Thoughtfully Designed for Family Life

We know that no two families are the same, and that’s why every pool we build is tailored to your needs, your property, and your lifestyle. Here’s what makes our family pools stand out:

Safety First

Your family’s safety is our priority. Our pools can be designed with:

  • Non-slip surfaces
  • Gradual depth zones
  • Integrated handrails and wide entry steps
  • Optional compliant fencing and self-latching gates

We also build with parents' peace of mind in mind, ensuring open sightlines, shallow play areas, and secure access points.

Room to Move

Our family pools are sized and designed to avoid overcrowding, even on the busiest of summer days. We’ll recommend the right dimensions and depth based on how your family plans to use the pool, whether that’s lap swimming, pool volleyball, or a lazy afternoon float.

All-Ages Features

  • Wide steps and built-in seating for easy access and relaxation
  • Shallow ledges for little swimmers to play safely
  • Optional spa zones for the adults to unwind in luxury

Smart Extras for more Enjoyment

  • Heating systems for year-round swimming
  • Underwater lighting for evening ambience
  • Water features, shaded areas, or integrated landscaping for a true resort vibe

Our Pool Construction Process

At Oceanscape Pools, we’ve designed our building process to be simple, collaborative, and enjoyable from start to finish. Here’s how we work:

Initial Consulation

We’ll sit down with you (either on-site or virtually) to understand your vision, your family’s lifestyle, and how you plan to use your pool. Is it for energetic kids to play in after school? For early morning laps? Or for relaxed afternoons entertaining friends? No detail is too small. We want to know it all so we can build a family pool that truly fits your lifestyle.

Custom Design

Using everything we’ve learned, our design team will create a personalised family swimming pool plan. We consider layout, safety, aesthetics, and functionality, from pool depth and dimensions to step placement, seating, lighting, and more.

Council Approval

We manage all the permits and approvals needed to get your project underway, ensuring everything is up to code and stress-free for you. Whether you're in Sydney or Wollongong, we’re familiar with local council processes and know how to navigate them efficiently.

Pool Construction

Once the design is approved, our expert builders get to work. We use only the highest-quality materials and time-tested techniques to ensure your pool is durable and built to last. Our team treats your property with care and keeps the site clean and safe for you and your family.

Handover & Aftercare

When your pool is ready, we’ll walk you through everything you need to know, from maintaining your pool water to using your heating and lighting systems. We don’t just disappear after the handover—we’re only a phone call away if you need advice, troubleshooting, or referrals for trusted pool servicing.

Family Swimming Pool Maintenance Tips

To keep your pool sparkling clean and ready to enjoy every day, a little upkeep goes a long way. Here are some simple steps to keep your pool in top shape:

Regular Water Testing: Checking pH levels and chlorine weekly helps keep your water healthy and crystal clear.

Clean Filters and Skimmers: To prevent debris from building up, it’s recommended to quickly rinse your filter and clean out the skimmer basket.

Check Heating and Lighting Systems: Make sure everything is running smoothly, especially before the cooler months or an evening swim.

Professional Servicing: Consider a seasonal check-up from a licensed pool technician to handle the nitty-gritty and spot early issues.
