Many homeowners interested in an indoor pool assume that they need to have a new extension constructed in order to house it created. However, a basement is often an underutilised space that could be perfect for a swimming pool.

There are many advantages to choosing your basement as the space for your pool. Firstly, it is available all-year-round, no matter the weather. It is also easier to keep clean, as the water cannot be contaminated with soil, bird droppings or other debris.

How much does a basement pool cost?

Any kind of indoor pool is more expensive than an outdoor pool, and basement pools are no exception. However, this price generally reflects the level of building and construction work that is required. Basement pools can vary enormously due to the challenges involved in working within the basement. Please read out useful guide on the general cost of indoor pools, or contact us to get a quote.

Does my basement pool need planning permission?

Your swimming itself will typically not require planning permission. The only time that you would need planning permission is if you are digging out a brand new basement beneath your home. Speak to our team about whether planning permission is likely to be required in your case.

Can my pool be heated?

Yes. Both indoor and outdoor pools can be heated to your desired temperature. We can install pool heating through a number of different options.

How long does construction take?

This can vary on a huge range of factors, including the work that you need to do on your property itself to prepare for the installation. The actual construction of the physical pool takes very little time as our one-piece pools are simply craned into a previously excavated hole, rather than having to go through the lengthy process of adding concrete and tiles.
