How much does it cost to build a pool?

The most popular pool designs in Australia cost between $55,000 and $65,000. This includes the build and installation of the pool shell, coping tiles, pump, filter and chlorinator on a flat block of land with good access. Additional tiling, fencing and items such as heating are extra costs.

How it works

We visit once, design to your budget, and bring builders to quote - all before you commit.

A single expert site visit

A Poolz expert visits your home, assesses the site, and captures all the details - so no builder has to guess.

3D design & detailed plan

We design your pool, tailored to your goals and budget. You get a full 3D concept, scope of work, and list of inclusions.

Quotes from trusted builders

We send your plan to vetted builders who quote the exact same design - making comparisons clear and fair.

Choose your builder with confidence

We review your quotes with you, answer your questions, and help you select the right builder - no pressure, just clarity.

What are standard inclusions when building a pool?

Pool builders generally include these items with all new swimming pool projects.

Excavation

Pool builders will include an excavation allowance as part of the quoted pool price that covers the equipment, digging and soil removal required. A reasonable excavation allowance is around $5,000.

Heating provisions

Even if you do not initially want pool heating, many pool builders will include heating provisions so you can easily add heating in the future without the need for major works to your swimming pool.

Pool lights

Most pool builders will include at least one blue pool light or one LED light. If you select a higher quality pool builder, they may provide two LED multicolour lights as a standard inclusion.

Coping tiles

Coping tiles are a standard part of every pool build, however pool builders will vary in terms of the type and quality of coping tiles they provide - from concrete at the low end, to travertine and custom drop face at the top end.

Building insurance

All licensed pool builders are required to include the premium for insurance through the relevant State based building authority for all projects over a minimum value, which most pool builds typically exceed.

Pool cleaner

Pool builders will include cleaning equipment for your new pool, however this will vary from a pole and vacuum head to an automated cleaner or robotic cleaner depending on the quality and price of the builder you select.

Malibu Pools & Spas (NSW)

reviews

Shane and Catherine at Malibu have been nothing but a pleasure to deal with. Building a pool is both costly and timely, but our experience was enjoyable as their customer service and support throughout the build gave us piece of mind. Shane’s expertise and contacts within the industry made getting things done on schedule a breeze. Catherine’s friendly and patient customer service went above and beyond our expectations. They always answered our calls and worked with us on making sure we were happy with the end product. We are so happy with our pool and the quality of the finishes and would highly recommend Malibu if you are considering a custom concrete pool.

Riparian Constructions

We used Ben and his team for our pool construction. The whole process was excellent and top quality from start to finish. The area we had was limited yet Ben came up with a great design and we went with it. Ben spent a bit of time with us even on his weekends to ensure the design was within our needs and the construction started. The entire time through the construction care was taken to ensure no damage to property and the area was kept clean inside our yard and out (even high pressure cleaned dirt on the road, how many builders do this?). The process flowed well the entire time and Ben always kept us in the loop or would answer if we had any questions or concerns. The quote originally supplied was adhered to and there were no surprises delivering the pool on budget and time. In my opinion Riparian Constructions are a Top quality pool builder and highly recommend Ben and the team from Riparian Constructions.

Jill & Rob from the sales team were amazing from start to finish. Our pool was constructed during flood & covid, which created some frustrations. However the end product was more than we could have hoped for. Well done to the team at profile pools. Troy and his onsite team were amazing too.

reviews

o so happy with our first concrete pool and the Alpha team. From day 1 Phil was amazing with our quoting etc took the time to give us all options and even communicated over the Christmas period. Jacob, Andrew, Steve and all of the trades were fantastic. I haven't dealt with a company like Alpha Pools for a long time where the communication is second to none. It has been a nice change in this day and age. Every step of the way even if someone was running a little late we were advised. To say we are over the moon with our overall result is an understatement. Thanks so much to ALL of the team at Alpha Pools. (Grey marble from Stone Craft and Sea Breeze from Tiles on Bradman)

Peressin Pools

A huge thankyou to everyone at Peressin Pools. This family business is one of the most professional outfits I have ever dealt with. From the first contact through to handover, Peressin have been professional, friendly, on time, super responsive, honest and reliable. They have built us an exceptional quality pool surrounded by a gorgeous paved area. They go the extra mile with their attentiveness and attention to detail. Before embarking on building a pool, we thoroughly researched SA pool builders and couldn't go past Peressin. Their excellent reputation is well deserved.

Why does Poolz need my address?

We require your address to provide you with accurate and relevant information for your pool project. Your address helps us understand the specific details of your property as it relates to building a pool - things like: site access, slope, soil type, local regulations and more.
