How much does it cost to put in a pool?

We’d like to install a standard size in-ground pool, and are trying to estimate cost. A basic rectangular pool, with a hot tub in one corner is all we’re looking for. How much should we expect to spend? What factors will impact cost?

We have worked with several homeowners at the time of their pool construction. Our most recent homeowner built a 10 ft x 27 ft basic pool with no hot tub, pebble tech, power returns instead of pop ups, basic baja shelf, and no heater for approximately $21,000. Hope this helps somewhat.

For the purpose of this discussion, we will look at the costs associated with the installation of both kinds of modern swimming pools. According to P.K. Data the average cost of a 19’ diameter above ground swimming pool is $6,243; while the average cost of a 32’x16’ inground swimming pool is $21,919.
