The people behind the pools
A pool is a big decision.
You should know who’s building it.
Mermaid has been family-run since 1981. Today Steven and James lead the business, carrying forward the experience built across three generations. The value of that experience is not simply the number of years. It is knowing who is responsible for your project.

Before you begin
Questions about your pool project.
What affects the cost of a swimming pool?
The site, access, size, construction, finishes and equipment all shape the scope. Mermaid’s project records show different specifications for different properties. Discuss your own site for a project-specific proposal; there is no standard price published here.
How long does swimming pool construction take?
A programme depends on the property and the work involved. The Tunbridge Wells concrete pool was completed within four months, but that is a recorded project outcome, not a promised timescale for every pool.
Do you design, build and look after the pool?
Mermaid’s process covers consultation, design and specification, construction, commissioning and handover. Ongoing maintenance and servicing are also available.
Can an older swimming pool be refurbished?
Yes. Mermaid’s Biddenden, Brenchley and Sevenoaks projects retained existing structures after assessment. Testing establishes what can be kept and whether refurbishment is appropriate.
Where does Mermaid work?
London and the South East, including Kent, Surrey, East Sussex and West Sussex. Tell the team where your property is when discussing the project.
