+ How much does it cost to build a pool on the Gold Coast?
It depends on the pool type, size, depth, interior finish, filtration, fencing and what the site needs, so a written quote for your block is the only reliable figure. QBCC suggests confirming whether the quote includes fencing, surrounds and landscaping, and the quote should include the Queensland Home Warranty Scheme premium, which applies to domestic building work over $3,300.
+ How long does it take to build a pool?
Build time depends on approvals, excavation conditions and weather, so ask each builder for a program in writing. QBCC recommends the contract covers unforeseen events such as finding rock during excavation or wet weather, and the pool cannot be filled past 300mm until a compliant fence is in place and certified.
+ Who arranges the building approval for a new pool?
In most cases the pool builder arranges it. You or the builder obtain the plans and engineering specifications and engage a building certifier, who lodges the documents with the council.
+ What licence does a pool builder need in Queensland?
A contractor doing pool building work of $3,300 or more, including materials, must hold an appropriate QBCC contractor's licence. QBCC advises checking the builder's licence and licence history before you accept a quote or sign a contract.
