Swimming pool costs in Brisbane generally range from $40,000 to $80,000 for a standard setup. The final price can vary based on factors like pool size, type, site conditions, and what’s included. For example, plunge pools (5m x 3m) usually cost between $42,480 and $62,880, while larger family pools tend to fall between $50,000 and $70,000.

Feel free to reach out to us at 0404 845 406 or daniel@clpools.com.au for a personalised quote tailored just for you.
How long does it take to build a pool in Brisbane?
Concrete pools usually take around 12 weeks to build from beginning to end. This timeline includes everything from design consultations, council approvals, excavation, construction, to finishing touches. On the other hand, Plungie pools can be installed much quicker, often within just a few days because they’re pre-cast. Keep in mind, weather, site complexity, and council approval processes can influence the total time it takes.
CL Pools manages the entire process to ensure your pool is completed efficiently and to the highest standards.
Do I need council approval for a pool in Brisbane?
Yes, you need building approval for your swimming pool and pool fence from either Brisbane City Council or a private certifier. All residential pools in Queensland must also be registered with the Queensland Building and Construction Commission (QBCC). You cannot fill your pool with water until the building certifier has certified that the pool barriers and fencing comply with the pool safety standard. CL Pools handles all approval processes for you, ensuring compliance with Brisbane City Council requirements and Queensland regulations.
What's the difference between concrete pools and Plungie pools?
Concrete Pools are built right at your location from scratch, giving you endless options to design and customise. They are made entirely onsite to match your unique specifications and can be moulded into any shape you imagine.
Plungie Pools are pre-made concrete pools crafted in a factory and delivered ready for easy installation on your site. Installing a Plungie is more than 74% quicker than traditional pools and they come in standard sizes and shapes to make things simple. At CL Pools, we’re happy to offer both options – custom concrete pools for full flexibility and personalised design, or Plungie pools for quick setup and reliable quality.
Do I need a fence around my pool?
Yes, all pools need to be surrounded by a fence, even if you don’t have children living at your property, unless you’ve received a pool fencing exemption. Pool barriers should adhere to the Queensland Government pool safety laws under Chapter 8 of the Building Act 1975. Keep in mind that fines for not having proper fencing can range from one penalty unit to 165 penalty units, with each penalty unit valued at $161.30 as of July 2024.
CL Pools ensures all our installations include compliant pool fencing and safety barriers as part of our comprehensive service.
Can I build a pool on a sloping block in Brisbane?
Yes, pools can be built on sloping sites, and we’re happy to help you understand what that involves. Keep in mind, this might influence the cost and how we approach construction. Sometimes, form working is necessary where the pool is above the existing ground level, which can be a bit more costly than usual excavation. But don’t worry—plunge pools are a fantastic option for any site, including sloping blocks! They can be installed in-ground, partially out of the ground, or fully above ground, giving you flexible choices. At CL Pools, we have a wealth of experience working with tricky sites and sloping blocks across Brisbane, and we’re here to provide tailored engineered solutions for any terrain.
What pool maintenance is required after installation?
Pool maintenance requirements include regular cleaning, chemical balance, and equipment upkeep with annual costs around $2,000 to $3,000. Concrete pools may require resurfacing every 10 to 15 years at a cost of $10,000-$15,000. Modern pool equipment and mineral pool systems can significantly reduce maintenance requirements.
CL Pools provides comprehensive handover training and ongoing support to help you maintain your pool efficiently and cost-effectively.
Can I renovate my existing pool instead of building new?
Absolutely! Renovating your pool can be a budget-friendly alternative to a full replacement. Typically, renovation projects include refreshing the surface, upgrading equipment, replacing tiles, updating coping, and fixing structural issues. The extent of work depends on the current state of your pool and what you want to achieve. CL Pools loves helping residents across Brisbane turn their pools into beautiful, modern aquatic retreats with fresh finishes and new equipment.
