Pool design and build
A new pool should feel as though it has always belonged. We design complete pool environments around the house, the garden and the way you live — bringing the pool, terracing, landscaping, pool house, lighting and wellness spaces together as one considered setting.
Because Freedom Pools is part of The Trade Collective, our work goes beyond the pool itself. From the first sketch through to construction and finishing, the wider environment is considered as one project and delivered by our own team alongside trusted specialists. The result is a cohesive outdoor space, rather than a collection of separate elements added over time.
We work across the Cotswolds, Wiltshire, Oxfordshire, Berkshire and Hampshire, and every project begins the same way: a conversation, a visit and a first sketch.
A pool designed around the property
Every pool begins with its setting. We consider the architecture of the house, the character of the garden, changes in level, key views and the way sunlight moves across the space throughout the day.
Access and intended use are considered from the outset too — whether the pool is designed for family life, entertaining, exercise or quiet relaxation. The result is a pool environment that feels naturally connected to both the property and the way you live.

One team.
Greater control.
The majority of the work on your pool is carried out by our own team — from groundworks and construction through to finishes and the technical installation. It gives us greater control over quality, sequencing and the details that can easily get lost between separate trades.
Where a project calls for specialist expertise, we work with trusted subcontractors who fit the way we work. The project remains coordinated as one build, with a clear point of responsibility throughout.

Why Freedom Pools
One coordinated team
The majority of the construction and finishing is carried out by our own team, giving us greater control over the build from start to finish.
Pool engineering in-house
Our pool engineers look after the technical systems behind the pool, including filtration, heating, controls and water treatment.
More than the pool itself
As part of The Trade Collective, we can consider the pool alongside terracing, landscaping, pool houses and the wider setting.
Specialists when required
Where specialist expertise is needed, we work with trusted subcontractors we know and work with regularly, while the project remains coordinated as one build.
