Planning to build a new pool? Our simplified 6-step guide is here to help you navigate your new pool construction journey from concept to completion. Whether you’re after a sleek modern design or a natural escape, this guide ensures you’re well-prepared before meeting your builder.
What kind of pool do you like?
Before building a new pool, take some time to explore different styles. Browse our gallery or search on Pinterest. This helps you figure out what you like, making it easier to discuss with your pool builder.
How can you share your ideas?
Make a folder of pool photos you love. Include shapes, water colours, and features like steps or waterfalls. This gives your builder a clear picture of your dream pool.
What shape should the pool be?
How will you use your pool?
Will you swim for exercise, relaxation, entertaining guests, or creating a fun spot for the kids? Deciding this helps with design, depth, and layout.
What water colour do you like best?
Water colour depends on the finish, depth, sunlight, and nearby plants. Common colours include:
Which pool finish is right for you?
There are three main types:
For a high-end finish that looks great and lasts longer, opt for a genuine PebbleTec surface.
What features do you want?
Think about anything special you’d like, such as a waterfall, lights, tanning ledge, spa jets, sound system, or safety covers. It’s easier and cheaper to add these during the build than afterward.
Where will the pool go in your yard?
Select a spot that receives sufficient sunlight, fits your space, and provides you with privacy. Also, check for trees, patios, or other obstructions that may affect the pool's location.
What’s your budget?
Know how much you’re willing to spend before meeting your builder. Create a list of your must-haves to stay on track and avoid surprises later.
Choose someone with experience in new pool construction. Check their reviews, review past projects, and ensure they’re licensed and insured.
Discuss your ideas and share your photo folder. Share your budget and feel free to ask any questions. A good builder will listen and offer helpful suggestions.
Once the design is finalized, your builder will provide you with the final quote, layout, and schedule. Make sure you understand every detail before signing off.
Now the real work begins! Your builder will take care of everything—digging, plumbing, framing, and applying the finish. You’ll be updated along the way.
Once the pool is ready, it’s time to relax and enjoy! You’ve turned your backyard into a beautiful space, and it’s all yours.
