Brackstone Builders - Patios, Ponds and Swimming Pools
Swimming Pools
Swimming pools can add a new dimension to your home and at Brackstone Builders we have extensive experience of dealing with some of the difficult logistical challenges swimming pool construction can present.
Brackstones of Devizes have built pools in basements, into hillsides and in a Mediterranean style – we’re happy to meet the challenge. Many swimming pool construction projects evolve as they go along – and we have been able to provide major improvements to some by being flexible and adapting as we go - but with Brackstone Building you won’t get any surprise bills at the end of the project because at each new development we will evaluate the cost and explain to you how this will affect your budget – no surprises and no hidden extras.

Coulston, Devizes, WiltshireConstruction of a walled patio area and swimming poolAs part of a larger project, we constructed a large wall in Michelmersh handmade bricks together with a swimming pool with all of the associated pipework. We created a tropical style walled garden and laid a blue limestone patio. Our clients have said that on a sunny day it actually feels like they are in the tropics.
We built a very large, wrap-around extension in keeping with the existing dwelling but differentiated only because it has yet to weather in. Considerable attention to detail is required when matching into existing using natural materials. |
Potterne, WiltshireLarge swimming pool, walls, patios and landscaping.A great example of how Brackstone’s offer complete building solutions, this project presented us with some extremely difficult logistical challenges.
The pool area was excavated out of a large bank and we had to move some pretty heavy plant into an area between two adjacent properties in order to remove thousands of tonnes of spoil. We created a 15m x 6m pool and project managed all the specialists services required to install the pool and bring it into service. We built Cotswold stone retaining walls and laid large Indian Sandstone patios to complete the project. Since its completion we have carried out two further projects for the client. |
Easterton, Devizes, WiltshirePool, Patios and Garden MakeoverWe were commissioned to remove a rather dated concrete patio and refurbish the pool which we had constructed 10 years earlier.
We built Cotswold stone retaining walls and a large Indian Sandstone patio and also provided the base work to enable a log style cabin to act as a changing room to be constructed. |

Steeple Ashton, Trowbridge WiltshireLarge garden room, structural alterations and patiosAlthough Brackstone Builders has become well known for work on period properties, we are equally at home working on modern properties as in this instance where we were commissioned to remove a bay window and to construct a contemporary garden room with a large Indian sandstone patio.
The scheme is sympathetic to the style of the property but presented some logistical challenges in manoeuvring large RSJ steels and hoisting them into position. The job also included substantial internal alterations including removing large walls to create open and spacious rooms at this relatively modern property. |

Bishop CanningsOur clients required a curved, semi-circular patio with Staffordshire Blue engineering bricks incorporated into the treads. The photos do not do it justice but the slab work was extremely precise using a policed milled sandstone.

Construction of Koi Carp Pond Coulston, WiltshireGarden Pond ConstructionWe were commissioned to construct a five-foot deep pond with hedges at appropriate intervals and install a heavy gauge butyl rubber liner and lay Cotswold stone around the perimeter. We also ran clean Cerney shingle around the pond area.
Establishment was very quick and, within two months, thanks to a few shrubs and lilies, the pond looked as if it had been there for many years. |
