Yes. We offer pool heat pump installation in Durban, including practical sizing guidance and setup planning so the heat pump matches your pool and performs reliably.

Yes. We provide pool heating repairs in Durban and troubleshoot common issues like inconsistent heating, reduced output, and heating systems that stop working correctly.

Costs depend on pool size, the heating system chosen, and installation requirements. Once we know your pool size and what you want to achieve, we can recommend a practical option and provide a clear quote.

For many homeowners, yes — especially if you want to swim more often, avoid cold water after rain, and get more lifestyle value from your pool. Heating is also popular for households that use the pool in the mornings or evenings.

Yes. Covers often improve heating results because they reduce heat loss and evaporation. This can help the pool stay warmer for longer and reduce how hard the heater needs to work.

It depends on pool size, starting temperature, desired temperature, weather conditions, and the heater capacity. We’ll set realistic expectations once we understand your pool and your goals.

Yes. We cover Durban suburbs including uMhlanga, Durban North, La Lucia, Westville and surrounding areas, subject to scheduling.

Yes. We provide pool covers in Durban and offer supply guidance and pool cover installation based on your pool type and your goals.

Pricing depends on your pool size, the cover type, and installation requirements. Once we confirm your pool dimensions and what you want the cover to achieve, we’ll provide a clear quote.

For many homeowners, yes. Covers reduce debris, help reduce evaporation and chemical loss, and can make pool maintenance easier — especially during stormy or high-use periods.

They can help by keeping debris out and reducing sunlight exposure in some cases, but algae prevention still relies on proper filtration and water balance. A cover is a strong support tool, not a complete replacement for maintenance.

Safety is one of the biggest reasons Durban homeowners consider cover solutions. The right option can improve peace of mind, especially for families with children or pets.

Yes. We service Durban suburbs including uMhlanga, Durban North, La Lucia, Westville, and surrounding areas, subject to scheduling.

It depends on the cover type and pool layout. Once we confirm the option and scope, we’ll provide realistic installation expectations upfront.

Yes. We provide pool leak detection in Durban, helping homeowners diagnose ongoing water loss and identify the most likely leak zone so repairs can be done correctly.

Some water loss is normal due to evaporation and backwashing, especially in warm months. But if you’re topping up frequently or the level drops fast repeatedly, it’s worth investigating properly. We can help you confirm whether it’s likely a leak and what to check next.

Costs depend on the investigation required and how complex the leak appears to be. Once we understand your symptoms and pool setup, we can advise the most practical diagnostic approach and quote clearly.

Yes. We provide pool leak repairs in Durban and recommend the correct fix based on the actual cause — whether it’s plumbing-related, structural, or fitting-related.

Leaks commonly occur in underground plumbing, at fittings and connection points, or through cracks/structural issues in the pool shell. The right fix depends on correctly identifying the leak source.

It can be. Leaks increase water costs, can damage the area around the pool, and may lead to ground movement or undermining over time — especially during rainy seasons. Fixing leaks early usually prevents bigger problems later.

Yes. We cover Durban suburbs including uMhlanga, Durban North, La Lucia, Mount Edgecombe, Westville and many surrounding areas, subject to scheduling.

Yes. Weekly pool cleaning is one of our most popular options in Durban because it keeps water stable and prevents algae and cloudiness from taking over, especially in summer and during rainy periods.

Yes. Monthly maintenance can work for lower-use pools or pools that are covered often, but we’ll advise honestly whether monthly is realistic for your pool’s condition and exposure.

Costs depend on pool size, condition, and service frequency. A clear pool on a weekly plan is priced differently from a once-off green pool clean-up. The best way to quote accurately is to confirm your suburb, pool type, and what you need.

Yes. We offer green pool clean-ups and recovery support. The key is restoring clarity and stabilising chemistry and filtration performance so the pool doesn’t go green again immediately.

Cloudy water often returns when circulation/filtration is struggling, or when chemistry keeps drifting. We look at the practical causes — not just “add more chemicals” — so the fix actually lasts.

Yes. While cleaning, we keep an eye on basic pump/filter performance and obvious issues. If something looks off, we’ll let you know and recommend the best next step.

Yes. We service many Durban suburbs including uMhlanga, Durban North, La Lucia, Mount Edgecombe, Westville, and surrounding areas, subject to scheduling.

Yes. We provide jacuzzi installation in Durban, including placement guidance, base planning, and setup coordination so the final result is safe, neat, and reliable.

Yes. We handle hot tub repairs in Durban, helping with common problems like heating issues, pump faults, jets not working properly, and performance troubleshooting.

Costs vary based on the installation setup, base/platform requirements, access to the site, and whether you’re integrating the hot tub into a wider outdoor upgrade. The best way to price accurately is to confirm the scope and site conditions, then quote clearly.

Heating issues can be caused by several factors, including component wear, circulation problems, or system faults. If your water won’t heat or heats inconsistently, we can assess likely causes and recommend the correct fix.

