Install Above Ground Pools FAQs, answered by experts

The average 12-by-24-foot in-ground pool costs $48,500, but depending on the features and materials, prices can trend even higher. You’ll spend less on a rectangular vinyl or fiberglass pool than on a concrete pool in an elevated style (think infinity pool or lagoon pool). Added features like heating, lighting, diving boards, or decking will increase your overall cost.

The best way to find a reliable pool service company is to look for one that is properly licensed and insured, has positive customer reviews, maintains good ratings with the Better Business Bureau (BBB), and provides pricing that fits into your budget. You can also ask the following questions to see if a pool service company is right for you:

  • Do you provide discounts if I sign up for multiple services or a contract?

  • What services can you provide?

  • How many years of experience do you have?

  • Do you have any customer references I can call?

A qualified pool contractor who is familiar with local regulations can assess your yard and let you know if it’s feasible to install a pool. Whether or not your yard is suitable for a pool depends on a number of factors, including the size of your yard, the placement of utility lines, your yard’s terrain, and more. It’s a good idea to see if it’s even possible to put a pool on your property before you get too far into planning.

There are some companies that offer acid washes that do not require pool draining. However, the process can take several days and requires a bit more elbow grease to scrub the pool surface compared to draining it entirely. Since your pool surface and age are both a factor, work with a professional to choose the best method.

The life expectancy of a stock tank pool depends on the level of maintenance that you put into it, but it typically lasts for 10 years or more with regular maintenance and repairs. Regularly testing the water and adjusting the chemical levels, using a chlorine float instead of tablets that can end up on the floor of the pool, lining the pool, cleaning the stock tank, and managing any rust immediately will help extend the life of the pool.
