Make your pool speak louder

There is nothing wrong with making a statement. Might as well make a thorough one!

From the car you drive, to the place you call “home”, your lifestyle makes a statement. Consider these: put bar chairs in the pool, add your own custom-made swim lane or install a pool and Jacuzzi combination.

We work hard to make a living, fighting the “odds”. Nothing is easy in life. Therefore, if you are in the position to build that dream house, speak to us at LicPool to assist with a pool that emphasizes your lifestyle.

To make a pool stand out, it is important to work with the surrounding elements in the area. There is something about palm trees and water. Palm trees give a Mediterranean feeling. We are currently working on a project where the owner really jumped at the opportunity of combining green elements with the pool. The result is an oasis. If the pool is placed where there is a view, it makes sense to look at a rim flow option. If the pool is inside the house, consider linking it to a sunken bar.

Making that statement is thus a combination of the right elements. The end result is eye candy, every time you look at it.

Placement of the lights inside the pool is also crucial. The type of light and the colour of the light are some of the main concerns you need to focus on. Also, we live in an era where just about everything utilizes Wi-Fi. Ask your pool installer for a Wi-Fi module in the pool DB box. This allows you to control pool functions from your phone or a central control point. Your maximalist expression is only complete when it is executed to a T!

On the flip side, there is a thin line between “creaming it” and getting it completely wrong: In recent years I have often been requested to quote on repairing pools of other contractors who saw something in a magazine and tried to copy it. Unfortunately, their product ended up far from the front-page pool they intended to replicate: Steps are out of proportion, the heating takes forever, pool lights are placed in spots where changing them means taking a swim...

In summary, come and visit us at Macadam Street and let’s assist you in not just constructing a pool, but also in making just the right statement to your taste.

Until next time.
