Visit our premises at 15 Helmshore Way, Port Kennedy. We always have a range of pools in stock from our partners:

  • Allcast Precast

  • Plungie Pools

  • Plunge Pools Direct

We’ll explain the pool options, help you choose the best one for your installation, and provide pricing details.

Step 2: Site works (1–2 days before install)

We prefer to complete your site works 1 – 2 days in advance of the installation of your new plunge pool. On site works day we arrive at 7.30 am and complete the site works usually finishing by 2pm. We will excavate, dispose of the soil and complete the base ( either blue metal fr concrete) that your pool “sits” Usually we are finished by 3pm. Sand removal is included in the price providing it is clean fill. On the day of install we will again arrive at 7.30 am to check the levels, before the crane arrives to lift your pool in around 10am. Once the pool has been placed into position we will complete the plumbing pre-lay and back fill the pool with remaining soil

We usually complete your site works 1–2 days before installing your plunge pool. Our team arrives at 7:30 am and finishes by around 2:00 pm.

 

Excavation and Base Preparation

We excavate the soil, dispose of it, and prepare the base with either blue metal or concrete. Your pool then sits securely on this foundation. Sand removal is included in the price if the fill is clean.

 

Pool Delivery and Placement

On installation day, we arrive again at 7:30 am to check the site levels. Around 10:00 am, the crane arrives to lift your pool into place. Once the pool is positioned, we complete the plumbing pre-lay and backfill the pool with soil.

Step 3: Inspection and planning

We can then arrange a site inspection at your home, and confirm the estimate given, measure up pool location, check the machinery access and the future site works depending if fully or partly inground , or above ground and work out the cheapest way of craning your pool into position. Equipment location is decided on so you can prearrange any power point locations.

 

We arrange a site inspection at your home. During the visit, we:

  • Confirm the estimate.
  • Measure the pool location.
  • Check machinery access.
  • Review future site works.
  • Work out the most cost-effective way to crane your pool into position.

 

Power and Equipment Planning

We also confirm equipment locations so you can plan any required power points.

 

Extra Trades

You will need an electrician and a fencer. You may also need a carpenter, concreter, or landscaper. If you don’t know who to contact, we can recommend reputable companies.

Step 4: Trades you may need

The next day the pool is fully plumbed to the equipment and filtration package and the pool will be filled. once the pool is filled with water, we will then complete the handover. It includes training on cleaning your pool, testing/balancing the water a “run down” of everything you need to know. You can then confidently look after your new pool and if ever you are in doubt we encourage you to ring us with any questions. We also balance the water for you and soon after this the pool is ready to be swim in – and then its time to get into your bathers and check out your new pool.

The next day, we fully plumb the equipment and connect the filtration system. We then fill the pool with water.

 

Handover and Training

Once the pool is filled, we complete the handover. This includes training on cleaning your pool, testing and balancing the water, and a full run-through of everything you need to know.

 

You can then confidently manage your new pool. If you have any doubts, we encourage you to call us anytime. We also balance the water for you. Soon after this, your pool will be ready for swimming.

Step 5: Fill, commission, and handover

Villa Plunge Pools will then prepare a set of plans for the installation of your pool, and provide you a SPASWA contract (Swimming Pool and Spa Association of WA) for your review. Once you have signed the contract, we will submit all relevant paperwork to your council and Watercorp via our building surveyors for their tick of approval and order your polo from our pool partner. Once we have approval – which is usually 2 – 3 weeks we tentatively schedule your siteworks for a time convenient to you, subject to the manufacture and delivery of your pool to our premises in Port Kennedy ready for install.

Approval Process

Once you sign the contract, we submit all paperwork to your council and Watercorp. Our building surveyors manage the approval process. At the same time, we order your pool from our partner.

Approval usually takes 2–3 weeks. Once approved, we schedule site works at a convenient time for you. We then manufacture and deliver your pool to our premises in Port Kennedy, ready for installation.

Step 6: Fencing & council compliance

Fencing is required once the pool is filled over 300mm, so you need to arrange a temporary fence before you install your permanent pool fence if you intend to use the pool. Once the permanent pool fence is installed, we will complete a BA7 “Notice of Completion” form and send to your relevant council. This then “triggers” your pool inspection for compliance.

You must arrange fencing once your pool is filled over 300mm. A temporary fence is required if your permanent fence is not yet in place.

 

Permanent Fencing

When the permanent pool fence is installed, we complete a BA7 “Notice of Completion” form. We then submit it to your local council. This triggers your pool inspection for compliance.
