We visit the garden and listen to how you want to use the water. Swimming proper lengths, somewhere to sit beside, a place the children can get into safely. Then we read the site: levels, light, trees, drainage, and the windows the water will be seen from.
We photograph the garden from the angles that matter and take the measurements the design needs. Everything that follows is built on your actual garden rather than a standard layout dropped into it.
A natural pool is a considered investment. So we bring the design to life on screen, in your own garden, from the views you use every day. Shape, planting, coping, decking, where the submerged oak beam divides swimming from regeneration zone. Look at it, live with it, and tell us what to change.
The pool is drawn to suit the building it sits near and the garden it sits in. Where the edge runs, which materials meet the water, how the planted regeneration zone reads from the terrace and from the kitchen window.
Move the edge, widen the swim zone, swap oak for stone, add planting or take it away. On screen a change costs a conversation. Once the ground is open it costs rather more. This is the point to be fussy.
After the visit you receive a proposal built around your garden, not a brochure of somebody else's project. It shows the pool where it will actually go, sets out how it is built, and puts an honest number against it.
Visualisations of the finished pool from the views you use most.
Plans with dimensions, levels and the position of the regeneration zone.
A guide price excluding VAT, with what it covers and what it does not.
Worth being straight about, because a lot of this industry is not:
They are design visualisations of your garden, made from our own photographs and measurements of it.
They are not photographs of a finished pool, and we will never present them as such.
What you approve is what we build. Change the design and the visualisation changes with it.
The visit and the design consultation are free, with no obligation to go further. Design usually takes two to four weeks, and the build that follows takes eight to sixteen. Tell us where the garden is and we will come and see it.
