Plunge Pools

Want a pool but don’t have the space? Plunge pools are an excellent little option, and the ideal way to bring a cool change to that stinking hot summer.

There’s no denying that blocks in Sydney are getting smaller. People are downsizing to accommodate the increasing costs of living. Blocks are being subdivided and duplexes are plentiful. It’s meant that over the last few years, pools are getting smaller, too. Plunge pools are an excellent solution, offering a gorgeous water view for inner city terraces in Glebe to acreages in  Appin.

Little Pool, Big Relax: Plunge Pools are the perfect option for smaller spaces.

So what is a plunge pool? We’re so glad you asked.

A plunge pool is just a small pool! It’s a perfect addition to any home, even if your space is limited. Plunge pools are efficient to heat, absolutely stunning to look at, and the perfect place to cool down in summer. You can add jets to your plunge pool so it resembles a spa, or increase the depth to enable more swim space.

When we design your plunge pool, we want to get to know everything about you and what your needs are. We want to know why you want a plunge pool, and how you think you’re going to use it. We want to know what makes you tick, how you’re thinking and feeling about your outdoor space, and why it is you think a plunge pool is the best option.

We’re big believers in the value a pool brings to the time you spend at home, and plunge pools offer the perfect solution for those of you who just don’t have the space to invest in a big one. If you’re thinking about a plunge pool, we would so love to chat. We’re pretty obsessed with pools, and can’t wait to talk to you about your awesome plans for a brand new plunge pool.
