Chelmsford, CM1 and CM2
Swimming Pools in Chelmsford: Local Knowledge
Chelmsford is the county town of Essex and was granted city status in 2012. It’s also known as the birthplace of radio, thanks to Marconi’s pioneering factory. Planning and building control are handled by Chelmsford City Council, and Essex Highways manages the roads and footways. We regularly travel up the A12 to work in and around the city.
Our office in Hutton is around 9 miles from Chelmsford as the crow flies, so we are close at hand for site visits and while your project is on site. We also work regularly in nearby Writtle, Margaretting and Highwood.
Planning & approvals in Chelmsford
Chelmsford is in the CM1 and CM2 postcode area, and planning applications and building control for projects here are handled by Chelmsford City Council. We work alongside you, your architect and the council from the start, so the right approvals are in place before work begins. Essex Highways looks after the roads and footways, which matters for anything that affects the public highway, such as skips, deliveries, drainage connections or a dropped kerb.
Why use a local builder?
Being based in Hutton means we know the ground conditions, councils and suppliers around Chelmsford. You deal directly with Mark or Tom Boswell, who can visit your property, talk through your plans and give you an honest quotation.
Indoor pools
Luxury Indoor Pools in Chelmsford
An indoor pool lets you swim all year round and can be a stunning feature of your home. We build indoor pools as part of new builds and extensions, or within dedicated pool buildings, taking care of the structure, the pool itself and the building around it.
Indoor pools need careful planning around ventilation, insulation and moisture control, so we work closely with your architect and pool specialists to get the details right from the start.
Indoor pool rooms
Pools built into new homes and extensions, or as a stand-alone pool building with changing and plant rooms.
Outdoor pools
Outdoor swimming pools with stone patios, surrounds and landscaping to create a luxury garden space.

Do I need planning permission for a pool in Chelmsford?

Who supplies the pool equipment?
