Inground
The cost of an inground pool can range from $25,000 to $50,000. When constructing a custom pool, Aquatic Excellence LLC will excavate and sometimes even grade your landscape, then construct within that pit. Afterwards, you’ll also require the construction of decking or a patio.
While inground pool costs can seem hefty, there’s a good reason. On top of the construction that’s necessary, the results you get will be beautiful, pristine, and even add some value to your home.
An inground pool is a permanent landscaping feature, whereas an aboveground pool can’t help but look temporary, even when you construct a surround for it.
Aboveground
The average aboveground swimming pool kit will cost between $1,500 and $4,500 depending on quality. Adding labor and possible ground leveling you could be looking at another $500-$1,000. Still, miles more affordable than even the smallest inground pool.
Aboveground pools are also considered to be safer due to their height. Many Dallas homeowners take this into consideration if they have small children and/or pets.
There are a lot of great reasons to construct an aboveground pool, but take into consideration the temporary appearance, and fact that it won’t raise the value of your home. Aboveground and inground pools require the same maintenance, but in the long-run an inground pool is more of an investment.
If you’re looking for residential pool builders, we’d recommend an inground pool every time. A more permanent installation is more beneficial to your business whether it be a community center, school, or office facility.
