Imagine creating your own personal oasis that’s designed to fulfill your dream of having an exclusive Muskoka resort in your backyard. Today, the evolution of the in ground swimming pool is such that the pool is now the centerpiece of a larger landscaped environment with enough sizes, shapes and styles to make it uniquely your own. No one understands this evolution better than the people at Robcon Pools. Like the business itself, this company has grown in the last thirty years from being a small family-owned business to becoming a major player in the design, construction and maintenance of state-of-the-art, in ground swimming pools in the Greater Toronto Area.

Like many other contemporary builders, Robcon built their reputation by finishing each project on time, within budget and including an ongoing service program to ensure their pools remain worry-free and always there to be enjoyed.

As Robcon’s professional explains, “The average homeowner is now landscaping their pool so that it is much more aesthetically pleasing to the eye. People entertain in their backyards…that’s their getaway. We’ve been in the business a long time and can offer the owner a complete package where we do all the work ourselves. Nothing is sub-contracted out. Everything is built to last.” Whether it’s a rough-hewn cottage look you’re after with rockery, waterfalls and natural decks; a Roman spa; a Polynesian paradise; or an ultra-modern lap pool for your Olympic hopefuls, Robcon can install them all. They can also help you bring your own ideas into sharper focus by providing ‘poolscape’ sketches.

Each in ground pool is constructed in the same manner using optimum materials to withstand Canadian winters. This includes a poured concrete floor, steel retaining walls and a tough vinyl liner. The pool shape may be customized to fit the limits of your space and imagination. With a gas heater, or a combination of gas and solar heating, an ideal temperature can be maintained into the cooler autumn months. With the advent of the salt-water purifier, which manufactures its own chlorine, you never have to add chemicals to treat your water. This makes the water feel softer creating a much more sensuous bathing experience-eliminating the sting from red eyes, bleached bathing suits and hair associated with caustic chemicals.
