Every swimming pool we build is unique. The value factors like pool size, site access, finish quality, heating, automation, advanced features, pool covering and landscaping make a big difference to where the final cost sits. As a general guide, high-end custom concrete pools often start from $230,000 + GST, with full landscape packages adding costs on upwards from there.
