A daunting Pool renovation tackled beautifully by Mayfair Pools Nelson

Our Projects
Written By Kim Manunui

The Coppell family, upon buying their family property in Mapua, inherited an epic, incredibly large – and sadly neglected – swimming pool.

They had unsuccessfully sought a company to undertake the work to refurbish the pool back to its former glory but no-one was willing to take on such a daunting project.

They were then referred to Mayfair Pools Nelson. Never afraid to take on the difficult, Craig, with great enthusiasm took up the challenge!

It would prove to be one of the most rewarding projects the team have worked on to date. 

It is a massive pool – 2.5m deep centrally and with a water capacity of 240,000 litres. With a faulty waterfall feature, leaking floor jets and crumbling tiles – it was well overdue for an overhaul. Along with electrical faults, blocked drains and large areas of failing fibreglass on the pool floor, the scope of work required was immense.

Not one to just “patch” things up, the attention to detail required to get all structures up to standard to achieve a quality finish, meant extensive time spent in preparation.

Being located on a low-lying coastal site, the pool was set well below the water table and there were challenges a plenty during the refurbishment.

The Coppell’s have been incredible clients, understanding the pitfalls and unknown surprises that accompany all renovation work. They placed their trust in the Mayfair Team to deliver a high end finished product – and deliver it they did!

Hi, I’m Kim and I work with a great team to help individuals, as well as small and not so small businesses get their message, product and services to the world using digital media and creating wonderful websites that don’t cost the earth.

I was born in Canada, and grew up around Vancouver and the mountains of British Columbia. My love of pristine environments led me to New Zealand and eventually to the mountains, lakes and rivers of the central North Island which is home. My family’s heritage is here, and it’s from here that Korio traverses the planet.

The digital world is never static and neither are we.

And I say ‘we’ because I work with an awesome group of talented people who I gather together as required to complete a project.  Whatever your business, not-for-profit or individual needs are we gather the best team to get the job done.

Collaboratively we are creative, share sustainable values and work hard for great outcomes because that’s the buzz of satisfaction that drives us.
