Can someone explain to me what it the detail process of having a pool before build? This is our first time building a house and a pool so we need some clarification and explanation. Bit of a background story: We are building a house with a pool at the back and planning to put the pool before the house build due to side access. The rough location of the pool has been located on the house plan. So now, we have already signed a contract with both the pool and house build company. The house plan are just submitted to the council for approval. This may take up to 4 - 6 weeks apparently. So I’ve enquired with the pool sales rep regarding the process after this but his attitude has changed since we signed the contract and is terrible. The pool sales rep has said that the pool application will be separate from the house application. Will the builder contact the pool company themselves? The builder already have the pool details. Will the pool company usually submit the pool plan to council after the house application is approved by council? So then js jt another long wait after we get council approval for the house? Do we get notified of this? Do I just wait now until I’m contacted again by the pool company? The pool company said there is nothing I can do now until I know the site supervisor, where I will be asked to locate the pool at it exact location. So is pool council application another long wait after the build application is approved by the council? We just want to make sure everything is on time as we don’t want any unnecessary delays.
