Infinity Pool Builders in Melbourne.

CUSTOM CONCRETE INFINITY POOLS DESIGNED TO MERGE WITH THE LANDSCAPE, HORIZON AND ARCHITECTURE OF YOUR HOME AND SITE.

What an Infinity Pool Builder Does

An infinity pool builder designs and builds a pool whose edge seems to disappear. The effect is achieved through precise hydraulic engineering, where water flows over the edge into a concealed catch basin before being recirculated back into the pool. The builder’s job is to make that work on your site, in concrete, with the edge held exactly level.

Fine Art Pools is an infinity pool builder for homes across metro Melbourne and the Mornington Peninsula, delivered entirely by our in-house team.

FREQUENTLY ASKED

Common Questions

How much does it cost to build an infinity pool?
Our custom concrete pools start from $120,000. The final figure for an infinity pool depends on its size, design complexity, site conditions and finish selections. We provide a clear breakdown at the quoting stage, so you see the full picture at the start rather than halfway through the build. For what shapes the figure, see our guide to the cost of a concrete pool in Melbourne.
What are the disadvantages of an infinity pool?
Cost is the main one. The hydraulics, catch basin and precision required during construction all add to it, which puts an infinity edge above a standard rectangular pool. The other is a little more equipment to look after, covered under maintenance below.
How does an infinity pool catch basin work?
It sits below the spill edge, out of sight, collecting the water that spills over so it can be recirculated into the pool. Its size is set for each pool rather than taken from a standard.
What is the difference between an infinity edge and a negative edge?
There isn’t one. Infinity edge, negative edge and vanishing edge are three names for the same pool: one or more edges set level with the water, so it spills over rather than stopping at a line of coping.
Do infinity pools suit sloping blocks?
Infinity pools are at their strongest on sloping blocks or elevated sites, where the pool edge frames a view. On a slope, the retaining walls, footings, drainage and hydraulics are considered from the outset, as part of the same design as the edge. See our pools for sloping blocks.
Can I have an infinity pool on a flat block?
Yes. Infinity edges can work on flat blocks with the right surrounding hardscape and landscape. On a flat site the edge looks towards the garden, a terrace or the home itself, so those surrounds are designed with the pool rather than after it.
Can an infinity edge be paired with a glass wall?
Yes. An infinity edge can be paired with a structural glass panel, so the water is seen from the side as well as from above. The glass, the shell and the edge are planned together from the start. See our glass wall pools.
What does ongoing maintenance involve?
Day-to-day maintenance is similar to a standard pool. The catch basin and secondary pump require periodic inspection. We cover this in full at handover.
