The pools going in across Mostakbal City
Mostakbal City is a new city on the Cairo Suez Road, bordering Madinaty, El Shorouk and the New Administrative Capital. According to MIDAR, the master developer, more than 30 developers are building 52 projects across its 5,200 feddans. Bloomfields, Sarai, HAPTown and the phases around them hand over apartments, villas, twin houses, townhouses and penthouses, and a lot of the villas arrive as shells with the garden untouched. So the pool work here is mostly new builds, in a villa garden, on a roof terrace or in a compound clubhouse. Every phase of the city falls inside the area our Nasr City office covers. If you want a number before we come out, you can price your pool online from our own rate book.
Villa, twin house and townhouse gardens at handover
A villa shell with a bare garden is the easiest plot a pool will ever get. Machines reach the back of the plot, spoil gets loaded where it is dug, and the plant room can sit where the pipe runs are shortest. The levels are still open, so the coping, the terrace and the lawn get set to one line. Twin house and townhouse gardens are narrower, so the pool, the plant room and the pump noise are sized to the space and to the neighbours on either side.
Gardens that are already planted
If you moved in early and the paving, irrigation and planting are already down, the first visit maps the route for machines, what gets lifted and what gets protected. That method is written into the quote before you sign. Lifting, relaying and making good each sit in the quotation as their own line, so you can see exactly what a finished garden adds to the job.
Penthouse and roof terrace pools
The apartment phases include penthouses, and some people want a plunge pool or a spa on the roof terrace. Water on a roof sits above the flats below. The slab, the waterproofing and the roof drainage get checked together before anything is quoted, and on a new building the check includes what the developer allows on that roof, in writing.
Shared compound and clubhouse pools
Compounds across the city are building clubhouses with shared pools, and some add lagoons. If you manage one for a developer or a compound management, every closed day brings complaints from people who have only just moved in, and somebody answers for anything that happens in the water. We trace each fault to its cause and fix it once. Readings get logged on every visit and kept for inspections. Shutdowns go into your quietest weeks, and developers and managements can contract us directly, on commercial terms.
Pool, deck and planting on one drawing
The order of work decides how much of a garden gets dug up twice. We fix the pool position from inside the house first, looking out from the reception and the main terrace. The coping, the deck and the lawn then get their levels on the same drawing, with the plant room, the backwash discharge and the cable route marked on it. Pipework to the plant room goes into its trench before any paving is laid. Anything you might add in a few years, a jacuzzi, a water feature or garden lighting, gets its pipes and power laid in that same trench.
Working beside the landscaper and the finishing contractor
A villa in its first months often has a finishing contractor inside and a landscaper waiting outside. We agree the pool drawing and the finished levels with your landscaper before paving or planting starts, and our site programme shows which trade has the plot in which week. Compounds set their own rules for contractors during handover, such as gate passes, delivery times and working hours. We file that paperwork with the compound management in our name and keep the site team inside the permitted hours.
Call or WhatsApp +20 102 626 1818 and we will book the visit to your plot.

- A 90-day programme for a standard residential build, written into the quotation.
- Milestone payments, or a deposit and six monthly instalments against post-dated cheques.

Pools another contractor built
If your villa came with a pool, or someone else built one before you bought, we take it on in whatever state it is in. The first visit covers the water, the shell, the tiling, the pipework and the plant room, and each gets a written verdict of sound, needs work now, or can wait. A young pool can still have a snag, so we tell you when a fault belongs under its builder's warranty before we quote to fix it. Repairs to another company's pool carry a warranty term agreed for that job and written on the quote.
How a Mostakbal City pool gets priced
A skimmer pool in a townhouse garden, an overflow pool across a wide villa plot and a plunge pool on a penthouse roof are three different jobs. The dig, the access, the levels, the finish and the equipment all move the figure, and a bare garden costs less to work in than a planted one. That is why the price follows a site visit. The visit is free, and the quote is free, written and dated, with each part of the work on its own line.
People who should call a different company
If you need a figure over the phone before anyone has seen the plot, we are the wrong company. If your landscaper has already set the levels and you want the pool fitted around them without a survey, we will turn the job down. And if the lowest quote is all that matters, you will find someone cheaper.

Frequently asked questions in Mostakbal City
Do you cover Bloomfields, Sarai and HAPTown? Yes. Bloomfields, Sarai, HAPTown, Il Bosco City, the streets around Mercato and the rest of Mostakbal City are all inside the area we cover.
I have just taken handover. Should the pool go in before the landscaping? Yes, if you can. Machines still reach the plot, the levels are still open and the pipework goes in before the paving. Book the visit before your landscaper sets any levels.
Can you work alongside my landscaper and my finishing contractor? Yes. The pool drawing and the finished levels get agreed with your landscaper first, and the programme shows when each trade is on the plot.
My garden is already finished. Can I still add a pool? Yes. Access, lifting and making good are surveyed on the first visit and priced as separate lines, so you see what the finished garden adds.
Can my villa plot take an overflow edge? Plenty of villa plots can, and the survey settles it: where the balance tank goes, what the deck carries and where the plant room sits. Our infinity and overflow pool construction page explains how the edge and the tank work together.
Can you put a pool on my penthouse roof terrace? Yes, once the slab, the waterproofing and the drainage have been checked and the developer has approved it in writing. See pools built on roofs and indoors for how we assess the slab.
We run a compound pool here. Can we contract you on commercial terms? Yes. You get one named contact, readings logged for your inspections, faults traced to their cause, and any shutdown booked into your quietest weeks.
How long will my villa pool take to build? A 90-day programme for a standard residential build, written into the quotation. Rooftop and larger custom pools get their own programme in writing before you sign.
How much will it cost? That depends on the plot, the access and the finish, so the price follows a free site visit. You get the quote free, in writing, with a date on it.
Do you give a warranty? On pools we build, yes, in writing: 25 years on the structure, 10 on the waterproofing, 5 on the electromechanical works. On a repair to another company's pool, the term is agreed for that job and written on the quote.
