    About Ossher Design and Build

    Pool and outdoor living builders.

    Most of the cost in an Eastern Suburbs pool isn't the pool. It's the excavation, the rock, the retaining and the engineering required to put a large body of water on a sloping block near a boundary.

    We deliver concrete pools as part of a broader outdoor program: pool, terrace, retaining, landscaping, fencing and the connection back into the house, so it reads as one project rather than three trades arguing over levels.

    Our Bronte project is a good example of what a properly integrated pool and outdoor space looks like on a steep coastal site.

    Rock excavation, shoring, boundary setbacks, drainage and BCA-compliant fencing are all resolved and priced before we start, not discovered at the dig.

    Local Knowledge

    Building a pool in the Eastern Suburbs.

    Three site realities drive the cost and program of almost every pool here.

    Rock & Excavation

    Much of the Eastern Suburbs sits on sandstone. Rock is slow, noisy and expensive to remove, and it's the single largest cost variable on a pool.

    Engineering & Retaining

    On a sloping block the pool shell often doubles as a retaining structure. That needs engineering, drainage and waterproofing designed together.

    Access & Compliance

    Crane or pump access on narrow streets, plus compliant fencing, barriers and resuscitation signage certified at completion.

    FAQs

    Frequently asked questions.

    Concrete pools here typically start around $120,000 and rise quickly with rock excavation, retaining, elevated structures and surrounding terraces. Site conditions matter more than pool size.

    Many pools can proceed via CDC if they meet setback and site coverage standards. Heritage properties, steep sites and pools close to boundaries typically require a DA.

    Three to five months for the pool itself, longer where excavation is difficult or where the pool forms part of a larger renovation program.

    Yes. We prefer to deliver the pool, terrace, retaining and landscaping together so levels, drainage and finishes are resolved as one design.

    Yes. We hold a current NSW contractor licence and carry full public liability and home warranty insurance on every project.

    Founder Adam Ossher runs every project personally, from feasibility through to handover. You deal with the person accountable for the build, not a rotating site manager.
