Why Choose a Mayfair Pool from Plateau Pools

At Plateau Pools & Spas we don’t aim to be the cheapest - we aim to be the best. We specialise in creating exceptional, custom pools using the industry-leading Mayfair Pools construction system, trusted for over 50 years across New Zealand.

Awarded New Zealand’s Best Fibreglass Pool Builder in 2025 and 2026, Mayfair Pools is New Zealand’s most trusted and most awarded fibreglass pool builder with a 50 year legacy built around strength, efficiency and long-term performance.

Here’s why our clients choose a custom-built Mayfair pool:

Our proprietary Mayfair Pools construction system combines a reinforced concrete substructure, timber framing, insulation and premium fibreglass to create a pool built for strength, durability and long-term performance.

Using premium fibreglass and vinyl ester resins, each pool is designed specifically for heated water and New Zealand conditions, while the non-porous barrier coat and flow coat provide a smooth, durable and easy-to-maintain finish.

Superior Construction

01

Thermal performance is built into every Mayfair Pool. Our proprietary insulated wall lining system helps retain heat, reducing the amount of energy required to maintain your ideal swimming temperature.

When combined with a pool cover, an insulated Mayfair Pool can deliver energy savings of up to 26% over a swim season compared with a non-insulated pool. Better heat retention means lower running costs, a longer swimming season and more time enjoying your pool.

Up to 26% Lower Energy Usage

02

Your pool shouldn't be limited by the shape or size of an imported shell. Mayfair Pools are built onsite in New Zealand, giving us the flexibility to create genuinely bespoke designs that work with your property, architecture and lifestyle.

From unique shapes and architectural features to infinity edges, integrated seating, steps and automatic covers, we can tailor every detail to your vision. With Mayfair's exclusive range of flow coat colours and finishes, your pool can be designed to complement your home and landscape perfectly.

Custom Built Onsite, Just for You

03

A great pool relies on more than the pool itself. We work with leading New Zealand suppliers for plumbing, filtration, sanitation, heating, pool covers, paving and fencing, selecting products that deliver reliable performance and long-term value.

Our experienced team brings these components together as part of a complete pool solution, with quality products, proven technology and local expertise supporting your project from construction through to ongoing care.

The Best Products & Partners

04

Building your pool onsite allows us to use locally sourced materials while reducing the transport associated with importing a finished pool shell. It also means your pool is constructed specifically for its site and designed with longevity in mind.

Durable materials, effective insulation and energy-efficient heating help reduce ongoing resource use, maintenance and running costs - creating a pool that delivers better value throughout its lifetime.

Sustainable, Local & Lasting

05

When you choose a Mayfair Pool, you're choosing more than a pool - you're choosing over 50 years of specialist pool-building experience. Mayfair's proven construction system has been developed and refined specifically for New Zealand conditions and has earned the reputation of being one of the country's leading fibreglass pool builders, including being named New Zealand's Best Fibreglass Pool Builder in 2025 and 2026.

Combined with Plateau Pools' local knowledge and hands-on expertise, you have the confidence of a nationwide Mayfair network backed by decades of experience, delivered by a local team who understands your site and your project.

Testimonials

What our clients have to say about us

A beige curved line on a black background.
  • Aerial view of a modern backyard pool area with a rectangular swimming pool, wooden deck, round table with four chairs, and surrounding landscaping with rocks and plants.

    "Regan was a blessing right from the start. He immediately ‘got’ the vision that we had in our minds and had the experience to turn that vision into reality. He listened to our ideas but was also willing to make suggestions where he thought it warranted. The result is superb – even better than we dared hope. We have got the pool we wanted but a whole lot more, thanks to Regan’s expertise in both building and landscaping. We love it, and it is something we can be proud of and enjoy for many years to come. We would have no hesitation in recommending Mayfair pools to anyone.”

    B & H, Taupo

  • View of a backyard swimming pool with a yellow and white striped float, patio furniture, and lush greenery outside a screened porch

    "Massive thanks to Anna, Reg and the team for working with us on this project. We knew we wanted something unique and of a really high standard – not just a rectangle pool and a fence! We are so pleased we chose to work with Mayfair Pools - nothing was a problem and you catered for all of our needs especially when it came to the detail. Reg took a lot of time to listen to what we wanted and explain the technical side of what was possible. Any issues were quickly resolved. From a lifestyle point of view we feel so lucky as its like having a resort at home, we can spend wonderful family time out there and don’t need to go out as much which is great with two older boys and a wee baby. We recently had a big family group visit and it makes so much difference to have the pool and spa pool area for us all to enjoy. Aesthetically it has put our design stamp on the house. Thanks so much for your patience and attention to detail that has helped us achieve our dream sanctuary for our family.”

    S & M Campbell, Taupo

  • A small backyard swimming pool with a wooden deck, surrounded by greenery and plants, and blue lounge chairs.

