Should I build my own pool to save money? Owner Builders please take note!

So you are asking yourself whether you could build your own pool to save money.  Unfortunately, the answer isn’t always yes!  The cost difference of owner-builder vs Master builder for you swimming pool is probably about 10% or less (based on when we are engaged by owner-builders to build a concrete shell only with basic pre-plumb included and get an understanding of the finishing costs quoted).

Reputable pool builders in Sydney pride themselves on negotiating excellent rates with the best pool trades and pool equipment suppliers in Sydney.

The biggest issues facing owner builders are

  • sourcing reputable trades in a competitive market,
  • trying to negotiate builders volume discounts which are hard to negotiate and finally
  • trying to chase trades when things go wrong!  This is when the finger pointing begins.

This is why Lap of Luxury Pools believes that having a premium swimming pool built 100% trouble free for a small additional cost is worth it!

We are happy to work with owner builders to take the risk out of the project so please give us a call and we are happy to discuss with you what we can offer to make it a trouble free experience.
