How the schedule holds from across the city
Our office is in Nasr City, so for Sheikh Zayed we plan fewer, longer site days instead of short daily visits. A crew booked for your pool stays the full day, with the materials for that stage already on site.
Compound management sets the working hours, the delivery windows and the access route. We ask for those rules before the programme is written. Deliveries are front-loaded to fit the windows, and each stage is sequenced around them, so the materials are there on the day the stage starts.
Maintenance in Sheikh Zayed, as in neighbouring 6th of October City, runs on a fixed day for each pool, and the same team keeps it.
Where the pools are in Sheikh Zayed
Sheikh Zayed sits between the Cairo-Alexandria Desert Road on its northern side and the 26th of July Corridor on its southern side, with 6th of October next to it. The city has numbered districts of apartments and villas, compounds of standalone villas, twin houses and townhouses, and the larger plots of the Green Revolution near the Desert Road. Its pools sit in villa gardens, in shared compound pools and in club grounds, and each of those gets planned in its own way.
Villa pools from Beverly Hills to the newer SODIC developments
Beverly Hills, off the Desert Road near the 16th District, was SODIC's first project in Egypt, and its standalone villas often come with a private pool of their own. In a compound garden, the gate, the side passage and the route for any machine get measured on the first site day, and the compound's access rules go into the programme. When an older villa pool has its shell, waterproofing, tiling and plant room all wearing out together, we scope one renovation from the shell to the plant room, drained once, with one company answering for every part.
Large villa plots in the Green Revolution, near the Desert Road
The Green Revolution is a farming area being developed into large villas and palaces, close to the Cairo-Alexandria Desert Road. A big plot leaves room for an overflow or infinity edge, and for the balance tank and pipework that edge needs. Our own hydraulic engineers size the tank, the pumps and the weir, and the water level along the edge is checked before a single tile goes on. You can see what goes into one on our overflow and infinity pool builds page. Custom pools like these get their own programme, written down before you sign.
Shared pools in Sheikh Zayed compounds and clubs
A shared compound pool carries a far heavier bather load than a private pool. Filtration, circulation and dosing get sized to the number of residents actually using the water, and the water gets tested more often. Compound management deals with one named contact, keeps a fixed day on our west side round, and gets the readings in writing after every visit. We run a shared pool on scheduled pool maintenance, with the same team on every visit. Club pools get readings logged for inspections, and any work that would close the pool goes into your quiet weeks. Compounds and clubs can contract us directly, on commercial terms.
Saunas and steam rooms beside the pool
If you want a sauna or a steam room next to the pool, in a pool house or a basement, the same engineers who look after the pool design it. A hot, wet room inside a house needs its waterproofing, drainage, ventilation and electrics planned as one, so the moisture stays inside the room and out of the walls. Our sauna and steam room installation covers that whole job, from the shell to the controls.

Pools another company built
We maintain and renovate pools built by other contractors, and we take them on in whatever state they are in. The first site day covers the water, the shell, the tiling, the pipework and the plant room. Every part then gets a written verdict from us: sound, needs work now, or can wait. On a repair to another company's pool, the warranty term is agreed per job on the quote.
How a Sheikh Zayed pool gets priced
The access to the plot, the compound's working rules, the state of the shell and plant room, the edge you want and the finish you pick all move the figure. All of that shows only at the pool, so we quote after a site visit. The visit is free, the consultation is free, and the quote comes in writing with dates on it. If you want a starting figure first, the online configurator gives you one from our own rate book.
People we are the wrong company for
If you want somebody at the pool every morning for a quick skim, a company based closer to Sheikh Zayed will suit you better. If the lowest monthly figure is what decides it, another company will win on price. And if you want new tiles laid over a crack before anybody has checked the shell, we will turn that job down, because we only warranty work we have opened up and checked.
