Question 1

How much does a fibreglass pool cost?

Accepted Answer

Our fully-installed fibreglass pools range from $47,176 to $81,147+ depending on size and features. This includes everything — excavation, crane, premium equipment, council approvals, LED lighting, mineral chlorinator, Pool School training, and lifetime warranties. We publish our prices because we're confident in the value we deliver.

Question 2

What's included in the quoted price?

Accepted Answer

Every MFP pool includes: complete excavation, crane hire, pool shell with Graphene Nano-Tech, filtration system, mineral chlorinator, LED lighting, pool fully plumbed for install, council approval fees, engineering certification, engineered concrete bond beam, Pool School training, and Extended Lifetime Structural Warranty + Lifetime Interior Surface Guarantee. We don't believe in surprise extras.

Question 3

Why are you more expensive than some quotes?

Accepted Answer

Budget quotes often exclude essential items — excavation, crane, council fees, or quality equipment. Our Graphene Nano-Tech construction offers increased flexural and impact strength over standard fibreglass, and we use premium equipment as standard. The $10k difference is less than $1/day over 30 years — and you get extended lifetime warranties, not 5-year coverage.

Question 4

What's NOT included in the price?

Accepted Answer

We're transparent about what's separate: pool fencing (we can recommend suppliers), landscaping around the pool, gas heating upgrades, automatic pool covers, and water features. Site conditions like rock excavation or extreme slopes may also affect pricing — we assess this at the free site visit.

Question 5

Do you offer finance options?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we partner with several finance providers. Pools can be financed from around $150/week with approved credit. We can discuss options during your consultation — many clients find financing makes a quality pool more accessible than expected.

Question 6

When do I pay?

Accepted Answer

We follow a staged payment schedule: deposit on signing (typically 10%), progress payments at key milestones (excavation, shell installation, concrete), and final payment on handover. This is industry standard and protects both parties.

Question 7

What if rock is found during excavation?

Accepted Answer

Rock excavation is priced separately if encountered. During your site visit, we assess the likelihood based on your suburb and visible indicators. If rock is found, we document it and discuss options — you always know costs before we proceed.

Question 8

What makes MFP Easy different from other pool builders?

Accepted Answer

Three things: Graphene Nano-Tech construction (our strongest pool ever, with increased flexural and impact strength), transparent pricing (we publish our prices), and a track record — National Best Fibreglass Pool Builder 2025 (SPASA Gold), QLD Regional Best 2026 (SPASA Gold), 5x QLD Gold Winner (2021, 2023, 2024, 2025, 2026), 250+ pools annually, and 263+ five-star reviews. We're not the cheapest, but we're the best value.

Question 9

What warranties do you offer?

Accepted Answer

Every MFP pool includes: Extended Lifetime Structural Warranty, Lifetime Interior Surface Guarantee, 7-year Workmanship Guarantee, and manufacturer warranties on all equipment (2-10 years depending on component). Our warranties are transferable if you sell your home. Warranty provided by Aqua Technics — terms and conditions apply.

Question 10

What is Graphene Nano-Tech?

Accepted Answer

Graphene is a single layer of carbon atoms — the strongest material known to science. When infused into fibreglass resin, it creates our strongest pool ever, with increased flexural and impact strength. This means superior impact resistance, better UV stability, and prevention of osmotic blistering. Every MFP pool includes this as standard.

Question 11

Are you properly licensed and insured?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. We hold QBCC Licence #15472089, are members of SPASA, and carry $20M public liability insurance. As Brisbane's most awarded pool builder, our credentials are solid.

Question 12

What awards have you won?

Accepted Answer

QLD Regional Best Fibreglass Pool Builder — SPASA Gold 2026. National Best Fibreglass Pool Builder — SPASA Gold 2025. QLD Best Fibreglass Pool Builder — SPASA Gold 2025. QLD Business of the Year — SPASA Gold 2025. QLD Fibreglass Pool of the Year — SPASA Gold 2025. Plus 5x QLD Gold Winner (2021, 2023, 2024, 2025, 2026). We're judged by industry experts, not just self-proclaimed.

Question 13

Can I speak to previous clients?

Accepted Answer

We encourage it. We can provide references from recent clients in your area, and you're welcome to check our 263+ Google reviews. Seeing completed pools in person is even better — ask us about site visits to finished projects.

Question 14

What happens if something goes wrong?

Accepted Answer

We have a dedicated service team for post-installation support. If any issue arises from our workmanship, we fix it — no arguments, no delays. For the first 30 days, we proactively check in to ensure everything is running perfectly.

Question 15

How long does it take from start to swimming?

