One builder, four ways to put water in your backyard.
Most pool companies sell you the one type they know how to build. We design and install all four, then recommend the one that suits your site, your family and your budget.
Every project is designed in-house and built by our own crews, excavation, steel, shell, plumbing, equipment, coping and patio. We do not sell weekly pool cleaning and we do not build outdoor kitchens. Pools are the whole job.
New construction
Full design-build of a new inground pool, engineered for your grade and soil.
Renovation
Replacing an aging shell, liner, coping, patio or equipment with one fixed scope.
Financing
Approved lending partners for most project sizes, structured around the build timeline.
Start with the type. Everything else follows.
Each type has a different cost, timeline and level of customisation. Here's the honest comparison.
Type 01
Gunite & Concrete
Fully custom. Any shape, any depth, any feature, engineered for your grade and soil.
Typically from $150k+
Type 02
Fiberglass
A finished shell, set in days. Smooth surface, low upkeep, dozens of Latham and Imagine models.
Typically from $135k+
Type 03
Vinyl Liner
The most shape flexibility for the money, with liner patterns you can refresh later.
Typically from $78k+
Type 04
Bio-Design
A natural swimming pond filtered by plants and gravel instead of chlorine.
Typically from $180k+

We'll tell you when a vinyl liner pool gets you 90% of the pool for 60% of the money.
The service I’ve received from Blue Lagoon Pools has been nothing short of amazing. Laurie Robinson has been instrumental in the planning and execution of the project from start to finish. Her customer service has been superb. If you’re looking for work or an installation then ladies and gentlemen look no further. Highly recommend