    "The entire process was smooth and hassle-free. I recently had the pleasure of working with Mayfair Pools Taupo to build a swimming pool in my backyard, and I am thrilled with the results. The entire process was smooth and hassle-free, thanks to the professionalism and expertise of the team. From the initial consultation to the final installation, the team was always on time, communicative, and respectful of my property. They took the time to listen to my needs and preferences and provided valuable suggestions to ensure that the final product exceeded my expectations. We got to choose the size a 3 x 3 metre, big enough to cool off and gently exercise and small enough to heat and have a chat and cocktail or wine. We were also able to get a colour made to suit us as we wanted a particular style. The team was skilled and efficient, and they completed the project within the agreed-upon timeline and budget. They paid close attention to every detail, ensuring that the pool was not only beautiful but also functional and safe. Overall, I am extremely satisfied with my experience. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a professional, reliable, and high-quality construction team.”

    A Mastrovich, Taupo

  • Backyard with a small rectangular swimming pool, surrounded by tiled patio and green grass, with outdoor seating areas and a house in the background.

    “Anna and Regan are great to deal with – warm, friendly and personable people. They went the extra mile for me to get things done and made the whole process easy and stress-free. I couldn’t be happier with the result. We are looking forward to many more extended summers by the pool!”

    K Robinson, Kinloch

  • "We would highly recommend Regan and Anna. When we were looking to do our pool we shopped around at options and met Regan from Plateau Pools who designs the pool around your personal needs. They were so easy to work with, answered all our calls and happy for us to pop onsite anytime to see the progress of our pool. Over the building process nothing was an issue to tweak. We would highly recommend Regan and Anna, fantastic guys to deal with.”

    Trudi & Andrew McHale, Taupo

  • A backyard deck with a small pool, two lounge chairs, a basket, and a large leafy tree, with neighboring rooftops and a cloudy sky in the background.

    "We would recommend this team to any potential pool owners. We entered into a contract with Plateau Pools / Mayfair Pools & Spas in 2022 for a thermally heated 3m x 3m pool. The build turned out to be quite complicated, but Regan, Anna, and the team did an outstanding job navigating through the process. At all times they were very easy to deal with and very professional. I was kept informed throughout the consent process, and the construction period. We are very pleased with the finished product and would recommend this team to any potential pool owners.”

    K & F Hughes, Taupo

  • A backyard scene featuring a swimming pool with a reflection of the sky, a landscaped garden with various plants and trees, including a large tree on the right, and a view of water and hills in the distance under a clear blue sky.

    “We had an excellent experience with Plateau Pools.Their attention to detail was superb and their focus was on delivering us with our perfect pool, within our budget. I always felt like home was work and that I needed to escape to our bach to feel like I could get away. With our new pool and wellness space I truly feel like I have my own sanctuary at home where I can escape the stresses of life and be in the moment. The excellent insulation and freshwater system are a bonus, which makes the entire solution so much more user-friendly. We are loving our pool and have enjoyed it all summer and we are still swimming during the shoulder season.”

    K Jolly, Rotorua

  • Modern backyard with a swimming pool, stone pillars, landscaped plants, a privacy fence, and a contemporary house under a partly cloudy sky.

    "We were adamant that we didn't want a pre-fabricated pool. We wanted a built-in pool that would be constructed to last - and that's exactly what inspired us to choose a Mayfair Pool. We love our pool, and so do our neighbours! They often join us for a swim. The kids even wait for me to get home from work so they can dive in. Our teenage son hosts pool parties almost every other week. It's become the perfect excuse to get outside, fire up the BBQ, and enjoy a cold beer or two with family and friends. We've been impressed with the pool servicing experience too. It's so easy! We just leave the gate open, and the team takes care of the rest. They send us the bill afterward, and that's it. It's hassle-free, and we appreciate that."

    L Lasike, Rotorua

  • Modern house with a backyard swimming pool, outdoor seating, and a glass fence, with lush green landscape and hills in the background.

    The entire process was professional, seamless, and stress-free. Our dream of a backyard oasis became a reality thanks to Plateau Pools in Taupō. From the initial planning stages to the final touches, their team exceeded our expectations in every way. We selected Plateau Pools based on our builder's strong recommendation, and we are so glad we did. Anna and Reg's passion for creating beautiful outdoor spaces is evident in their work. They didn't just build a pool; they transformed our entire backyard. Their expertise in both pool construction and landscaping resulted in a seamless integration of the pool with our property. It truly looks like it was always meant to be there. The landscaping they provided, perfectly complimented the pool and surrounding area. The entire process was professional, seamless, and stress-free. We especially appreciated their transparent and robust budgeting, which eliminated any concerns about unexpected costs. Their communication was excellent, and they kept us informed every step of the way. We were also impressed by the team's work ethic and attention to detail. Jacob and Tyson are skilled professionals who clearly take pride in their work. Their friendly and approachable demeanour made the entire experience enjoyable. The after-sales service has been exceptional. Reg and Anna are committed to ensuring our complete satisfaction. If you're looking for a pool builder in the Taupo region, we highly recommend Plateau Pools. They have created a beautiful and functional outdoor space that we will enjoy for years to come.
