Questions
Common questions
Quotes, timing, payments and cover: what people ask before they book.
Still not sure?
Send a few photos of your pool or yard and we’ll tell you what it needs. Quotes are free.
How do I get a quote?
Send the form with a few photos of your pool or yard, or call 0447 663 868. Photos help us understand the job before we talk, and we usually reply within one business day. We confirm the price after seeing the pool or the yard, and quotes are free.
How long does it take to build a pool?
Usually 8 to 12 weeks on site once the approval is through: excavation, steel, the concrete shell, then plumbing, tiling, coping and the interior. Rock, tight access and wet weather can add time, and the approval itself takes a few weeks before work starts.
How long does a renovation take?
Most take two to four weeks from draining to refilling. A full renovation with structural repairs, new coping or a remodel can take three to eight weeks, and wet weather adds time while the pool is empty. The quote sets out the timing for your pool.
Is my job covered by home warranty insurance?
Yes, when it is over $20,000. NSW law requires Home Building Compensation cover for residential building work over $20,000, and we arrange it before the job starts. The certificates issued for our jobs are recorded on the NSW licence register.
See our home warranty certificates on the registerHow do payments work?
For residential work over $20,000, NSW law caps the deposit at 10% of the contract price, and the rest is paid in progress payments as each stage is finished, for example the excavation, the concrete shell and the interior. Smaller jobs follow the payment terms in the quote. The contract sets out every payment before work starts.
What warranty do I get?
Residential building work in NSW carries the statutory warranties of the Home Building Act 1989: six years for major defects and two years for other defects. Pumps, filters and other equipment also carry their manufacturer’s warranty.
