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.

Highly recommend Ocean Breeze Pools!! From start to finish, went above and beyond. I’m a big believer in great communication and these guys had just that. Called prior and delivered every time they said they would be onsite. Even started the pool a week early than expected. The team from Megan and the girls in the office to Paul and his guys onsite are fantastic. Very happy customers here - 5 stars, you won’t be disappointed 👌👌

I have been very happy with the work completed by Lone Pine Landscapes over the years. Edward and the team designed and constructed a modern outdoor entertaining area for our family home which instantly added value to the property. We have also utilized Lone Pines professional services at our office space to design and construct gardens near the main entrance/ driveway. Thank you Edward, Jimmy and the team for your great work over the years - I highly recommend these guys for any landscape design and construction services!

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.
