Our Story

The Walkston Team

Join me, Mark Weston, and my partner Paul Walker, on an extraordinary journey as we introduce our groundbreaking automatic pump system designed to overcome groundwater challenges like never before. With a combined experience of over 55 years in the swimming pool and pool construction industries, our passion for innovation has driven us to find a better solution.

With the invaluable support of an accomplished electrical engineer, known for their exceptional work on government projects and armed services, and a mechanical engineer with expertise in aviation, metro trains, and defense forces, we have harnessed our collective knowledge to bring our revolutionary vision to life.

I take immense pride in the fact that our system is proudly designed and meticulously produced right here in Australia, using predominantly local materials. We are dedicated to showcasing the spirit of homegrown ingenuity and supporting our local industry.

Join us on this exciting journey as we revolutionize groundwater management and set new industry standards along the way. Together, with our exceptional solutions, we are making a lasting impact.

What the industry is saying about Walkston Pumps

  • "The Walkston team installed the Walkston pump 18 months ago. We live in a very wet part of Victoria and the pump usually is active most days, sometimes for hours. Very glad we decided to put the pump in, as now its one thing we don't have to worry about. Highly recommend."

    Eliza Welsh (Wallan Vic)

  • "It's great that someone has finally designed a pump to remove groundwater around a pool that works. Easy to install, great size fitting down a 90/100mm pipe and the sensor which allows hassle free operation. We build 100 plus pools a year and believe this is the best setup to date, using Walkston for 4-6 months and are extremely happy with the results."

    Dean from Gordan Avenue pools (Melbourne)

  • "We have been using the Walkston System for the past few months on all our installations. Straightforward to install, customers are very happy with the ease of the automatic system."

  • "Walkston ground water pumps are quickly becoming a staple in our swimming pool installations. The compact design and ease of installation fits into our current systems and processes seamlessly. These pumps not only offer protection and peace of mind to the clients asset but also to us as the builder - protecting our workmanship, reducing liability and warranty risk when Mother Nature turns against us each year in the wet season."

  • "What do I know about pools, well it turns out I know very little, another thing I didn’t know is how much water sits under a pool. I now know a heap of water hides under a pool like an unwanted troll under a bridge. Walkston pumps work a bloody treat and I’m very glad my pool installer recommended going with Marks product... plus he’s a good egg."

    Shane Jacobson

  • "Lonny here from Splashed out Pools, we just installed another Walkston Ground water pump at a rural property which will attract groundwater, now we will have no future issues plus the customer was very happy we recommended this system. Lonny Splashed Out Pools Victoria."
