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.

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!

Bob from Brilliant took us through the design & planning of our new concrete pool. Bill organised the building process. The end product speaks for itself - a high quality job at a reasonable price - that accommodated a few design changes as we went. Bob & Bill are experienced, available to answer questions and don't give you the runaround. Would highly recommend them to anyone considering a concrete pool or repairing one

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!

Kinetic Pools

reviews

We had our pool installed in August 2022. The whole process was fast and efficient and the quality of work was exemplary. I appreciated that the quotes included everything you actually needed to build the pool first time, rather than providing a low quote and continually adding on extras. The final build cost was as we expected, so no nasty surprises. The whole team were great to deal with and nothing was stressful, even when some plans had to be changed. Now we have the pool we had dreamt about for so many years. I would highly recommend Kinetic pools.

Icing on the cake! We are very happy with the end result, thanks to Banora Pools! We knew it will be challenging for anyone to build our pool due to the slope of our land. The site also provided some challenges in terms of access. But with careful planning and clever design, Banora Pools was able to deliver a stunning pool that integrates seamlessly with our house and the existing landscape. Andrew and the team at Banora Pools are great to work with. Andrew listens to what you want and makes them happen. The quality of work of the subcontractors are of high standard. In the end, we got a beautiful pool that has added value to our home and ambience to our yard. Well worth the cost. Thank you Banora Pools, we will enjoy this now and for years to come!

Complete Fibreglass Pool Kits

Rohan, Fiona and Jo have been fantastic to deal with. They are very professional, helpful and efficient. Rohan will answer all your questions and always returns calls promptly if unavailable. Fiona and Jo have kept me updated on product availability and delivery for some extra items we ordered and always keep us well informed. No problem or question is too big or small. The pool itself is amazing, we are so happy with it and have had so many comments on how good it looks and the quality. The crane hire company we used said it’s the best quality fibreglass pool they’ve seen. Definitely recommend going through Rohan and his team at Complete Fibreglass Pools if you’re looking at installing your own pool.

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.
