The pool shell, a monoblock pool: benefits and prices in Belgium

There comes a moment when you are done waiting. No half a summer without a terrace, no months of construction traffic at your door. You simply want to swim. A monoblock pool is made for exactly that: from bare garden to a dive into the water, in a fraction of the time of a traditional build.

What is a monoblock pool (pool shell)

A monoblock pool is made in one piece, under controlled conditions in the factory, and then arrives in your garden as a whole. No seams, no surprises on site: the quality is exactly the same everywhere in the pool. We build a monoblock shell as a tailor-made pool too, matched to the dimensions and atmosphere of your garden.

Benefits

Strong, low maintenance and well able to withstand weather, wind and a capricious Belgian winter. Because the manufacturing is already done before the pool reaches your garden, the installation itself is surprisingly fast: in most cases from excavation to swim-ready water within one week, with far less disruption for you and the neighbours than a classic concrete building site.

Price structure

Indicative prices for a monoblock pool at Plons start from € 30,000. What you ultimately pay depends on dimensions, finish, technology and the accessibility of your garden. That combination of speed, quality and an honest indicative price delivers strong value for money. We always put this openly on the table during a no-obligation advice meeting, so you know exactly where you stand beforehand.

Pool shell versus concrete pool

Large shallow lounge area and a big built-in bench

Because we build everything tailor-made, we can offer a larger shallow lounge area than standard. That wide, shallow ledge is ideal for little ones to play on safely, while the big built-in bench is the perfect spot for parents to relax in the water.

A concrete pool gives you more freedom in shape, but requires a longer build time and more site disruption. A monoblock shell is installed faster and needs less maintenance, with slightly less leeway in the exact design. Curious how that looks in practice? We compare them in detail on our monoblock versus concrete page, for clients in West and East Flanders.
