108 | Mayfair Pools & Spas POOL INDUSTRY MAYFAIR POOLS & SPAS NZ Mayfair sweeps the pool at 2026 SPASA Awards T T Kim Newth Mayfair Pools & Spas has again demonstrated its calibre as an industry frontrunner, after taking home the Gold award for New Zealand’s Best Fibreglass Pool Builder alongside 22 other awards at the 2026 SPASA Awards of Excellence. These awards honour the best of the best in the swimming pool and spa industry, showcasing outstanding achievements across Australia and New Zealand. Their awards’ haul includes three other major industry awards – Fibreglass Pool of the Year, Commercial Project of the Year and Specialty Project of the Year – along with 11 Golds and seven Highly Commended awards. The breadth of awards is remarkable, spanning outstanding innovative and sustainable projects as well as excellence in fibreglass construction across residential, commercial and renovation categories. It speaks to Mayfair’s across the board dedication to service excellence, quality and design innovation. This latest success builds on a very strong track record for Mayfair, which won 25 SPASA awards in 2025 and 19 in 2024. “It reinforces our position as New Zealand’s most awarded pool builder,” says Clint Atkins, Managing Director of Mayfair Pools & Spas. “It is incredibly rewarding for us to again receive recognition across such a broad range of categories. “Winning Fibreglass Pool of the Year and Best Fibreglass Pool Builder is a tremendous honour, but we’re equally proud to see our work recognised for innovation, sustainability and technical excellence.” Mayfair Pools is one of the industry’s pioneers, having started more than 50 years ago in Hawke’s Bay with two enterprising brothers, Keith and Colin Atkins. Honing a unique and patented method of in-ground swimming pool construction paved the way to a growing business and a network of licensed pool builders all over New Zealand. Clint, Keith’s son, is proud to be taking that legacy forward, leading an exceptional nationwide team delivering swimming pools and spas built to last a lifetime. Designed and built by Mayfair Pools Otago & Southland – Pisa Pools, their award winning Fibreglass Pool of the Year also won Gold in the Fibreglass Lap Pool category. It was designed as a complementary addition to a beautiful architectural home. Built partially into the hill alongside the home, the result is a stunning 17m x 3.3m custom lap pool with Garapa hardwood decking that maximises space and is perfectly aligned with lifestyle. “The outcome is fantastic – whether it’s laps in the early morning or relaxing in the pool in the evening looking over the lake and mountains,” says pool owner Nick Holdsworth. “It also really adds to our home, providing an area to sit with a book, a drink or to entertain friends and family.” Mayfair’s Commercial Project of the Year, delivered by Mayfair Pools Wellington & Kapiti, involved resurfacing and revitalising an existing pool for Fulton Swim School with a sleek new fibreglass finish that’s durable, hygienic and easy to maintain. Mayfair’s other major award – Specialty Project of the Year, which also won a Gold Innovative Project Award – was designed and built on an elevated site at Murrays Bay by Mayfair Pools Auckland West & North. It features a cantilevered weir, custom privacy wall and seamless integration with an upper deck to create a private retreat that’s both functional and visually impressive. This latest success builds on a very strong track record for Mayfair, which won 25 SPASA awards in 2025 and 19 in 2024.
