My name is Ray Amedee and for 40 years, 1972 – 2012, I was a manager of Jender Concrete Plumbing and Earth Moving Services. In these years we sprayed thousands of concrete pools all over Queensland & as far south as Grafton.
Some 48 years ago I built our own concrete pool here in Wynnum Manly. So, by now my wife & I decided it was definitely in need of a refurbishment. We engaged the services of Malastone Pool Renovations – Peter & Josh Hellen. The quotation sent to us was very professional and well presented so we knew exactly what was ahead for us.
The pool was finished in fast time which was no easy task as the weather around November was very unsettled, hot & wet. We witnessed workmanship of a very high standard from start to finish & we are pleased to say the day of the tradesman (for pools any how) is not over yet. And we are very very pleased with the finished product. We would have no hesitation in recommending Malastone Pool Renovations.

I would highly recommend Pete & Josh. Their expertise and knowledge of what was needed to
be done saved me a lot of money. I found them to be genuine good blokes. I would highly
recommend them.
Mark Elliot Scarborough August 2024
We cannot speak highly enough of the professional and expert service which we have received
from Peter and Josh. They have supported our goal to renovate our old fibreglass pool and
broken down pool surrounds for many many months while we worked out the best options and
timing. Their experience and expertise was obvious from day 1 and the result is far beyond our
expectations. Looks amazing! Brilliant communication, friendly and professional service.
Thank you so much Peter and Josh.
Sue & Terry Carindale May 2024
Simply put Peter and Josh and the team were easy to deal with, and clearly very experienced which resulted in exactly what we’d hoped to achieve with our pool renovation. Peter was able to articulate very well exactly what the approach would involve, leaving the guess work out for us. The pool looks amazing and we’re so happy with the outcome. Thank you Peter and Josh
Kirk & Melissa Tingalpa Nov 2023
We are so grateful to Pete, Josh and the team for the recent pool renovation. Our pool looks amazing! The team was there with advice, honesty and expertise throughout the whole process. We couldn't have asked for a better experience or finished product.
Belinda & Rob Mansfield Nov 2023
I have a concrete shell pool with mosaic tile waterline and brick coping circa 1990. The skimmer required replacement and there was a pipe leak. I got a few quotes of similar price and selected Malastone for the skimmer job. They replaced the skimmer and visually you would not know it was done. The work was so neat. After getting false advice from other Leak companies I asked Malastone to find and repair my leak. They methodically checked my system, found and repaired the leak. Josh and Peter are diligent, prompt and perfectionists in their work. Get these guys to do your job. Simply great. 5 stars.
Chemain Adams Coorparoo March 2024
We highly recommend Malastone to anyone considering a pool renovation. Pete and Josh and their team achieved a fantastic result for us that we couldn’t be happier with, in addition to providing great design advice.
Perhaps more importantly, they are honest and friendly people and it was a pleasure to have them working at our home.
Andy & Bec Mt Gravatt Dec 2023
Our pool renovation was a major challenge, having been a fresh water pond for 11 years! Peter and Josh gave us an action plan, timeline and updates all the way through. Their aftercare program to support the new renovation was comprehensive and they were always on hand for any questions. The finished pool is incredible! A beautiful, sparkling asset to our home and even better than the original pool we bought with the house 20 years ago. Thank you so much Peter, Josh and Team. We highly recommend your company!
Virginia & Peter Carindale Sep 2023
Even with diffficult access to our Pebble Crete pool, Peter planned the procedures necessary to ensure a smooth operation and a good outcome. Our pool now looks like a new one.
Peter explained the processes involved for the renovation, and provided reliable advice regarding ongoing maintenance of our new pool. He instilled faith and confidence in us because of his open and honest answers to our many questions.
Heather and I are very pleased with the renovation and all aspects, regarding Peter and Josh and the team's efforts.
We recommend them, as professionals and leaders in their field.