A small drop can sometimes be normal, but ongoing water loss may indicate a leak or another issue. If you’re topping up constantly, share the symptoms and we’ll advise the best next step.

Yes — outdoor installations are common. The key is correct placement, sensible protection (like a good cover), stable base planning, and practical access for future servicing.

It depends on the site setup and any preparation needed. Simple installations can be completed faster, while jobs requiring more prep or coordination may take longer. We’ll set expectations once we understand your scope.

Yes, depending on scope. Many homeowners choose to upgrade the surrounding space so the hot tub feels like part of a complete outdoor entertainment area.

Yes — we provide pool paving in Durban, including new paving installations and replacements of old or unsafe surrounds. We focus on clean finishes, safe surfaces, and practical drainage planning.

Yes — we offer pool decking in Durban where it suits the space and the overall design. We’ll recommend the best option based on your pool layout, usage, and the look you want to achieve.

It depends on what you want. Pool paving is typically chosen for durability and low maintenance. Decking is often chosen for a softer, resort-style look. We’ll recommend the best fit based on your space, your budget, and Durban’s conditions.

Absolutely. If your current paving is cracked, uneven, slippery, or looks outdated, we can remove/replace it as part of a pool surround upgrade and improve drainage where needed.

Proper fall (slope), correct surface planning, and smart drainage routing are key — especially in Durban’s rainy months. We plan the surround so water moves away from the pool and entertainment areas instead of pooling where you walk.

Yes — around any pool, safety matters. We prioritise finishes and design choices that reduce slip risk without sacrificing the premium look.

Costs depend on the area size, removal of existing surfaces, drainage needs, access, and the finishing level. The most accurate pricing comes from a quick assessment so we can quote based on your actual site.

Yes. Pool renovations are one of the best times to upgrade surrounds, because the area can be planned as one complete outdoor space.

Timelines depend on surface area, prep work, weather, and whether you’re replacing existing materials. Once we know your scope, we’ll give you realistic timelines upfront.

Yes. We provide pool repairs in Durban, including leak-related problems, circulation issues, and repairs that restore proper function and reduce ongoing headaches.

Yes. If your pool is old, worn, or outdated — or if multiple issues keep coming back — we offer pool renovations in Durban that refresh both performance and appearance.

Some water loss is normal due to evaporation and backwashing, especially in warmer months. But if the water level drops quickly or you’re topping up constantly, it’s worth investigating. We’ll help you assess whether it’s normal loss or a likely leak.

Costs vary based on the cause of the problem and the scope of work required. A small targeted repair is very different from a renovation that includes multiple upgrades. The best way to get accurate pricing is a quick assessment so we can quote based on real conditions.

Renovation pricing depends on what you’re renovating — surface condition, surrounds, features, plumbing performance, and the finish level you want. Once we understand your goals and the pool’s condition, we’ll provide a clear quote.

In many cases, yes — but it depends on what the crack is telling you. Some cracks are surface-level, while others may indicate deeper movement or structural issues. We’ll assess the crack type and recommend the correct repair approach.

Often it’s not only about chemicals. Poor circulation, filtration issues, and hidden maintenance problems can cause water to turn repeatedly. If this keeps happening, it’s worth checking the system and overall performance instead of only treating symptoms.

Yes, depending on scope. Many renovations include repairs or upgrades to coping, edging, and surrounding paving so the pool area looks finished and safe.

Small repairs can be completed quickly, while renovations take longer depending on the scope and finishing level. After an assessment, we’ll give you a realistic timeline so you know what to expect.

Yes. If an assessment shows that a repair/renovation isn’t the best value, we can advise on a new build route — including fibreglass installation or custom concrete/gunite construction — based on your property and budget.

Yes. Gunite (sprayed concrete/shotcrete) is a popular choice for high-end homes and custom builds in Durban because it supports bespoke designs, premium detailing, and feature integration. It’s ideal when you want a pool that’s designed around your lifestyle and outdoor space.

Yes — Premium Pools provides gunite and concrete pool construction in Durban, including full construction support from planning and excavation through to finishing guidance and handover. We also help you choose features and a finish level that matches your property.

A concrete pool is the broader category. Gunite (or shotcrete) is one of the most common methods used to build a concrete pool shell by spraying concrete into place. People often say “gunite pool” to describe a premium custom concrete pool.

Costs vary based on size, complexity, access, slope/drainage requirements, and the finish level (paving, decking, lighting, water features, etc.). The most accurate way to price a custom pool is a site assessment so we can quote based on real conditions and your preferred design.

Custom pool timelines depend on complexity, access, weather, and finishing scope. After your site visit, we’ll provide a realistic timeline based on your design, your property layout, and what finishes you want completed around the pool.

Yes. Sloped properties are common in Upper Highway suburbs. The key is correct planning around levels, access, drainage, and sequencing. We assess these factors during the consultation and recommend the best approach for a durable, well-finished result.

