December 19/2024
As 2024 comes to a close, the team at Taunton Pools is celebrating a year filled with hard work, exciting milestones, and strong community connections. From transforming backyards with new pools to offering top-tier customer service, we’re proud to have served the Durham Region and neighbouring towns for over 40 years.
Here’s a look back at what we accomplished this year and a glimpse at what’s ahead for 2025.
This year was a standout for Taunton Pools. Here’s what we achieved:
- 30 In-Ground Pool Installations: From sleek vinyl pools to durable fiberglass options, we brought backyard dreams to life across the Durham Region and nearby communities.
- 8 Pool Renovations: Older pools were revitalized with updated shapes, upgraded liners, and vinyl over steel steps, making them as beautiful as they are functional.
- Our Largest Pool Yet: We hit an exciting milestone this year, installing the biggest pool in our history—stay tuned for details!
- 500+ Pool Openings and Closings: From preparing pools for the season to winterizing them for the off-season, our team had its busiest year ever in service.

Thank You for an Amazing Year
As a family-run business , we’re proud to give back to the community that has supported us for over four decades. This year, we sponsored several local teams and events, continuing our commitment to making the Durham Region a great place to live and play.
In 2024, pool owners embraced both timeless designs and cutting-edge technology:
- Rectangle pools with vinyl over steel steps remained a customer favorite for their classic style and versatility.
- Tanning ledges with integrated jets offered a touch of luxury and relaxation.
- Waterfalls and colour-changing lights added ambiance and elegance to backyard spaces.
- Pool Safety Covers: Many customers upgraded to safety covers for enhanced convenience and peace of mind during the off-season.
Pool automation systems and smart technology were also on the rise. These innovations simplify pool ownership by automating tasks like cleaning and temperature control, while increasing efficiency and saving energy. Homeowners love the convenience of managing their pool systems with just a few taps on their smartphones.
In 2025, our owner Ryan will embark on his own backyard pool renovation—a project we’re excited to document and share. From design decisions to installation tips, we’ll bring you behind the scenes to inspire your own backyard transformations.
We’re also expanding our popular Know Your Pool series to provide even more educational content. From maintenance tips to equipment upgrades, our goal is to empower pool owners with the knowledge they need to enjoy their pools to the fullest.
This year, the post-COVID market and inflation presented challenges for the pool industry. However, our ability to adapt kept our team busy and ensured continued exceptional service. By working closely with suppliers and focusing on efficiency, we’ve already booked exciting projects for 2025.
Taunton Pools operates year-round, and we’re excited for what’s to come:
- Hot Tub Options: We’re clearing out older models and bringing in the latest designs. If you’re considering a hot tub, now is a great time to upgrade.
- Liner Replacements: Spring is the perfect time to refresh your pool. Book early to secure your opening date and ensure a smooth installation.
- Winter Trade Shows: Our team will attend events to explore the newest technologies, like robotic cleaners, so we can offer you the best options next season.
- Referral Program: Know someone thinking about adding a pool? Refer them to us and take advantage of our referral program!
As we reflect on 2024, we want to thank our loyal customers for making it such a rewarding year. Whether you’re planning a new pool, upgrading your existing setup, or exploring hot tub options, Taunton Pools is here to help every step of the way.
Thank you for 40+ years of trust and support. Here’s to making 2025 another incredible year for pools, hot tubs, and backyard dreams!
