From an old school pool to stunning Oasis: Pool Fill and Tank Refill on Tenfoot Road, Taupiri
We love jobs that come with a bit of history attached.
Last month we headed out to a beautiful rural lifestyle property on Tenfoot Road in Taupiri. It was one of those peaceful spots with wide open views towards their paddocks and plenty of room to breathe.
The owners have done something really special here. The original building on the site was once a local schoolhouse which the builder carefully renovated into a loving family home full of charm. Then they added a modern, beautifully designed house right next door. But the real standout? They kept the old school swimming pool shell, built a custom liner into it and finished it with white fibre glass. That white finish turns the water into an incredible crystal blue one that gives you that proper tropical resort vibes in the heart of the Waikato.

After all the hard work on the renovation, it was time to fill the swimming pool. They smartly used their own rainwater tanks for the bulk of it but still needed around 30,000 litres of fresh drinking water for the final topup to get it ready for the first dip.
We rolled in with the tanker, tide access but close to the pool area (they’ve created a fantastic outdoor entertaining space around it… decking, landscaping, the lot) and carefully pumped in those last 30,000 litres. Gentle flow to protect the new fibreglass and soon that white lining was glowing under the clearest blue water you’ve seen.
Job done but… a couple of days later the phone rang again. The tanks were now sitting empty after contributing so much to the pool fill. No worries, we were back the next day for a full water tank refill, topping them right up with clean potable water so the household was back to normal.
The customers were fantastic, friendly, organised, and clearly poured a huge amount of love (and elbow grease) into turning this historic property into their dream rural retreat.
Properties like this in Taupiri with a mix of character and modern luxury, don’t come along every day. And when they include a show stopping pool like this one? Even better.
