Tanby’s big splash Tanby Swimming Pools, the multi-award winning familyowned business, are celebrating a huge win at this year’s prestigious Swimming Pool and Allied Trades Association awards ceremony. Following their success over the last eight years running, the Surrey-based company won the coveted title of UK Pool Contractor of the Year. Martin Borley, Managing Director and Vice-President of the British Swimming Pool Federation (ISPE), says: “It is a great honour for the entire Tanby Team and is recognition for the passion, hard work and dedication to each project. We aim to exceed our client’s expectations and turn their dreams into reality.” Specialising in building luxury, outdoor and indoor, residential and commercial, sprayed concrete pools, this places Tanby as the number one pool company in the UK. Established over 46 years ago and founder members of SPATA, Tanby have built up an enviable reputation for high-quality workmanship and innovative pool design. Pool refurbishment is a major part of the business. Many clients are improving rather than moving and renovating tired, dated-looking pools and Martin added: “The SPATA Gold Award for Refurbishment shows what can be done with a pool that we built in the 1970’s that was still structurally sound and water tight but dated and not suitable for the new owner and his young family. However, something as

simple as a new liner, coping stones or a new tile band can transform and old pool.” As one satisfied customer wrote: “From start to finish the service was extremely professional. Firstly we had a free, no obligation consultation at a time convenient to us. The design ideas were great and we knew early on that the quality of the finished product was paramount to Tanby. “The job was completed within budget and on time with minimal disruption and the finished product exceeded our expectations. We have an amazing pool with features we had never thought of. “Even when we changed our mind about certain features halfway through the installation, everything was sorted out, within the original budget. Tanby also really helped us in matters not involving themselves. For example they
helped us replace our old oil tank with no benefit to themselves. We have had no problems with the installation but we feel very confident that if we did, Tanby would take care of everything with no fuss.” Covering the South East, it is important to Tanby to treat your property as if it was their own and to minimise the impact of the construction project; the build is only the first stage in an ongoing relationship. The Institute of Swimming Pool Engineers-trained maintenance team, including a Gas Safe engineer, are available for anything from one-off call-outs and repairs to regular weekly service contracts where all you do is swim – Tanby do the rest. With 2012 being the year of sport and fitness and the sun around the corner, why not contact Tanby for a free site consultation and look forward to a long hot summer spent around the pool with friends and family?