Accepted Answer

Typically 8-12 weeks from first contact to swimming. This includes design (1-2 weeks), council approvals (2-4 weeks), and construction (4 weeks / 28 days). Weather and council processing times can affect this, but our build phase commitment is firm.

Question 16

What happens at the site consultation?

Accepted Answer

A free 1-2 hour visit where we: measure your backyard, assess access and soil conditions, discuss your vision and lifestyle needs, identify any site challenges, and recommend pool options. You'll leave with a clear understanding of what's possible and ballpark pricing.

Question 17

Do I need to be home during construction?

Accepted Answer

Not necessarily. We coordinate access before the build starts. Many clients continue normal routines while we work. We do need access to water and power, and we'll notify you before key milestones.

Question 18

How do council approvals work?

Accepted Answer

We handle everything. Our team prepares your DA/CDC application, coordinates engineering certification, ensures barrier compliance, and liaises with council. You'll receive copies of all approvals. This typically takes 2-4 weeks depending on your council.

Question 19

What if there are delays?

Accepted Answer

We proactively communicate any changes. Weather is the most common cause — rain impacts excavation and concrete works. If delays occur, we adjust your timeline immediately and keep you informed every step of the way.

Question 20

Can I make changes after we've started?

Accepted Answer

Minor adjustments are usually possible during design. Once construction begins, changes become difficult and may impact timeline and budget. We encourage finalizing all decisions before signing off on your design document.

Question 21

What is Pool School?

Accepted Answer

A 2-hour handover session where we teach you everything about your pool: equipment operation, water chemistry basics, maintenance schedules, and troubleshooting. You'll receive a manual, starter supplies, and our support team's contact details.

Question 22

Why fibreglass instead of concrete?

Accepted Answer

Fibreglass pools are faster to install (4 weeks vs 3-4 months), require less maintenance (smooth surface resists algae), are more energy efficient (better insulation), and have lower lifetime costs. With Graphene Nano-Tech, they're now equally durable. Concrete suits very custom shapes, but fibreglass covers 95% of designs better.

Question 23

What sizes are available?

Accepted Answer

We offer pools from 4m plunge pools to 12m+ lap pools. Our most popular range is 6-9m for family pools. Width, depth, and shape options vary — during your consultation, we'll recommend sizes that suit your backyard and intended use.

Question 24

What colours are available?

Accepted Answer

Our shells come in 12+ colours ranging from classic Pacific Blue to contemporary Grey Granite and White Crystal. Darker colours absorb more heat (good for unheated pools), lighter colours show more clarity. We'll show you samples during design.

Question 25

What equipment is included?

Accepted Answer

Standard inclusions: variable speed pump, media filter, mineral chlorinator, LED lighting, and all valves and fittings. Premium upgrades available: robotic cleaners, heat pumps, solar heating, automatic chemical dosing, and smartphone control systems.

Question 26

How much does a pool cost to run?

Accepted Answer

With our variable speed pumps and mineral chlorinators, expect around $30-50/month in electricity and chemicals for a typical family pool. Heating adds more — solar is cheapest ongoing, heat pumps are most efficient. We'll estimate running costs for your specific setup.

Question 27

What maintenance is required?

Accepted Answer

Weekly: test water and adjust chemicals (5 mins), empty skimmer basket. Monthly: clean filter, check equipment. Annually: professional service recommended. Our Pool School training covers everything — most owners spend 15-20 minutes per week maintaining their pool.

Question 28

Can you build on sloping blocks?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely — it's one of our specialties. We've built on blocks with 3m+ falls. Engineering solutions include suspended beam systems, retaining walls, and split-level pool designs. Slopes add complexity (and cost), but they often result in the most dramatic outcomes.

Question 29

What about tight access sites?

Accepted Answer

We regularly work with access as narrow as 1.25m using mini machinery, and our specialised crane techniques can lift pool shells over houses if needed. Even if a fence, air-conditioner or garden bed is pinching the gap, we can often remove and reinstate it as part of your build. During your site visit, we'll assess access and explain the solution — tight access is challenging but rarely impossible.

Question 30

What is a mineral pool and why is it better?

Accepted Answer

A mineral pool uses magnesium chloride and potassium chloride instead of traditional chlorine - the result is water noticeably gentler on skin, eyes, and hair. Many owners notice the difference from their very first swim. Magnesium can improve circulation and reduce muscle soreness, and the lower chemical load is better for anyone with skin sensitivities or asthma. Our included variable speed pump saves approximately $800 a year in electricity compared to a standard single-speed pump. Every MFP pool includes a mineral chlorinator as standard. No upgrade required, no extra cost. It is simply how we believe every pool should be built.
