How much will a pool cost to build and maintain ?This is very much determined by the final design and style of the pool just as it with a house. As a very rough guide allow at least £600 per Square Meter of the pools surface. Maintaining the pool is simply a question of how clean and tidy you want your pool as well as the final pool design and style. We suggest allowing around £1000 per year for a planted pool.

Why is there algae in my pool?Blanket weed or String algae is common when first setting a pool up and is caused by dissolved phosphates in the pool water. If managed correctly it soon goes away and only returns if new phosphates are added to the pool water. If you are having problems with blanket weed in your pool, don't hesitate to contact us.

How does a Natural Pool work?Natural swimming pools and ponds work by providing a self contained body of water with limited phosphates. The water is generally circulated around the pool by a pump and through the plants which remove additional nutrients and clarify the water.
