When is the best time to build a new pool in Hobart?

As experienced Hobart pool builders know, building a swimming pool in Hobart, South East Tasmania, is best done during the drier months, from February to July. Less rainfall makes this the ideal time to begin the construction of a pool.

Installing a pool during the dry season will help to ensure that the area around your pool is dry and accessible, with less chance of disruption from the weather. Unfortunately, with the dry season comes the summer months, where demand for pool builders is at its highest. This can mean longer wait times for quotes and higher prices due to increased demand.

To ensure you get the most competitive quotes, and that the job is completed in a timely manner, get quotes from the best Hobart pool builders with Poolz today.

I had Greenview Pools and Landscapes come in to landscape my backyard, I found them very easy to deal with from quoting to finished product. Nathan has a lot of knowledge and helped me make decisions about what worked well for my garden. The work was completed as described, the other members of the team were polite and left my backyard clean and tidy. I am really happy with the work that has been completed.

Why do you need so much information to match me?
Curved Arrow Icon

  • your property, pool positioning and soil conditions have a big impact on pricing and vary on every pool
  • pricing varies in different areas.

When you provide your address, we are able to assist you far more effectively and provide you with more accurate information.

Your personal details

Whilst Poolz gives you an instant price estimate, in order to get an accurate quote from a local builder, they need to get in touch with you to arrange a site inspection.

This ensures that you receive accurate quotes from builders who can bring your vision to life.

All the information we ask from you is necessary and helps to ensure we provide you with the best possible outcome. We don’t ask anything a pool builder won’t ask if you went directly to them. Rest assured that the information you provide is securely handled and used solely for the purpose of delivering the best pool-building experience for you.
