Gordon Ave Pools installed our pool in February 2021. Which was exactly when they planned to install it from when we order it months before. The process was very professional and at a high standard even though it was a pretty in-depth build. The price was competitive and the… Read full review

Well we waited over twelve months for our new pool, but the wait was worth it. Very professional company and fantastic contractors and staff who built the pool. I cannot recommend Gordon avenue highly enough. So many bad stories about pool building but we had an unbelievable easy experience.

Fibreglass pools in Lara: your questions answered

Who is the best pool builder in Lara?

Gordon Ave Pools & Spas is a trusted local pool builder serving Lara and the wider Greater Geelong. We’ve been part of Geelong for over 40 years, hold a 4.7-star Google rating, and are SPASA Gold & National Award winners — so you’re in experienced local hands.

How much does a pool cost in Lara?

Most fibreglass pool projects in Lara fall between roughly $45,000 and $85,000+ installed, depending on the pool size, site access and extras like fencing, paving and self-cleaning. As your local pool builder we provide a free, fixed on-site quote so you know exactly what your Lara project will cost.

Are fibreglass pools better than concrete pools?

For most homes, yes. Fibreglass pools are installed far faster than concrete (days rather than months), cost less over their lifetime, have a smooth non-porous surface that resists algae, and use fewer chemicals. Concrete pools take longer to build and generally cost more to run and maintain.

How much cheaper is a fibreglass pool than concrete in Lara?

A fibreglass pool in Lara is typically 20–40% cheaper than an equivalent concrete pool once you factor in the faster install, lower running costs and reduced maintenance. The exact saving depends on your site — we’ll show you the numbers at your free quote.

Do you install fibreglass pools across Lara?

Yes — we design, deliver and install Compass fibreglass pools throughout Lara and the whole Greater Geelong area. We’re a local Geelong family business, just 15km from our Geelong West showroom.

How long does it take to build a pool in Lara?

Once your Lara site is ready, a fibreglass shell can often be craned in and the pool swimmable within days. The full project — excavation, fencing, paving and landscaping — usually takes a few weeks, compared with several months for a concrete pool.

Which pool suits a Lara backyard?

It depends on your block and how you’ll use the pool. As your local pool builder we’ll visit your Lara property, look at access and layout, and recommend the right Compass shape — from compact plunge pools to family and lap pools.

Do Compass pools come with a warranty?

Yes. Compass pools carry a triple warranty — structural, cosmetic and hydrostatic. Bi-Luminite colours include a lifetime structural warranty; Vivid colours a 25-year structural warranty. All are backed by Compass Pools Australia.
