Where We Build

Built For The Southern Highlands

Servicing Bowral, Moss Vale, Mittagong, Berrima, Robertson, Burrawang, Kangaroo Valley, Bundanoon.

Whether you're a busy family wanting to complete your dream home, or a couple ready to create the perfect Southern Highlands outdoor space for grandchildren and family gatherings, you need a contractor you can genuinely trust to get it right the first time.

We also build across the Wollondilly side of the Highlands, including Bargo, Picton and Thirlmere. Whether your approval runs through Wingecarribee Shire Council or Wollondilly Shire Council, we manage it as part of the project.

The Highland Climate

A Pool For All Four Seasons

Frosty mornings in Bowral don't have to mean a six-month swimming season. We design every Southern Highlands pool for year-round use, with heating options across heat pumps, solar and gas, and equipment selected for the cooler climate. We'll advise on the best system for your property during the design consultation.

Year-Round Heating

Heat pump, solar and gas options sized for Highland winters, so the water is ready when you are.

Elevated Blocks

Structural and drainage design suited to the sloping, elevated sites common across the region.

Character Homes

Pools and gardens designed to sit naturally alongside the architectural character of Highlands properties.

Good To Know

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the advantages of choosing a concrete pool?

Concrete pools offer high customisation, allowing for unique shapes and designs. Saltleaf can guide you through all your options to ensure a successful project. Concrete pools are also highly durable and can be designed to blend seamlessly with the surrounding landscape.

Do you service my part of the Southern Highlands?

Yes. Saltleaf is a licensed concrete pool builder servicing the whole Southern Highlands, including Bowral, Moss Vale, Mittagong, Berrima, Robertson, Burrawang, Kangaroo Valley and Bundanoon, and the Wollondilly towns of Bargo, Picton and Thirlmere. We bring our full design and construction team to every project regardless of location.

Can a pool really be used year-round in the Highland climate?

Absolutely. We design all our Southern Highlands pools with year-round use in mind, with heating options across heat pumps, solar and gas to extend your swimming season through the cooler months. We'll advise on the best system for your property during the design consultation.

Can I choose between salt and mineral water?

All of our pool systems allow you to choose between salt and mineral water. Once we have finished, you can change between salt and mineral at any time, so you're the best judge of what works for your family. We believe in a transparent discussion around your water sanitation system to ensure your family is swimming in only the best kept water.

Are you licensed and insured?

Saltleaf holds current NSW Fair Trading licences for both pool building and structural landscaping. We are insured and members of both The Landscape Association and SPASA, with over 15 years of experience, and we continually collaborate with some of the best in the industry.

How long does a concrete pool take to build?

Building a concrete pool typically takes anywhere from 3 to 6 months on average, depending on whether the scope is just a pool or includes additional landscaping and structures. Generally your pool shell is installed within 2 weeks, then cures for 4 weeks before the finishes can start. We normally use those 4 weeks to get the landscaping started around the pool area.

Do you help with council approvals?

Yes, we love working with our clients right from the start. We discuss your pool requirements, develop the design with you, and prepare the drawings and 3D renders that go with your application. Approval is then either a CDC through a private certifier or a DA through Wingecarribee Shire Council or Wollondilly Shire Council, depending on your property. Let us take care of the paperwork so you can focus on the fun part.

Can you complete the landscaping as well as the pool?

Yes, Saltleaf has a team of experienced, qualified landscapers who can complete your whole project: decks, pergolas and extensions, tiling, paving and concreting works, water features, garden lighting, outdoor kitchens and custom furniture. We can also source and install detailed planting layouts, turf and irrigation to protect your new space.
