A family business with thirty-five years experience. Its Co-founders Harry Sweeney and Allan McNabb started the company in 1970. Harry's background was water treatment, filtration & municipal pool management. Allan's was a building background.
They imported American ideas of shotcrete technology and developed formulations & techniques that are the basis of the system Pioneer Pool & Building still use today. Development and refining continues and forms a basic philosophy of the company. It enjoys
frequent visits to the USA and Australia to such events as the NSPI world fair & Aberdeen's world of concrete and as a subsequence are members of the NSPI and American Shotcrete Association.
The company philosophy has always been the incorporation of the best available systems, materials and equipment. This covers the pool design, construction and maintenance of these products. This is achievable by the companies' construction experience, proven construction and
equipment systems and its maintenance section, which includes a retail shop.

Chris's background is building. After qualifying as a carpenter, completed NZCB & 9 units NZQS he was employed as a clerk of works for 4 years. Chris has been with the company for 15 years.
