Yes, it's possible to make an aboveground zero-edge pool. Note that it's most common to build an inground one, but, if you raise the deck and surrounding poolscape, you can install an aboveground version. Keep in mind, if you need to haul in dirt, it can significantly raise your land prep costs.

There are pros and cons of in-ground vs. above-ground pools, which you should consider when choosing the pool of your summertime dreams. Some factors to think about include: 

• Above-ground pools are semi-permanent and movable, whereas in-ground pools are permanent structures.

• In-ground pools are more expensive to install than above-ground pools. 

• It takes one to three days to install above-ground pools and several weeks for an in-ground pool install.

• You can install an above-ground pool in smaller yards, but you need plenty of space for an in-ground pool.

Building an inground pool is a job best left to the pros. Excavating the area and building the pool requires heavy equipment and specialized training, and pools have complex plumbing and electrical systems. Unless you’re experienced in these areas, you’re better off hiring a pool contractor to make sure the job gets done safely and correctly.
