Pool Builders & Contractors

Practical industry support when issues become complex

Running a pool construction or contracting business involves far more than building pools.

Contracts, customers, compliance, standards, subcontractors, defects, WHS and disputes can all create risk and require careful judgement.

NextGen Experts works with pool builders and contractors to understand the issue, establish a clear position and determine a practical way forward.

With extensive experience across pool construction, servicing, standards, regulation and industry practice, NextGen Experts brings a practical understanding of how the industry operates — from pre-contract decisions and documentation through to construction, servicing and issues arising on site.
