Pool Formwork and Steel Fixing Sydney
A swimming pool is more than just a luxury—it’s a space for relaxation, exercise, and entertainment that can significantly enhance your property’s value. At Vasform, we understand the complexities of building a pool, and that’s why our expertise in pool formwork and steel fixing is unmatched. With over 30 years of industry experience, we deliver
precision and quality, ensuring your pool is built to last.
The Foundation of a Strong Pool
Pool formwork is the temporary structure that supports the concrete while it cures, ensuring a sturdy foundation for your pool. Combined with steel fixing, where reinforced steel bars are carefully placed within the formwork before pouring concrete, this process ensures your pool is durable, resistant to cracks, and capable of withstanding the test of time.
Our team specialises in crafting strong, long-lasting pool structures through meticulous formwork and steel placement, providing the reliability and peace of mind you need for such a significant investment.

Structural pool renovations go beyond resurfacing or cosmetic updates—they allow you to completely transform your existing pool to better suit your lifestyle and needs.

If you’re ready to reimagine your pool, we’re here to bring your vision to life.

Pool Glass Rebate Specialist
Glass rebates are a specialist feature used to install internal glass viewing panels within the pool structure—typically seen in above-ground or suspended pools. These panels replace a section of the pool wall below the waterline, creating a striking visual feature that allows people to view into the pool from outside or below.
At VAS, we have the experience and expertise to form precise, structurally sound rebates designed to house these underwater glass walls securely. Accuracy is essential to ensure water-tightness, structural integrity, and a clean finish that showcases the unique architectural design. Whether you’re integrating a full-length glass wall or a smaller viewing window, our team delivers high-quality results that meet both visual and engineering standards.

Suspended Pools
Suspended pool construction, a complex and highly technical area that requires expert knowledge in formwork and steel fixing. Suspended pools are typically built above ground level—on rooftops, over basements, or on elevated
structures—requiring precise engineering and detailed execution. Our team has the experience and capability to deliver high-quality suspended pool projects that meet structural requirements while maintaining a flawless finish.

Shoring Formwork
We understand the critical importance of proper shoring formwork—especially when working in sandy conditions or tight residential sites. One recent project involved coordinating closely with excavator operators and formworkers to stabilise an excavation where nearby houses and fences were at risk. With no margin for error, we ensured the shoring formwork was in place immediately after excavation to prevent any collapse or ground movement. It’s this level of planning and teamwork that keeps sites safe and projects running smoothly. We never leave a pool excavation unsupported—doing it right the first time protects everyone and everything on site.