Requirements can vary depending on the property and local rules. In many cases you’ll need to consider safety and compliance requirements. We’ll guide you on what’s typically expected and what you should confirm so your project moves forward correctly.

Absolutely. Custom builds are the best time to plan upgrades because they integrate more cleanly during construction. We can include options like water features, lighting, paving, decking, and automation depending on your scope and budget.

It depends on your goals. Fibreglass can be excellent for speed and practicality. Concrete/gunite is best when you want fully bespoke design freedom and premium detailing. We’ll help you choose based on your budget, timelines, and the style you want.

Yes. If you have an existing pool that needs structural work, updates, or modern finishes, we also offer pool repairs and renovations in Durban and can advise on the best route forward.

Yes — we’re experienced fibreglass pool installers in Durban, offering end-to-end installation from planning and excavation through to finishing guidance and handover. If you searched “fibreglass pools near me” or “pool installation near me”, we’ll confirm availability quickly based on your suburb.

Costs vary depending on pool size/model, access to the yard, ground conditions, drainage requirements, and how much finishing work you include (coping, paving, decking, lighting, and other upgrades). The most accurate way to price your project is a short site visit so we can quote based on real conditions and your preferred finish level.

Fibreglass is often chosen because installation can be quicker than a fully custom build, but timelines still depend on access, weather, and surrounding finishes. After a site visit, we’ll give you a realistic installation timeline based on your property and scope.

Yes — fibreglass can be an excellent choice in Durban when installed properly and maintained correctly. We help you plan sensible drainage, filtration, and placement so your pool performs well through humid summers and heavy rainfall periods.

In many cases, yes. There are fibreglass pool options designed for smaller gardens and modern properties. The key is choosing a size that fits your space while still leaving room for paving/decking and outdoor living.

Yes — many Durban homes (especially in Upper Highway areas like Kloof and Hillcrest) have sloped yards. During the consultation we assess access, levels, and drainage planning, then advise the best approach for a stable, long-lasting installation.

Requirements can vary depending on the property and local rules. In many cases you’ll need to consider safety and compliance requirements. We’ll guide you on what’s typically expected and what you should confirm so the project moves forward correctly.

We structure quotes to be clear so you can compare properly. Your quote will reflect the pool option chosen and the installation scope, along with any finishing work and upgrades you include (such as paving, decking, lighting, water features, or automation options).

Absolutely. This is often the best time to integrate upgrades because it’s easier and more efficient to plan them during installation than to retrofit later.

Yes. If you already have a pool that’s leaking, outdated, or needs a refresh, we also offer pool repairs and renovations in Durban and can advise whether it’s better to repair, renovate, or replace.

Yes — we’re experienced pool builders and pool installers in Durban, offering full installation from consultation and excavation through to finishing and handover. If you searched “pool installation near me”, the best fit is a team that can manage the complete project properly, not just one stage of the job.

Pool construction costs in Durban depend on the pool type (fibreglass vs concrete/gunite), size, access for excavation, and the finishing level you choose (paving, coping, decking, lighting, water features, and more). The most accurate way to price your project is a site assessment so we can quote based on your actual property conditions and the finish you want.

We can provide a rough range after a quick chat about pool type, size, and finishes — but a proper quote usually requires a short site visit. That’s how we avoid surprises and keep the installation scope clear from the start.

Timelines depend on whether you’re installing fibreglass or building a custom concrete/gunite pool, plus weather and access. Fibreglass installations are typically faster, while custom pools take longer due to build and finishing stages. After a site visit, we’ll give you a realistic timeline based on your scope.

Both work well when installed properly. Fibreglass is often chosen for quicker installation and easier maintenance, while concrete/gunite is ideal for premium custom designs and advanced features. We’ll recommend the best fit after looking at your site, budget, and how you plan to use the pool.

Yes. We work across the greater Durban area, including uMhlanga, Durban North, La Lucia, Mount Edgecombe, Westville, Berea, and surrounding suburbs, and we also cover select outer areas like Umdloti, Tongaat, Verulam, Ballito, and Amanzimtoti where access and timelines make sense.

Yes. Sloped sites are common in areas like Kloof and Hillcrest. The key is correct planning around excavation, drainage, and structural requirements. During the consultation, we assess slope and access, then recommend the best approach for safety and long-term durability.

Requirements can vary depending on your property and local rules. In many cases you’ll need to consider safety and compliance requirements. We’ll guide you on what’s typically required and what you should confirm so your project moves forward correctly.

Absolutely — the build stage is usually the best time to plan upgrades like water features, lighting, automation, paving, or decking. It’s more efficient to integrate these properly during construction than to retrofit later.

Yes. If you already have a pool that’s leaking, outdated, or needs a modern refresh, we also offer pool repair and renovation services in Durban, including upgrades to finishes, features, and surrounding areas.
