POOL EXCAVATION
BASIC PROCESS OF A FULL POOL EXCAVATION AND INSTALLATION
These days, it’s essential to take some time off to relax to keep up with the hectic pace of modern life. Leisure activities must come to you rather than chasing after them because of rising work hours and fewer personal days! In this case, one of the finest ways to relax is in the comfort of your garden. All you have to do is construct a swimming pool to do this. Inspect the builder’s inclusions and the quality of their work if you’re considering contracting a pool. The tools, trades, and materials contribute equally to the property’s delightful living features. The goal is to construct a swimming pool that is both functional and aesthetically pleasing that has been fashioned to fit your property, lifestyle, and budget. So, how do you start the swimming pool building process? Let Kruzer Earthmoving lay it out for you:
- Inspection of the pool site
- Drawing up the swimming pool design and finalising it
- Begin Pool Excavation
- Pre-Plumbing and Setting steel fixings

HOW LONG DOES POOL INSTALLATION TAKE
Kruzer Earthmoving commits to a comprehensive process to achieve outstanding on-time completion rates. To accurately predict completion timelines, any builder should consider the customary disruption caused by weather, the usual approval timeframes for councils, and work done after the building phase has been completed. So, if you include finishing touches, installing a permanent pool fence, and landscaping, you should budget 16 to 20 weeks for the entire process. Kruzer Earthmoving has been digging swimming pools for years and has developed a system that results in a streamlined and efficient workflow. Leave the hard work to Kruzer Earthmoving, and you won’t be disappointed!
THE BEST TIME FOR POOL EXCAVATION
Finally, you have decided to install a pool in your backyard. Picking a pool’s size, shape, and location is the first step; the next is choosing a time for installation. Regardless of the weather, Kruzer Excavation excavates pools year-round. However, you might wish to take into account any seasonal installation adjustments. Is construction in the fall and winter more advantageous? Spring and summer come to mind. Each season has a long list of benefits and drawbacks that should be carefully considered.
- Spring – Spring is a great time to install a pool for summer use but be ready to pay a little extra because swimming pool excavators are very busy this season!
- Fall – The fall months offer reliable weather for pool digging. Dryer ground speeds up and simplifies installation, but it may take a while before you can use your pool because of the time gap between fall and summer.
- Winter – Winter is a slow period for earthmoving companies, so construction, materials, and labour may be cheaper. In addition, most pool excavators are active in the spring and summer, making the winter months the best time to hire one.

THINGS YOU NEED TO CONSIDER WHEN BUILDING AN INGROUND POOL
In-ground pool construction involves careful planning and execution to produce the ideal design and ensure your property’s safety. The pool installation requires the proper earthmoving equipment, attachments, funding, and staff, basically everything that Kruzer Earthmoving has! Before building, consider your options and responsibilities to ensure a smooth process. If you’re finally ready to take the plunge and build an in-ground pool, there are a few things to remember to ensure you select the best pool for your Victorian home and family.
Pool Types
Swimming pools come in three styles: fibreglass, vinyl-lined, and concrete.
- Concrete Pools – Pools made of concrete serve as the foundation for many other common pool finishes, such as tile or stone. Deciding to cover your pool with tile or stone is entirely aesthetic and won’t do anything to extend the life of your pool. These finishes typically last 8 to 12 years and can be challenging to repair or replace; even minor chips or missing titles require emptying the pool and a professional fix.
- Vinyl-lined Pools – A specially produced vinyl sheet separates the water from the pool construction in a vinyl liner pool. Typically, vinyl liners lock their top edge, or bead, onto a track at deck level on the bottom of the coping. A floor made of sand or cement sized to match the liner’s intended “cut” rests on top of the liner. The walls and floors come together at the top, and all wall panels are fastened to form the swimming pool’s perimeter. Installing a vinyl liner pool typically costs between $35,000 and $65,000. Their greatest selling point is that it allows many households to have an inground pool, even if they couldn’t afford one otherwise.
- Fibreglass Pools – A fibreglass pool is the most straightforward and affordable type of inground pool. Because the fibreglass pool shell is prefabricated before installation, they are the simplest to build. Pools made of fibreglass are available in practically any size and design. They are single-piece, moulded pools that are put in your yard. These pools may be installed in about two days, from start to end. In addition to being extremely low-maintenance, it is constructed from a nonporous substance called Gelcoat, which prevents algae growth.
Zoning Restrictions
Before starting any construction, you must apply for a building permit and gain clearance since in-ground swimming pools are subject to zoning and building rules. You must generally adhere to setback lengths from the pool to property lines, septic tanks, wells, sewer lines, and wetlands. Building and zoning regulations vary from town to town. There are also rules about pool fences and the hardware on gates. But, there is no need to worry because, before a Victoria pool excavation, Kruzer Earthmoving will ensure all the legalities are in place!
Pool Size and Location
Pools come in various sizes and designs, including oval, kidney, roman, and free-form. Consider the area needed if you want to add a pool to your home. Victoria Homeowners should also consider this while deciding where to put the pool. You must evaluate the climate, the sun’s rays, the wind, any overhead electrical lines, and the ease of entry to and from your home.

POOL EXCAVATION FAQ
A standard pool excavation should be dug by a skilled excavation contractor using the right tools in around 10 hours. A larger-than-average pool or a pool in an area with rocky soil may require two days to dig a hole. Ask your pool excavators for an estimate or time frame for completing a pool excavation.
Although it may seem easy, you can't simply dig a hole using a shovel! You need several tools and specialised materials to build a pool that won't leak. This implies that you will need to purchase all necessary equipment and supplies. Even hiring an excavator to excavate the hole for you will be necessary.
Simply multiply the hole's size by the number of cubic yards of soil to get how much dirt will be removed from the hole. The ratio is commonly calculated as 1.35 tonnes of dirt per cubic yard, which is equal to 3'x 3'x 3'.
You don't need to go any farther if you've ever wondered what size of excavator is required for excavating pools, basements, and other things! Mini excavators would be perfect to complete activities like excavating swimming pools, basements, and other residential applications.
Generally speaking, your pool should take between 25 and 35 per cent of the available space, or 45 per cent if you're really into it. A yard of roughly 150 square metres is required for a small or medium-sized pool (20–30 square metres). The type of pool is another issue to take into account.
According to national guidelines, all swimming pools must be at least 10 feet from the home walls. Generally, the pool and its surroundings should take up around 25% of the outdoor space. This will give the youngsters room to build a play area or entertainment area. The extra room may be used to set up a shed, a clothesline, or a vegetable garden.
