Building Your Dream Pool Without the Surprises—We Break Down the True Costs

At Cronulla Pools, we don’t just build pools—we build trust.

If you’ve ever spoken to a friend or neighbour about their pool-building experience, chances are you’ve heard stories of unexpected costs creeping in. Rock removal, site access challenges, sewer encasements —things that weren’t accounted for in their initial quote. Unfortunately, many pool builders either avoid these conversations upfront or don’t have the experience to anticipate them.

That’s where we’re different.

Why Hidden Costs Happen

Most families dream of a backyard oasis, but the journey from design to completion can feel overwhelming—especially when unexpected expenses arise. Common Unexpected Costs to Consider:

✅ Excavation – Rock removal or poor soil conditions.

✅ Site access limitations – Mini diggers or neighbouring fence removal.

✅ Sydney Water Assets - Locating and steering clear of services underground.

✅ Embellished Design - Designing outside of your budget.

When builders don’t bring these factors up early, clients end up with a budget blowout mid-project. That’s not how we operate.
