We are considering Adbri. In hindsight are you glad you used brick vs concrete pour, more cost effective? Re: Owner Builder Pool 15Jun 11, 2020 11:55 am Thanks. We used Midland Brick for the fence and just ordinary bricks for the pool itself. Our bricklayer had done pools before so it was more a case of being confident with the person building it and the procedure. We still used over $40k woth of concrete so I wasn't really a cost effectiveness plan for us. <!-- l --><a class="postlink-local" href="https://forum.homeone.com.au/viewtopic.php?t=62083">viewtopic.php?t=62083</a><!-- l --> In NSW, an owner builder is one whom has obtained an owner builder certificate a builds a house.
