Usually the first question we get asked is ‘how much does a pool cost?. We first have to say that a pool will vary in price greatly depending on the size, complexity of construction and amount and quality of features and finishes selected.
The range on what families spend to get a quality pool varies from TT$200,000 to well over TT$500,000. The average spent on a diamondbrite-finished pool in Trinidad is currently around $250,000 to $300,000. This includes design, engineering, basic equipment (pump, filter, lights, skimmers), all plumbing and electrical, and approximately a 3-feet wide concrete apron around the pool.
Our expertise and craftsmanship developed in over 25 years and hundreds of pool builds make us one of the leading and most experienced pool builders in Trinidad. A fair portion of our work is repairing and redoing pools built by other pool builders. We see a lot of pools with leaks and structural flaws due to inadequate engineering or poor build quality. Many sites in Trinidad have high water tables, land fill, and are in areas prone to earthquakes or land movement. We have expertise in all these site conditions being not only a pool builder but also a leading residential construction builder.
Be sure when calculating the cost of any pool that the pool company you’re talking to explains ALL of the costs involved upfront. This may mean asking them about things that are not on their quote. That way you’ll know what has been quoted and what may also arise during construction.
At QBL, apart from an initial deposit, you only need to pay for work once each stage is completed. This is explained when we provide a detailed quotation and at the contract stage in plain English.
