Installing a New Pool? - Here's What to Expect
So, you’ve received a quote, had a site visit, and are getting closer to making your pool dreams a reality, but what happens next?

At Sydney Poolscapes, we’ve simplified the process into 8 clear stages to help guide you from planning to your first swim.


- Getting Started
Once you’re ready to proceed, we’ll request a few final details to prepare your contract. When that’s signed, you’re officially on the books. - Approval
If we’re handling approvals, we’ll prepare your plans and submit everything to the certifier. If you’re managing this step, we’ll simply request those documents before we start site works. - Excavation
Once approvals are cleared and your pool shell has arrived at our yard, we’ll book in excavation. This typically takes two days, including soil removal.
- Installation
Within 5 business days of excavation, your pool shell will be craned into place, filled with water, backfilled, and plumbed in. - Concrete
We’ll schedule and pour the concrete bond beam and surrounds shortly after installation, a key step in locking everything into place. - Equipment Installation
Once the concrete’s set, we’ll install your filtration, heating, and cleaning systems to get everything running smoothly. - Handover
Our Technician will walk you through your equipment and pool care, answering any questions so you feel confident from day one. - Final Certification
We’ll guide you through the last step: obtaining your final Occupation Certificate, and then it's time for your first swim!

From start to finish, we’re here to make the process smooth, transparent, and enjoyable. Have any questions? Call us any time on 1300 112 488, we’d love to help.