Clive & Heather Tarragindi May 2023
Thank you Peter and Josh for your outstanding customer service and a fantastic job on our pool. I highly recommend Peter and Josh to anyone wanting a professional pool renovation.
Susana & Yoshi Bulimba March 2023
Thank you Peter and Josh for your time, excellent communication, great advice and work you did on our pool renovation. Having undergone a big renovation in the backyard, your care even for our new concrete, pool fence,coping etc and your ongoing advice was so appreciated. Not a scrap of rubbish, everything stored neat and tidy and a great clean job. Thank you so much. No wonder you were recommended to us.
Nikki & Max Springwood March 2023
Just had coping and water line tile refurbishment on our pool and Peter and his team did an excellent job under very trying circumstances due to weather conditions and poor construction of our pool that was built 17 years ago. The end result was amazing. Can highly recommend this company!
Steve & Tina Wakerley Feb 2023
After many years, having our vinyl pool relined for the 2nd time by Malastone ought to be sufficient confirmation that we were and are entirely happy with Peter and Josh's service and expertise. They are a hard working team who stick to their quotation and time line and are very tidy and friendly on top of that.
Harty Carseldine Oct 2022
I think I'm very lucky when my pool needs a renovation I found this company on google. Peter and Josh gave me professional advice and detailed planning from the very beginning. After their hard work now my pool is very beautiful and I can't wait to enjoy it with my family.
If someone is as lucky as me to find this page when your pool needs repair, I highly recommend Peter and Josh.
Lawrence Wishart Oct 2022
Thanks Peter and Josh for a fantastic job on our pool.
It was requiring a new liner and once liner was removed it was a disaster underneath. Rusted and rotten.
After a few days hard grafting by the boys we now have a pool as good as new.
Highly recommend these guys if you need a pool repaired.
Brian & Elaine Wynnum Oct 2022
Thank you Peter and Josh for the wonderful pool transformation. Your vision helped turn our pool from old to new. We needed a new pool liner but got so much more - a much needed makeover. Very happy with the end result. Thank you for the great work, professional advice and always communicating with us during the rebuild. Thoroughly recommend you to anyone wanting a professional pool renovation.
Madonna & Neville Wishart July 2022
I am extremely happy with the level of service provided by Peter and Josh. Ours was an unusual liner repair which could easily have led to a complete replacement. I'm very happy with the results and the very reasonable price. I can't recommend Peter and Josh highly enough.
Daren White Wishart July 2022
We are extremely happy with the work Peter and Josh did on our old pool. The work they did and the new liner have transformed the pool and we are very happy with the result. Peter discussed all the options with us and Peter and Josh worked so hard to get it just right for us. A huge thank you to them both.
Sarah Dowdney Newport July 2022
Extremely happy with the work that Peter and Josh did in relining and tiling our pool. We had a very old and outdated pool which has now been transformed into something a lot more modern and appealing. Peter is a great communicator and always kept me informed through the whole process. They were very tidy and diligent and took a lot of the stress out of things.
Duncan Anson Camp Hill June 2022
Pete and Josh are just great. Cannot recommend them highly enough. Yes, it took a long time but the quality and the end result was totally worth the wait. Would I use them again in my next house? 100% I would. Thanks guys, we love it.
David Frisina Eight Mile Plains June 2022
After digging out our 35 year old pool that was filled in with sand 15 years ago we were in need of someone who knew what they were talking about. We had massive reservations about how successful our pool renovation was going to be (and how costly!!) but after talking to Peter he made us confident that it was absolutely do-able, cheaper than a new pool and that is was fine that the pool was located 600 km away!! Peter’s experience and understanding of the industry was obvious and he went about the renovation with calm efficiency that only comes when people really know what they are doing. Being remote meant there was problem solving that needed to be done along the way but no challenge was too large. The boys were polite and professional and we highly recommend to anyone who is regional or remote to use these blokes. Their after sales service was fabulous too. A pleasure to have them fix up our pool.
From this to this . . . . .
