Looking to have built (do you build a pool or dig a pool.... anyway!) a 10x5 pool.

Anyone got any pros and cons between concrete and fibreglass would be gratefully rec'd too !

Hope the drought is over before you want to fill it

Hi! We cut out the middle man and contacted a company called SprayCon... they are actually the company that are contacted by the fancy showrooms to do exactly the same job, we cut over $10,000 off our job... got a 12m x 9m figure of 8 shape pool for less than $20,000. we recommended them to our neighbours who were just about to have their pool done.. they had 3 different quotes and Spraycon beat their cheapest by $10,000... so of course they went with them and were more than pleased and we got a nice meal and beer from the saving... what more can you want??? We are up on the Sunshine Coast but I believe they do Brisbane too, as the guys who were actually spraying the concrete were from Brisbane.... oh yes.. it is a concrete pool in case i didnt make it clear, but still a lot cheaper than fibreglass pool and a lot bigger.. hope this helps. If you are interested I will get my husband to dig out their contact number...

Hi! You need to ring mobile number 0438138696... and ask for Ses, and mention Andy from Mapleton. He will be able to give you a good deal if he covers your area. Good luck and I hope he can help you out.

Hi There

Wehad a 9 x 4 (25 linear metres) concrete, saltwater chlorine, built in 5 weeks last March by Pools 4 U, Thornelands, Redland shire. Excellent, thorough, professional and exceedingly helpful. Can't say enough about them, the pool is stunning and has been used most days - holds 50,000 litres so the only issue is where in Brissie you are and if there are going to be new restrictions on filling new pools with the level 5 retrictions.

PM me for their contact number
