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.

Thanks Compass Pools Melbourne and their team members Amy Bronwyn Daniel Paul and Xavier. From concept to final inspection the staff were patient, helpful, knowledgeable and that resulted in a great outcome for my family because we have never had a pool before. The decision to install the inbuilt cleaning has been a very sensible decision because the pool has been minimal maintenance for my family. Highly recommend Compass Pools as as a full start to finish service provider.

From the Day Les called in to see us about our wants and needs for our new pool design the process became so easy. Detail and experience from the whole team was outstanding in every aspect, communication, time frames, pricing and not to mention FANTASTIC back up service from the Girls at MFP. Over the years my Wife and Myself have installed 4 pools using various companies, MFP would be the go to people for all your needs. As mentioned, from the time inspection was completed till the final handshake from the fencing team we could not be any happier.

We couldn’t be happier with our pool renovation. Anthony and his team helped us bring an old, non-compliant pool back to life in what was a very challenging project. Each challenge was met with creative and thoughtful solutions and the end result has been fantastic. I would thoroughly recommend Mr Pools!

Complete Fibreglass Pool Kits

I was going to wait until all of the landscaping was done until I made my review so that I could show the pool in it's full glory. But today I received a thoughtful gift to say thank you from Complete Fibreglass Pool Kits and I couldn't wait any longer. Rohan and Fiona have been amazing to work with. We got the pool shape we wanted, in the colour we wanted all in under 3 weeks for an incredible price. I thought all pool companies were in the same class as dodgy used car salesmen until I came across these guys. They are honest, caring, thoughtful, reasonable, high quality and well priced. Any problems were solved before I could even bring them up, they weren't even their fault and they were considerate and understanding. Helpful from start to finish. Word of mouth is the best advertising, we have clients in our family business often wanting pools and we now have someone we can recommend.

I recently had the pleasure having the staff at Banora Pools build my pool, and I must say that Andrew, Ed, Lewis, and Matt were exceptional. They were not only professional, but also very friendly. Andrew, in particular, went above and beyond to answer my numerous questions and was always available whenever I needed assistance. I am extremely satisfied with the end result and would like to express my gratitude to the team. Thank you!

We understand the importance of timely responses, and we strive to provide you with quotes as quickly as possible. Generally, you can expect to be matched with the best local pool professionals within 1-3 business days after completing the GET QUOTES form on our site.

Some pool professionals will provide you with an indicative quote right away, whereas others will want to do a site visit before providing you with a quote. Please note, any quote you get without a site visit will be an estimate only.

In order to get accurate quotes, you will need to invite the pool pro's to your house to inspect your site and discuss your pool in more detail. Once this has happened, you will get get accurate quotes you can rely on. The time this takes depends on how long it takes for the site visit to be organised.

If you have any concerns or need further assistance, our customer support team is here to help.

Are the quotes free?

Absolutely! Obtaining quotes through Poolz is completely free for homeowners. Finding a great local pool builder is hard, so our goal is to make your life easier by connecting you with reputable pool builders who can provide competitive and accurate quotes for your project.

You can explore different options, compare quotes, and make informed decisions about building your dream pool without incurring any charges from Poolz. We're here to simplify the process and ensure you have access to the information you need to make the best choice for your pool project.

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. In addition, we use your address as part of the selection process to match you with pool builders to get up to 3 quotes.

Rest assured that we value your privacy and handle your personal information with the utmost care and security. Your address is used solely for the purpose of facilitating the pool building process and ensuring that you receive the best possible service tailored to your location.

Why does Poolz need my name, email and mobile number?

Simply, it is impossible to connect you with pool builders to get quotes if we don't know who you are and cannot contact you! Whilst our real-time price estimate gives you a very good guide as to the price of your pool, until you deal directly with a pool builder, you won't be able to get a more accurate quote.

Rest assured that we handle your personal information with the utmost care and privacy, adhering to strict security measures to safeguard your data. We respect your privacy and will never share your information without your consent.

Will my personal details be visible to everyone?