The Pilcher Family, Thallon Feb 2022
Peter and Josh are the best of the best. We had a very old pool which basically needed to be brought back to the shell and build back up. Unfortunately a lot of unexpected setbacks came up (asbestos in pool, leaking pipe etc). It has really been a very tough job for Josh and Peter, but they have always been giving their all. We really appreciate their honest and professional approach, eye for detail and they just don't mess around. And besides that, they are just very nice and friendly too. Which definitely is a plus when you have people working around your place every day for a longer period of time!
If you're looking for a company to renovate your pool and you want professionalism, honesty, good workmanship, good communication, fair price and reliability...Malastone Pools is the way to go!
Lenneke van der Aart - van Altena Camp Hill February 2022
Extremely happy with the end result. Thanks Peter & Josh. Our pool is an old pre-fab pool which we lined with a Fibreglass liner about 5 years ago. However, the coping of the pool was in desperate need of repair and we had difficulty finding someone to do this work. If your pool is an older style pool that needs repair, then Peter and Josh are the only choice. They have the experience with these pools that enables them to provide solutions that are tailored to your particular circumstances. For example, Peter was able to develop a method of attaching the new coping form-work that didn’t require drilling into our existing fibreglass lining. It worked a treat. We were able to add a remote-controlled pool light and Peter was even able to source a new robotic pool cleaner for us. The pool now looks amazing and will provide enjoyment for our family for many years to come.
Matt & Jo Holland Park 1/11/2021
Great advice regarding new steps, rails and liner - good timely work - very happy with the renovation.
Thanks Peter and Josh.
Owen and Vandra, Cornubia 15/10/ 2021
A1 service, professionalism, advice and workmanship from Pete and Josh at MPR Malastone Pool Renovations (MPR).
Our 20 year old fibre and concrete pool needed an overhaul - including a new liner and design + installation of lighting. MPR we're quick to respond to our initial enquiry and easy to work with from quote to completion. MPR walked through all options with us and set a great delivery timeline for the project.
Everything worked as it should, no hassle, prompt turnaround, after install check in and as a bonus great people to work with.
We would highly recommend MPR to anyone (as they were to us) - its been a great experience.
Thanks guys!
Liam Ringelstein Camp Hill 4/10/2021
We initially chose Malastone Pools to carry out our pool renovations because we were looking for a local, family business and because their quote was competitive. We made the right choice. Peter and Josh went out of their way to ensure that our very specific needs were met. Our eventual satisfaction was obviously important to them. We are extremely pleased with the finished product. Thank you Peter and Josh.
Bev & Charlie, Gumdale 18/9/2021
Our 40+ year old Pool Fab S1000 was in serious need of some TLC. The steel cables in the prefab coping had rusted through causing a slight "bowing" in the coping. Sections of the coping had also broken off. Peter provided a very detailed quote outlining what was to be done. Peter, Josh and Jason removed the old coping and boxed and cantilevered a new coping bond beam. This was then paved with granite coping pavers and blue mosaic tiles put on the front of the coping. The paving and tiling was meticulous & a new liner was installed. The end result is absolutely brilliant with the pool now looking like a brand new pool. We would highly recommend Malastone Pools for any pool renovations you need done.
Michael and Eileen, Yeronga 28/08/2021
After years of other companies unsuccessfully trying to find the problem, these guys established very quickly that the skimmer box had cracked and needed replacing. Am very pleased to say a prompt return of a phone call and subsequent quote put our mind at ease. These guys were available within a couple of weeks, and went over and above to fix the problem to a high standard and very reasonably priced. Highly recommend. Pool filter now working as new
Noel Shaw 6/06/2021
After a less than successful dabble with a contractor repainting our tired concrete pool, we engaged Malastone Pools who recommended that we resurface with pebblecrete. We accepted their reasonable quote and after a short delay due to inclement weather, the work was completed very expediently by Peter and Josh and their support team. We are extremely happy with the end result and the professional and friendly manner in the way they went about their work. We also appreciated the fact that the work site was always left clean and tidy. Looking forward to next summer as, we are sure, will be our extended family and friends.
