Frequently asked
Rooftop pool questions.
Can you build a pool on the roof of a heritage building?
Yes. The Old Clare Hotel pool runs along the roof of the heritage building, tiled in deep teal mosaic and edged with timber decking. Working on a heritage roof means the pool and its structure have to sit within the existing building, which we plan for from the start.
Do you build rooftop and communal pools for hotels?
Yes. Wright Pools builds rooftop, communal and commercial pools across Sydney, and has done so since 1968 under NSW builder licence 246552C. This one was built for hotel guests among the brick and render of the original building.
How do you keep the outlook open on a rooftop pool?
Frameless glass holds the safety edge without blocking the view, so the pool stays open to the city skyline. The teal mosaic and timber deck keep the finish warm against the heritage facade.
