you to make sure your architectural garden design comes to life. We cover hardscape and softscape services, concrete services, and pool construction to name a few.
Alternatively, if you have a predesigned landscape project ready to get straight into construction, we are ready and willing to work with you to ensure your design comes to life exactly how you imagine it. We will work with you to find the best materials for your design, assist in matching the texture of your ideal landscape, and find whatever plant life you would like for your garden design.
Designing Your Pool
When establishing your pool design, we will first aim to understand what it is you are looking for. When it comes to designing a swimming pool, there are a few popular options:
Installing an above-ground pool is uncommon, but can be an option for people who are not undergoing any other landscaping in their yard. True to their name, these pools are installed above-ground instead of being semi-buried or buried like most pools. They are much easier to install, and are sometimes a much more cost-effective option, used for fun and entertaining guests.
Pool Customisation Options
While discussing what you want for your pool construction, we will walk you through the various ways you can customise it to your taste and style. As one of the leading custom pool building companies in Melbourne, the only limit when designing your pool is your imagination.
There are a huge range of materials you can use for your pool construction, including:
- Concrete
- Tiling
- Ceramic mosaic
- Glass mosaic
- Rendered cement
- Natural stone
- Fibreglass
Pools are unique because they can be shaped however you want them (with the exception of fibreglass pools). Popular shapes seem most commonly in pool design are:
- Classic rectangles
- Freeform
- Oval and circles
- L shapes
- Kidney
- Geometric
- Custom
Landscaping Integration
No pool is entirely finished without the landscape to go with it! As a pool and landscaping construction business, we know just how to blend your dream pool into the perfect landscape. Experts in our craft, we can give you tips and tricks on what we know works with your design so you get the most out of your new luxury pool.
With pool decking options like natural stone tiles, pavers, and textured concrete, we have a range of hardscape landscaping services we can use to elevate your pool design to new heights. Why not add a water feature into your pool like water jets, a small spa pool, or waterfalls. Or you could put in some lights for after-hours swimming. For those sunny summer days, consider some handy umbrella holders or maybe integrate some tanning beds into the pool itself!
Pool Construction and Installation
When you choose Longview Landscapes to build your luxury dream pool, you are choosing a comprehensive, full-service pool build. Our skilled project managers handle all aspects of the design and construction process, including the paperwork.
Pool Construction
Site Survey and Inspection
An important first step in the pool construction process is a site survey and inspection. As soon as we know what pool you want, we send our knowledgeable pool contractors to do a site survey to comprehensively examine where you want your pool to be. If required, we conduct extra research into your area to make sure it is suitable for your pool build. If there is something we think may not work with your design, we will go into this with you in detail and ensure we have alternative solutions that you are happy with before proceeding further.
Approvals and Permits
With our collective years of experience constructing only the best high-quality pools in Melbourne, we are well versed in council approvals and permits in the Mornington Peninsula. To ensure your build goes as smoothly and efficiently as possible, we handle all council permits and approvals. This includes applying for the correct Mornington Peninsula Shire building permits before starting construction. Once the building permit has been secured, we ensure all your permits are in place and your pool is safety compliant to prevent any long-term concerns.
Pool Construction
At this point, construction will officially start. We will grade the land to ensure it is completely level with no slopes before we begin excavation and utility work. We will reinforce the base with steel bars for enhanced structural integrity before laying down rebar framework and spraying it with shotcrete or gunite. From here, we let it set before coming back and shaping it into your thoughtfully crafted design!
Final Touches
To polish it off, we add any other special requests like water features or lighting effects to your pool before double checking it is compliant with Victorian pool fencing laws. Once all final checks have been completed, we teach you how to care for your brand new pool!
