Captain the Project or Crew In a Pro?
We supply fibreglass pool kits built for the Great Lakes region—from the canal-front homes of Forster Keys to the family streets of Tuncurry and the bushland estates of Hallidays Point.
Your call:
- Coordinate it yourself - manage the trades and keep up to $40,000
- Kit + licensed installer - we pair you with a certified pro, you still save up to $20,000
Both routes cut out the retail markup. Same quality pool. More left for the outdoor entertaining.
Designed for Great Lakes Living
Lakeside humidity. Extreme UV. Summer rain. Built to handle it.
Summers here average 26°C, with mild winters that rarely dip below 18°C. That's five to seven months of comfortable swimming—November through April—and close to year-round with a heat pump.
But extreme UV (hitting 14 in summer) and a wet season from February to April demand the right materials:
- UV-hardened gelcoat rated for Forster's extreme summer UV index
- Wet-season drainage engineered for the 150mm+ rainfall months of late summer
- Humidity-resistant surfaces that won't degrade in coastal lakeside conditions
Real Family. Real Backyard. Real Savings.

Your Questions, Answered
How long does council approval take?
Most Forster properties qualify for a Complying Development Certificate (CDC)—typically 7–20 working days through a private certifier. MidCoast Council ranks among the fastest regional councils for DAs too (45–88 days average). Grab a Section 10.7 Planning Certificate first to confirm your eligibility, especially for waterfront or coastal hazard zones.
When's the best time to install?
May to November, with August to October being ideal. This window avoids the wettest months (February–April can see 150mm+) and gives you stable ground conditions. A spring install means you're swimming by summer.
Can I legally install it myself?
Yes. In NSW, an owner-builder permit is required when coordinating two or more contractors on work over $10,000. We provide step-by-step guides and phone support throughout your project.
