About Us
About Us
Why Poolpal Exists
Auckland homeowners kept telling us the same thing, building a pool feels confusing, inconsistent, and risky. We created Poolpal to make the entire process clear, independent, and trustworthy.
What Homeowners Told Us
“Every builder says something different.” “I don’t know what’s good quality vs average.” “I just want a straight answer.”
What We Discovered
Pricing, quality, and process vary massively across builders. Choosing the wrong option can cost $10,000+ and weeks of stress.
What Didn’t Exist
No independent service that compares builders, explains pool types, and helps homeowners understand what’s actually right for their property.
