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

The best time of year to build a pool in Sydney, New South Wales is during the dry season. As experienced Sydney pool builders know, the dry season in Sydney is typically from July through to December.

During this time, there is less rainfall, making it the optimal period to build a swimming pool. This means construction can be completed quicker, as there is less chance of delays caused by inclement weather.

Furthermore, because the demand for pool builders is highest in summer, it is best to get the work done during the dry season to avoid higher costs. This is due to the increased competition for the services of the best Sydney pool builders during the peak season. Get quotes from the best Sydney pool builders with Poolz today, and start your pool build journey during the dry season for the best results.

We brought a house that came with our first pool. The team at outback pool’s could not have been more helpful. They took time to explain what we had to do and how to do it with genuine concern and did not just sell us lots of stuff. Daniel came to our place and fitted up cost saving pump and offered great advice. Highly recommended.

Harrison's Landscaping

We highly recommend Harrison's Landscaping. We have recently completed our massive back-yard and pool reno with Harrison's, and are exceptionally pleased with the result. Having never before taken on a project of this size, we were naturally very nervous about trusting all of this work to one company, when most other options were a separate pool reno and landscaper. In the end, our experience, the result, and the professional service right from the first day of engagement, was second-to-none, and all of our fears went out the window. Initial consultations with the Sam's showed they were attentive, imaginative, and realistic, not to mention incredibly talented. Once work started, Ben G managed our project (excellent) and the team of Ben F, Scotty and new recruit Dylan were polite, easy to talk to, and nothing was ever too hard for them - not even after the thousand or so buckets of dirt hand-carried to the skip. The end result is unbelievable, the old yard unrecognisable. We went in nervous, and came out knowing we made the right choice.

Matt and his team did an amazing job with our pool. Matt gave us ideas on the design of the pool and spa, recommended pool mosaic tiles and pool surround tiles to complement the leafy suburb of Turramurra. He takes a lot of pride and professionalism in his work. Our pool & spa is stunning and I would definitely build another pool with Splish splash pools. I couldn’t speak highly enough of Matt and his team.

We shopped around for about a year before deciding to go with Daniel and Outback Pools and very glad we did. Fantastic pool, great quality trades, top quality pool equipment and overall finish. Reasonably priced, they were excellent to deal with, from design to council to building. Everything went almost perfect for us. Highly recommended.

We came across Brian's business about 5 years ago when we were looking to build a cabana and a pool. I can say that we were very fortunate to find Brian and engage him with our project. And what a fine work he did!! During the whole journey Brian has been committed, he communicated with us about everything and always going the extra mile ensuring the work is done to the finest of quality. One thing is sure, Brian is passionate about what he does and this shows in the final product he delivered. He is a perfectionist and has an amazing work integrity and care. I can not speak highly enough of his work ethics! We are very happy with the work and would highly recommend Brian and his team to anyone.

Aquify Pools

Building a pool can be a daunting task, but with the help of professional builders, it can be a breeze. I recently had a fiberglass pool built by Acquify and I must say, I am quite impressed with the whole process and the final result. The team of builders were creative and made sure to incorporate all my wants and needs into the final design. They were also very professional and helpful throughout the entire process. From the initial consultation to the final touches, they made sure everything was done to my exact specifications. Marcelo made sure all my questions were answered and all concerns addressed. Matt was also amazing and took care of us through the whole process. The fiberglass material used in constructing the pool is very strong and the colour is amazing. I have no doubt that it will last for many years to come. They were very honest with the costs and recommended amazing company’s to help us with the paving, fence and landscaping. Overall, I am thrilled with the end result and I would highly recommend this professional builder to anyone considering building a fiberglass pool. They exceeded my expectations in every way and I look forward to enjoying this beautiful addition to my backyard for years to come.
