What is the cost of an in-ground pool?

The cost of an in-ground pool will vary based the size and type of pool, the location where the pool will be installed and any additional features, addon's etc.

Some people say that the ‘type of pool” is the most important factor to consider when looking at the cost of an in-ground pool. The type of pool (concrete, vinyl or fiberglass) is important for other factors such as what you like, your location, etc. But if you want to figure out how much does it cost to put in a pool, this is not necessarily the case. Vinyl, fiberglass or concrete pools can be around the same price for similar pools. You should choose pool type based on what you like and what is available as much as by price point.

Pool installation price can really impact the cost of an in-ground pool. You will need to have a site survey to determine how hard is it to dig in your backyard and the accessibility of your backyard. Some of the items that can really impact price are 91) if the location is level (2) how rocky the dig will be (3) how accessible the area is for equipment and workers. (4) How much labor costs in your area.

The other big factor in the cost of in ground pool is the style of pool, as you might imagine the larger the pool, the more features the more expensive.

When considering the cost of your in-ground pool the first thing that you want to think about is the pool size and shape. Generally speaking the bigger the pool and the more exotic the shape the more expensive the pool. Simple, small shapes are generally the least expensive. Also having a deep end will really not impact the price as much.

The other big factor is features. Features can include add on spas. hot tubs, slides etc, as well as finishes like pebble tec, pool tiles etc. Features can also include high end equipment like automatic pool covers, automatic pool cleaners and salt water filtration systems.

When you are getting an estimate for the cost of an in-ground pool make sure that you get at least 3 estimates and also ask for prices based on different combinations of size, shape and features.
