Block & Liner Kit for DIY Pool: Everything you need to build your own swimming pool at an affordable price, and an asset to anyone's garden - so you can holiday at home year after year!
-
Block & Liner: With a Block & Liner Pool Kit the walls are constructed from solid concrete blocks and form the shape of the pool. These and the floor are then rendered and covered with a tailor made, very strong and flexible vinyl liner which can be supplied in different patterns and colours. This type of pool is suited to the more competent DIY enthusiast, although obviously different jobs can be contracted out to make it easier, such as the plastering to ensure a smooth finish.
-
Brief Outline: A pool is dug out either by a mechanical excavator or by hand, to the dimensions given in the booklet. A concrete foundation is laid around the perimeter of the pool on which the pool walls are built. The pool walls are made out of 450mm x 225mm x 100mm (18” x 9” x 4”) solid concrete blocks laid to a height of 1.06m (3’6”) (9 courses laid on their side). On completion of the walls they are rendered with a thin skim of sand/cement to present a smooth face to the liner. A special plastic extrusion is fitted to the top of the wall into which the pool liner is clipped. A 50mm (2”) layer of sand cement is screeded to create the pool floor. When the pool shell is complete the liner is fitted, filling can commence and the copings can be laid.
