NORTHERN BEACHES. OXFORD FALLS

Concrete pool builders in Oxford Falls.

Steel-reinforced concrete pools drawn for rural valley blocks in Oxford Falls. Designed and built by a family practice in Belrose since 1968.

Building in Oxford Falls

A pool drawn to the block.

Oxford Falls is a rural valley of acreage homes between sandstone ridges and the creek. The blocks run on sandstone escarpment over an alluvial valley floor, a flat valley floor below steep sandstone faces. Each of those things changes how a pool is engineered.

Access shapes the build before anything else. In Oxford Falls that means creek-line drainage on the flats and rock on the slopes. From there we draft a concrete shell to the slope and the light, often a freeform pools on a block like this.

Oxford Falls is about 8 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 Oxford Falls involves.

01
Ground
Sandstone escarpment over an alluvial valley floor, and the dig is priced from it.
02

The land here is a flat valley floor below steep sandstone faces, so the design works with the fall.
03
Access
Creek-line drainage on the flats and rock on the slopes.
04
Coastal exposure
Inland, no salt exposure.
05
Council
The valley floor carries flood controls and the slopes are bush-fire prone.

Frequently asked

Oxford Falls pool questions.

Can you build a pool on a difficult Oxford Falls block?
Yes. Creek-line drainage on the flats and rock on the slopes. 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.
What does a bush or inland block in Oxford Falls mean for the pool?
Inland, no salt exposure. We still engineer the shell for the ground and the slope, and any bush-fire or drainage controls are built into the design and the approval.
How far is Oxford Falls from your base?
Oxford Falls is about 8 minutes from Belrose. We build across the whole Northern Beaches, so our supervisors are on sites nearby regularly.
