1. Effective Planning

The foundation of your DIY plunge pool should be effective planning. 

This saves you time, money, and ensures you make smart decisions, from securing Council permits to choosing the perfect pool size.

2. Size Matters

When selecting your pool size, think carefully about your backyard space. 

Ensure there's ample room not only for the pool - but also for lounging and relaxation. 

Deciding on the right size plunge pool is key to creating your perfect at-home retreat.

3. Time Management

If you're dreaming of a summer dip, start
your project early in the year.

From initial permits to pool completion, the entire process typically takes around four months. 

So, plan ahead and dive into your plunge pool when the sun is at its peak.

4. Get Multiple Quotes

Never settle for the first option. Collect quotes from multiple companies to compare costs.

Ask questions, clarify details, and request itemised breakdowns to make an informed decision on your DIY plunge pool project.

5. Budget-Friendly Materials

Consider your material choice for budget-friendly plunge pools. 

Vinyl liner pools are cost-effective but need replacing every 6-10 years.

Aim to balance longevity and maintenance.

6. Precast
Concrete Pools

Enjoy the aesthetics of a concrete pool without the long wait and high cost. 

Precast concrete pools save time and also offer the classic appeal of a traditional concrete pool. 

7. DIY Fibreglass Advantage

DIY fibreglass plunge pools offer durability, low maintenance, and the same property value boost as concrete pools.

Families love these pools for their lasting
quality and the joy they bring - creating endless fun and cherished memories.

8. Licensed
Installer or Full DIY

Decide between a licensed installer for a smoother process or full project management for maximum cost savings. 

Choosing an installer ensures expertise, while a DIY approach lets you choose quotes and optimise your budget.

9. Savings with Equipment

Invest in energy-efficient equipment such as pumps and pool covers.

This lowers your expenses and also contributes to a more eco-friendly and sustainable pool.

10. Regular Maintenance

Sticking to a consistent pool maintenance routine is essential. 

Proper cleaning will prevent expensive repairs and extend the lifespan of your pool.
