Pool by Price
How Much Does a New Pool Cost?
At Modern Builder, we believe that no two pools are the same—each project is as unique as the homeowner’s vision. Unlike other contractors, we don’t offer one-size-fits-all pricing because every swimming pool comes with its own requirements, design choices, and finishes.
- Transparent Pricing for Every Project
- We offer a wide range of pool options, each with its own price point, so you can find a solution that fits your budget and preferences.
- Before starting your project, we provide a detailed explanation of costs, helping you understand the differences between various pool designs and finishes.
- Our team will guide you through selecting the package that best suits your needs, ensuring you know exactly what you’re paying for.
From the initial consultation to the final touches, Modern Builder is committed to clarity, quality, and your satisfaction. Let us help you create the pool of your dreams—designed just for you, at a price that makes sense.
