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

As experienced Gold Coast pool builders know, the dry season in South East Queensland is from April to the end of September. Because of the lower rainfall during this time, it is the best time of year to build a swimming pool. With less moisture in the air, the ground is less likely to shift and cause damage to the pool in the future.

During summer on the Gold Coast, demand for pool builders is highest. This can mean that it is more difficult to secure a builder and the timeframe for the project may be longer, potentially leading to an increased cost.

Although we had to wait a whole year for our pool build the staff at century pools were very professional at their job and knew exactly what they were doing. I did find I was chasing them at different stages of my build but communication was excellent and I guess it is just the fact that they are so busy. Our pool was functional as promised by Xmas and fully completed end of January. They also laid an extra big slab for my new shed to house my filtration at no extra charge.

Norfolk did an amazing job on our pool. All the tradies that work with Norfolk were professional and their attention to detail was exceptional. The ability to be able to ring our Norfolk consultant at any stage of the construction and ask questions was fantastic. I highly recommend the team at Norfolk and the tradies they recommend to complete other works that is required. Thanks Norfolk, Craig and the boys from Outline fencing, Mark the Sparky and Duncan from INsnrg. Clem & Trudy Gribble Nundah Qld

When we decided to build an in ground Swimming pool the measure and quote was amazing! When we didn’t think access was possible they said it was no problem! We signed in March and there was a 6 month wait. Which was okay! Once the build started it was quick, efficient and followed the 6 week plan. Every stage was executed well with respectful workman. Once the pool was finished there was a very basic explanation to the workings of the pool. What would have been good is recommendation on how to clean a cartridge filter, what different PSI meant, any tips such as using filtration socks to prevent the filter clogging. I would have liked also, the site to have been given a priority clean up. We had to wait over 2-3 weeks to get rubbish removed. Overall the service was fabulous. Not one day does not go past when we stand and admire our pool, swim in it or at least marvel how it was all possible! Thank you for an amazing experience!

Rohan, Fiona and Jo have been fantastic to deal with. They are very professional, helpful and efficient. Rohan will answer all your questions and always returns calls promptly if unavailable. Fiona and Jo have kept me updated on product availability and delivery for some extra items we ordered and always keep us well informed. No problem or question is too big or small. The pool itself is amazing, we are so happy with it and have had so many comments on how good it looks and the quality. The crane hire company we used said it’s the best quality fibreglass pool they’ve seen. Definitely recommend going through Rohan and his team at Complete Fibreglass Pools if you’re looking at installing your own pool.

Icing on the cake! We are very happy with the end result, thanks to Banora Pools! We knew it will be challenging for anyone to build our pool due to the slope of our land. The site also provided some challenges in terms of access. But with careful planning and clever design, Banora Pools was able to deliver a stunning pool that integrates seamlessly with our house and the existing landscape. Andrew and the team at Banora Pools are great to work with. Andrew listens to what you want and makes them happen. The quality of work of the subcontractors are of high standard. In the end, we got a beautiful pool that has added value to our home and ambience to our yard. Well worth the cost. Thank you Banora Pools, we will enjoy this now and for years to come!
