There is no real division between us or our trusted contractors; we work harmoniously. We have in-house tilers and plumbers that are experts in their field, but also have qualifications and experience from other areas of their life and we love that diversity. We have people that are qualified mechanics, steel workers, bricklayers, panel beaters, etc. Our tradies know how to work with both fibreglass and concrete. A multi-directional approach allows for flexibility and the ability to tackle any problem that might arise.” As well as celebrating the diversity of their staff and using such a wide range of skill sets to their advantage, Horizon Pools is dedicated to creating a working environment that is communicative, forward-thinking, and committed to quality. The company uses the highest quality product components and equipment to ensure all creations are world-class and built for longevity. Exploring new technologies is incredibly important to the team, from new pumps and filters to structural design elements and surface protection systems. A prime example of the company’s consistency in encouraging innovation is their adoption of variable speed pumps during their first release to the industry- almost a decade ago. Horizon Pools was one of the first builders in Australia to take on the new pump systems, Mr. Cutugno shares. “In discussion with a sales representative during their launch of the first variable speed pump to the Australian market, I realised this next generation of pumps would revolutionise the industry by reducing pool running costs from $1200 to $200 per annum. The decision to be one of the first pool builders to launch this variable speed pump as part of our customer’s pool package was an easy choice; I haven’t looked back and I believe our customers are thankful.” Horizon Pools adopts technology with sustainability and conservation efforts in mind.
