Swimming pools in Al Barari gardens
A pool in a garden full of trees has to deal with shade, leaves and roots as well as sun. We plan new pools and pool renovations for Al Barari villas around those conditions, and handle the master developer's approval ourselves.

Pools in a green setting
Al Barari's character comes from its planting: themed gardens, water and trees around the homes. That makes a pool here more pleasant to sit beside and slightly more demanding to build and run. Shade from mature trees keeps parts of the water cooler, but it also brings leaves, flowers and seed pods into the pool. Roots near the excavation need thought. And a pool that looks right in an open, paved yard can look heavy in a planted garden. Our team builds both concrete and fibreglass pools and renovates old ones; for a planted garden we choose between skimmer, overflow, plunge pool and spa with the trees in mind.
Choices that change in a planted garden
Skimmer or overflow
Skimmers collect floating debris at set points; an overflow edge lets water spill over the whole perimeter into a channel. Where leaf fall is heavy, the choice of system and where the skimmers sit is a design decision, not an afterthought.
Position against the trees
We place the pool where it gets the light you want and keep the excavation clear of roots of trees you intend to keep.
Plunge pool or jacuzzi
Where the garden is mostly planting, a smaller plunge pool or spa keeps the green dominant while still giving you water.
Natural-looking edges
Coping, decking and planting can come close to the water, so the pool reads as part of the garden rather than a tiled box in it.
Lighting
Underwater and surrounding lights planned with the garden lighting, so the pool glows without lighting up the trees beyond your boundary.

Approval comes before excavation
What Al Barari's rules say
According to Al Barari's published rules on construction and modifications, any improvement, modification or alteration to a unit needs prior approval of the designs and plans from the master developer, in the form of a no-objection certificate. The rules also say that works adding built-up or gross floor area need the master developer's prior approval, and that as-built plans may be requested after completion.
For a pool, that means the drawings come first. We design the pool and its surroundings in 3D, prepare the submission and apply for the approval ourselves. The master developer sets its own documents, fees and timelines; we do not quote them here.
What changes the cost
The main drivers are the pool type and size, concrete or fibreglass construction, the filtration system and any heating or cooling, finishes inside the pool and on the deck, lighting, the amount of excavation and any work around trees or existing services, and access for machinery to the back of the plot. Renovations depend on what is found once the old finishes and equipment are opened up. A quotation follows the site visit.
