NORTHERN BEACHES. DEE WHY

Concrete pool builders in Dee Why.

Steel-reinforced concrete pools drawn for beach, lagoon and hill blocks in Dee Why. Designed and built by a family practice in Belrose since 1968.

Building in Dee Why

A pool drawn to the block.

Dee Why is the busy heart of the beaches, mixing apartments near the centre with family homes on the hill. Most blocks sit on sand near the coast, sandstone on the hill, with the land flat near the beach and lagoon, rising to the headland. We read those conditions before a line goes on the page.

On a Dee Why site the first question is access, and here that means mixed, from open beachside blocks to tight units and steep upper streets. Once that is sorted we draw the shell to the block. A lap pools is the build we put on these blocks most often.

Dee Why is about 13 minutes from Belrose, so our supervisors are on sites nearby through the week. One Wright supervisor stays on your project from excavation to handover, with no subcontractor chain.

Local conditions

What building in Dee Why involves.

01
Ground
Sand near the coast, sandstone on the hill, which sets how the shell is reinforced.
02
Slope
The land here is flat near the beach and lagoon, rising to the headland, so the design works with the fall.
03
Access
Mixed, from open beachside blocks to tight units and steep upper streets.
04
Coastal exposure
Open ocean frontage near the beach, and the finishes are specified to match.
05
Council
Dee Why Lagoon is an ICOLL, so blocks on the lagoon flats carry a flood control.
06
Distance
About 13 minutes from Belrose.

Pool styles

What suits a Dee Why block.

A
Lap pools
Long, narrow shells built for a swim before the day starts. Low waste, quiet plant.
B
Plunge pools
Compact concrete shells for tight blocks. Built to the same standard as a full lap pool.
C
View-facing pools
Shells set to read with the outlook, the edge lined up with the horizon.

Our process

Four steps, start to handover.

01
Consultation and site visit
We meet at your home, walk the space, listen to the brief. No charge, no pressure.
02
Design and engineering
We draft the pool to suit the architecture and the soil. Structural engineering happens in house.
03
Construction
Excavation, steel, shotcrete, finish. Our supervisors stay on the project from day one to handover.
04
Handover and care
A full walk-through of pump, filter, lighting and care. Our team stays available long after handover.

Frequently asked

Dee Why pool questions.

Can you build a pool on a difficult Dee Why block?
Yes. Mixed, from open beachside blocks to tight units and steep upper streets. A concrete pool is drawn to the space, so a compact shell is built to the same standard as a long lap pool. We assess the block at the site visit before pricing.
Will a concrete pool last in Dee Why's coastal conditions?
Yes. Open ocean frontage near the beach. A steel-reinforced shell with the right interior, coping and marine-grade fittings is engineered for that exposure, which is why concrete has lasted on this coast for decades.
How far is Dee Why from your base?
Dee Why is about 13 minutes from Belrose. We build across the whole Northern Beaches, so our supervisors are on sites nearby regularly.