Susan and John Holland Park 25/04/2021
We recently had our in ground pool renovated & repaired by Malastone Pools.
Peter & Josh – the owners were both fabulous. Personable, reliable, communicative, honest and informative. Their work was carried out in a professional & timely manner. Nothing was too much trouble for them. Whilst not necessarily the cheapest price, they were great value, they installed confidence, good guys, not sales men.
Thanks again Peter & Josh.
Bernie & Helen, Mt Gravatt. 20/01/2021
Many thanks to you Peter and Josh.
I know that you had to travel quite a bit Northward of the city to repair our particular pool liner, etc. but from our point of view, as Aged Pensioners, it was critical that we had the job done well. We researched other providers but were unable to find any strong contenders.
We chose you!
Your reputation was ahead of you and you met our needs well. It was apparent that you are the EXPERTS in this field, based on your arrival at our house at the time; being conscious of the need to keep our neighbours in mind re: noise and traffic issues, the occasional chat to answer our questions re: the 'what, why, how' issues and so on.
Communication, as often is the case, seems to be the key!!
We are, therefore, more than happy to recommend Josh and Peter at Malastone Pool Renovations for any future pool repair work.
Mel and Roxanne North Lakes 30/9/2020
Peter and Josh and their team did a wonderful job rejuvenating our pool: great communication, friendly and tidy, and an excellent result. Very pleased with the whole experience. Highly recommended.
Greg & Wendy, Robertson 29/08/2020
Peter & Josh have just finished a pool renovation / restoration on our Albatross Pool. We are very happy with the finished product. The attention to detail and their professional approach are evident in the finished product. There were some time delays along the way, which were unavoidable, but Peter kept us informed throughout the whole project. Would highly recommend.
Cath Brennan, Algester 21/07/2020
So nice to deal with an excellent family business! It was not an easy job replacing our skimmer box, but Pete explained it carefully and he and Josh achieved it very skillfully, efficiently and professionally. They were always pleasant and approachable and went above and beyond expectations. We are very happy with the result.
John and Elizabeth 15/07/2020
Our pool needed some fairly drastic repair / maintenance to bring it back to life. From the initial consultation and quote to the final completion MPR were totally professional. We were always updated and consulted at every stage of the renovation. The workmanship is amazing. The workers cleaned up every day and no rubbish was left lying around which was appreciated by us. The pool now looks sensational. Thanks Peter and Josh and your team.
Lindsay and Tuula 8/07/2020
Peter and Josh did an outstanding job. The new pool looks amazing and the liner is a perfect fit - not an easy job for a 30 year old Blakeway pool.Their workmanship is great quality and they were very tidy in cleaning up. They spent a lot of time ensuring I understood the quote and what was involved, and gave me heaps of advice on how to look after the pool too. Great service from the guys, can't recommend them too highly!
Allison Halse, Bracalba 15/05/2020
Big thanks to Peter and the team at MPR, they did a fantastic job of replacing an old leaky pool skimmer. Peter & Josh arrived right on time, I was thrilled with the quality of the workmanship, and the explanation of work that needed to be done. Great communication, we are thrilled with the end result and best of all, no more leaks! Thank you all so much, I highly recommend MPR.
Lisa Moyle, Park Ridge 10/05/2020
I've had nothing but excellent service and workmanship from MPR. Every phone call, meeting and dealing was super professional, and when it came to the work on my pool, the job was done 1000% above my expectations. They really went above and beyond to get the job done in a timely manner too. We could not be happier with the results. Thanks heaps guys!
Blake, Carindale, 2/12/2019
Peter and his team have done a terrific job on our pool renovation, with excellent advice, quality materials and professional attitude and approach to their work. Highly recommended.
Thank you very much.
