Pool Builders Gold Coast

The timeline varies depending on the design, pool shape, site conditions, and weather. On average, it takes around 8 – 12 weeks to complete.

We specialise in custom concrete pools, offering a wide range of designs from family-friendly to luxury pools. Common types include plunge pools, infinity edge pools, geometric pools, freeform (resort) pools and lap pools. The best part about building concrete pools is that the design options are virtually limitless!

Yes, pools require council approval to ensure compliance with building regulations and safety. We manage all necessary permits and approvals on your behalf.

The cost of building a pool depends on many factors like the size of the pool, the type of design, materials, and any additional features such as spa, water features, steps and lighting. But they typically start out anywhere from $40,000 to well over $100,000. For a personalised quote tailored to your needs, feel free to contact us.

Regular maintenance includes cleaning, checking filtration, and balancing water chemistry. We can guide you on maintenance routines.

Absolutely! We work with you to create a pool that fits your vision and your home, including custom shapes, finishes, and features like lighting or waterfalls. If you have something in mind, we’d love to discuss your ideas and work out the best way to achieve them.

We use high-quality concrete and materials designed for durability, safety, and aesthetic appeal, ensuring your pool lasts for decades.

Yes, we provide complete landscaping and pool building solutions, including decking, fencing, plants and outdoor features.

Some of the safety features we incorporate include non-slip surfaces, pool fences, and compliant drain covers to ensure your pool is safe for all ages.

After pool construction is complete, it typically takes a few days for the pool to be filled, treated, and ready for use.

We offer warranties on both the structure and equipment, ensuring long-term peace of mind.

Yes, we offer renovation services for existing pools, including upgrades to finishes, filtration systems, and adding modern features.

Choosing the right pool size for your property will depend on a few factors: how much of your yard you want to allocate for the pool, your budget, and any specific site conditions like the position of water or sewer mains, nearby trees, or access to other parts of the block.

Here are some typical sizes for different types of pools:

• Plunge pools: 5×3 metres, 6×4 metres, 7×3 metres
• Family pools: 7×3 metres, 8×4 metres, 9×4 metres
• Lap pools: 9×2.5 metres, 10×3 metres, 15×3 metres

Your decision should also take into account any landscaping plans and how the pool will integrate into the overall outdoor space.

Yes, even if you don’t have much space, it’s still possible to get a pool. We specialise in building pools in tight or challenging spaces, however its important to keep in mind that difficult sites can sometimes lead to higher costs.

The best way to find out what’s possible with your block is to book a site assessment with our team. We can assess your space, discuss design options, and provide advice before you decide to proceed.

There are three key stages in building a pool:

Pre-construction:
This includes the site assessment, design, and proposal, as well as engineering work.

Council approval:
Most pools require council approval, which we can manage for you.

Construction and finishing:
This covers everything from excavation to building the pool, installing fencing, and completing any landscaping.

While concrete pools can be more expensive upfront than fibreglass pools, they offer several key advantages:

• Flexibility: Concrete pools can be built to any shape, size, or depth, so they are tailored to your specific space and needs. They can be constructed both in-ground and out-of-ground.
• Customisation: Concrete allows for a range of features like steps, ledges, wet edges, or unique design elements such as beach entrances.
• Finishes: With concrete pools, you have a wide variety of finishing options, including tiles, pebbles, quartz, and coloured render, giving your pool a more refined look.

Durability: Concrete pools are long-lasting, resistant to scratches and stains, and with correct maintenance, can last for 50 years or more.

Coping refers to the edge or flat walking surface around your pool. Natural stone, such as sandstone, limestone, or travertine, is a popular choice due to its durability and aesthetic appeal. These materials tend to last longer and resist movement better than some man-made alternatives. 

Tip: If you’re using sandstone around a saltwater pool, we suggest sealing it to prevent salt damage over time.

The ideal location for your pool will depend on several factors, including sun exposure for natural heating of the water, shelter from wind, maximum privacy, and of course how it fits within your overall backyard layout. Allowing for safe supervision of children is another top concern for many families, as well as avoiding challenging conditions such as hitting rock during excavation, sewer and water lines. 

Our team can provide recommendations based on your block’s characteristics during the planning phase.

Yes! A spa can be integrated into your pool design or installed as a separate feature. Spas are a great addition for year-round use. We can discuss the different options for heating, jet systems, and positioning to create a seamless and functional pool-spa combination.

Saltwater pools use a salt chlorinator to generate chlorine, which means less handling of chemicals and softer water that’s gentler on the skin and eyes. Chlorine pools, on the other hand, require manual addition of chlorine. 

Both options keep the water clean and safe, but many people prefer the low-maintenance appeal of saltwater systems. We can advise on the best option for your lifestyle.

Yes, a pool can be installed on a sloping block, though it may require additional engineering solutions such as retaining walls or terracing. Infinity edge pools are a popular choice for sloping sites, allowing you to make the most of any views. We have experience in designing pools for challenging landscapes and can create a plan that works with your block’s natural contours.

There are a few options for heating your pool, including solar heating, electric heat pumps, and gas heaters. Solar heating is eco-friendly and cost-effective in the long term, while heat pumps and gas heaters provide faster heating, especially in cooler months.

There are plenty of great features you can add to enhance your pool, including waterfalls, lighting, integrated spas, swim jets, and in-floor cleaning systems. You can also choose custom finishes like mosaic tiles or pebbles, as well as landscaping features such as decking or fire pits. These options allow you to create a pool that not only looks great but turns your backyard into a practical outdoor space that enhances your lifestyle.
