Rethinking pool building for Australians

Our mission
Why I started Poolz
In 2021, I bought a new house and went to put a pool in the backyard. What should have been exciting turned into one of the worst experiences I've had as a homeowner.
Builders didn't return my calls. When they did, they showed up late, were in a rush, and didn't want to answer my questions. It felt like I was an inconvenience to them - and I was the one spending $150k!
The quotes were vague and full of gaps. I thought I was being smart - but I ended up being over budget, overwhelmed, and under-supported.
That experience led me to create Poolz.
We exist to make sure no other family goes through what I did - with proper planning, clear advice, and quotes you can actually compare.

Frequently asked questions
No - we’re not a builder and we don’t carry out any construction work. Poolz exists to help homeowners navigate the early stages of planning a pool. We assist with conceptual designs and help you get quotes from licensed pool builders. Our designs are for inspiration and quoting only - they are not construction plans. You’ll still need certified engineering and a formal contract with your chosen builder.
We do not manage your build or act on your behalf. Our job is to help you make informed decisions and avoid costly mistakes - not to replace the role of a licensed contractor. We’re proud to work alongside some of Australia's best builders to make the pool-building process easier and more transparent.
Absolutely not. We’ll never send your details to anyone without your permission. With EasyBuild, we only approach builders after we’ve scoped your project, completed a design, and confirmed you’re ready for quotes. If we don't offer EasyBuild in your area, we will offer to introduce you to up to three vetted builders in your area - if you would like us to do this, then we will share your details with those builders, but only if you specifically request that.
We’re paid by the builder you choose - but only after we’ve helped you compare accurate quotes and you’ve signed with confidence. It doesn’t cost you more. In fact, it usually saves you thousands by getting more accurate quotes, avoiding blowouts and missing items.
We carefully vet every builder based on licence history, quality, communication, and reliability. We monitor performance continuously - if a builder doesn’t meet our standards, we remove them from our network.
That’s fine too. If you choose a builder outside our network, we’ll provide the design files. In that case, a design fee will apply - but we’ll let you know upfront.
