Instant estimate
Start from a standard 24′×10′ rectangle and change what you like — size, finish, tile, coping, spa, sun shelf. The drawing and the estimate update as you go. No sales call needed to get a number.
This is an estimate, not a contract price. Final cost can go above this range depending on site access, soil and rock conditions, water table, grading and retaining needs, custom shapes, permit requirements, and options not shown here. A site visit sets the firm number.
Live cost build for the current configuration. This panel is for James and Poolside only, so the margin can be sanity-checked against real jobs.
Cost figures are placeholder except deck, spa and electrical overage, which come from a real competitor quote. Replace with Poolside actual costs when available.
Pick a common size or enter your own. Larger pools cost more per job but slightly less per square foot.
Shape
The pebble colour you choose is not the colour the water looks. The swatch shows the pebble; the drawing shows the water you actually get.
Add or remove and watch the drawing and price change.
Square is the standard attached spa. Round is available and costs more — curved shell forming and far more tile cuts.
On an L-shape the spa tucks into the notched corner, which keeps the entry steps clear. The notch is sized around the spa, so a bigger spa means a slightly smaller pool.
Straight treads are standard. Curved steps — a Roman end or radius — cost more: the shell has to be formed to a curve and every tile has to be cut to follow it.
Access and ground conditions move the price more than most options. Honest input here gives a closer number.
The designer covers rectangles, freeform and L-shapes with standard options. If you want a true custom design — vanishing edge, multi-level, integrated outdoor kitchen, difficult site, or anything drawn from scratch — that is a design engagement, not a configuration.
Credited in full against your pool contract if you build with Poolside. Non-refundable if you do not.
The fee pays for real design work and buys you a firm number. It comes off the build cost when you sign — so if you build with us, it costs you nothing extra.
Noted — your request below is flagged as a custom design enquiry.
Your full configuration is attached automatically, so nothing has to be re-explained on the phone.
