Fibreglass Pools Hastings
If you have been thinking of ways to enhance your home to improve your lifestyle, you can’t go past a swimming pool. They are arguably the number one way to transform your backyard and your spare time for good. Here at Fibreglass Pools Hastings, we fit and install stylish and sophisticated fibreglass pools and we can work with you to produce the swimming pool you have always dreamed of for your home and family.
Our company first started more than 30 years ago in our brother country, Australia, and since then has expanded to New Zealand providing locals here the opportunity to install world-class pools that are exceptional in every way imaginable. Our collection has grown exponentially over the years and is one of the largest in New Zealand. With a combination of contemporary and classic designs, there is something for every style and budget.
Our fibreglass pools have been designed to be structurally strong, functional, and comfortable. Not to mention appealing too. Our gel-coat interiors are lustrous in colour and soft underfoot. They offer optimal grip and non-slip properties. As well as this, all our pools have a built-in child safety ledge running around the interior of the pool, allowing swimmers to step on this when they need a break from swimming.
We utilise state-of-the-art fibreglass pool manufacturing technology, equipment, and processes to ensure that all pools are constructed to the absolute highest standards. They are impeccably hand-crafted using the most superior fibreglass and manufactured in a temperature-controlled facility where they undergo thorough quality control checks before ever leaving site.
With backyards continuing to decrease in size, we have expanded our smaller pool collection to accommodate this need. This means that even if you have limited space to work with, it’s highly likely that a swimming pool will still be on the cards for you.
Some of the many styles of pools you’ll find in our collection are plunge pools, lap pools, swim spas, family pools, family pool and spa combos, and spas.

Which fibreglass pool is best suited to me in Hastings?
Choosing the right pool is key to enjoying it for a lifetime, when it suits your specific swimming needs well, you are more likely to use it often, and this is one of the best ways to get value for your money. Your pool needs to:
Accommodate the swimmers using it – will there be enough room for everyone?
What will the swimmers be using the swimming pool for most? For example, fun, fitness, entertaining etc.
Where can your pool go, and how much room is there for it?
What colour pool and surroundings will tie in with the exterior of your home?
Choosing the right pool is very much dependent on your swimming needs, the size of your backyard, your budget and your style. Across Hastings, you’ll find a huge selection of fibreglass pools all varying in colour, shape and size. Typically, those with smaller backyards will have smaller to modest-sized pools such as our plunge pools or swim spas. If you don’t have a big backyard, but you want to be able to swim laps, you can do this with a smaller pool with swim jets installed. Our skilled team can explain all of your pool possibilities to you, and whatever your swimming preferences are, our team will work collaboratively with you to ensure that your new pool is everything you had hoped for and more.
Can I use my pool all year round with Hasting's weather?
While the climate is temperate and generally warm and mild here in Hastings, it is usually cold during winter and not ideal for swimming at this time of year. Whether you’d use your pool all year round depends on whether you would swim when the water is cold as well as the temperature outside. If you wouldn’t, but you would like to, you may find pool heating to be of benefit. There are tonnes of ways you can heat your pool however, the main and most effective way is with a pool heating system. They enable you to warm the pool up on demand quite considerably and allow you to swim when you otherwise wouldn’t because it’s too cold. Solar is a popular option due to its low running costs. Once it has been installed, the ongoing expenses are virtually next to nothing, so you can heat your pool whenever you like without having to worry about racking your electricity bill up. Realistically, for most, swimming during winter doesn’t happen, and the pool goes unused during this time. Heating can stretch out your swimming season and improve the comfortability of the water during the year.
Our pool builders are some of the best in the industry, and you can be assured that your pool will not only look spectacular upon competition but it will stand the test of time too. If you are ready to enjoy the pool ownership lifestyle, contact us today to organise your obligation-free quote.