Paul and Amanda, West Chermside 27/11/2019
Peter & Josh have done a fantastic job of bringing our old pool & surrounds back to life. Outstanding & professional job! Our pool is alive!
Peter & Rosalyn 1/6/2019
Josh, great job on renovating our pool. The new liner looks fabulous & the tiling makes the tired old pool look brand new. Thanks heaps for getting the job done so quickly & efficiently.
The Pipers, Mt Gravatt Dec. 2018
Pete and Josh have just completed an amazing transformation of our old, rundown pool. It looks fantastic. Their ideas and suggestions were great, as was their attention to detail. The whole process was unbelievably smooth and the outcome was better than we expected (and we had pretty high expectations). Highly recommended!!! Thanks again Pete and Josh.
Martin Liannane 10/08/2018
Just a quick note to say a very big thank you to Peter & Josh for the incredible make-over you gave our pool. This is the second pool fix you have done for us over the years - both we have been more than happy with. We very much appreciated the way you conduct business. Advice and quotation were spot on. You turned up as advised and work was carried out as expected/specified. Attention to detail and finishing is first class.
Again, a very huge thank you.
Paul & Judy, Burbank
I can highly recommend this great family business. We have just had our pool done to a very high standard. Pete, Josh and the rest of the team were always punctual & very competitive rates too. Very pleased all round.
Julie Algester 3/7/2016
We just wanted to let you know how happy we are with the work Pete and Josh and Jason did on our pool. It looks fabulous! We really appreciated how you kept us informed on what was happening and when throughout the project. Also for leaving the site clean and tidy.
We would have no hesitation in recommending Malastone Pools for the quality of your work, reliability and practical advice.
Thank you again.
Leanne & Oliver Clare, Carindale 2/4/2016
Thank you to Peter and his team for an excellent pool renovation. Throughout the project Peter communicated clearly to ensure I was happy with decisions and that I understood the work that was required. The site was always kept neat and clean. The finished result is a new look pool while still blending with the existing landscaping. I am happy to recommend Malastone Pool Renovations.
Elizabeth Whitaker, Carindale, Qld 30/03/2016
Peter was contracted to replace the old, faded lining in our salt water pool. We couldn't be happier with the workmanship and professional attitude that Peter displayed. From quoting, initial prep till completion Peter kept us well informed and carried out the renovation quickly and efficiently. Our pool is now a sparkling gem and we love it. We wouldn't hesitate to contact Peter again for any further projects we may have.
Thank you Peter and team for great service and a great product.
Stefan and Samantha, Cleveland Qld 1/3/2016
Peter, Josh and Felicity completed a renovation on our pool and did an outstanding job. They completed the job to a very high standard and ahead of schedule, which meant we back using the pool sooner than expected. They had some great ideas for improving the look of our somewhat dated pool. As a family business they were very personable and great to work with.
We're happy to recommend Malastone Pool Renovations.

Superior Pool Liner Installations - Including Leak Detection & Repair
A vinyl pool liner is an excellent interior for virtually any pool.
It is a smooth & non-abrasive finish which enables the pool to be kept clean & hygienic - more so than any other interior - as it easily prevents the growth of mould, mildew & bacteria, thus reducing both time & expense in the maintaining of your pool, giving you more time to enjoy your pool.
A vinyl liner interior is an excellent solution for a pool where the pool shell is cracked or where there is likely to be a lot of ground movement.
Since the liner is flexible it will conform & flex with any movement of the pool shell.
The material needs to be UV-resistant & the fit must be perfect.
Some pools are very complex in their shape & have numerous steps, benches, etc.
This is when 3D computerised equipment is used to give absolute precise measurements.
For these reasons we use DuraPool liners from Fabric Solutions. They are a superior quality vinyl liner made from the highest quality pool liner material. Pool liners are available in a wide range of colours - both plain & patterned, and a 12 year pro rata warranty is provided by the manufacturer on the liner. Available colours are shown below.
