If you’re after one of the best backyard upgrades, a pool fits the bill.

There are several above-ground pool circumferences to choose from.

The most popular shapes are circles and ovals and range between 15 to 30 feet.

There are a fewtypes of materialsthey can be constructed of and costs vary based on this and the size.

They take more planning and a lengthier installation processthis isn’t a place-and-go job.

“An 18,000-gallon pool-spa combo ranging from 3 to 7 feet is very commonly seen,” Lobe notes.

There’s much room for customization and the lengths and widths can be adjusted to what you’re envisioning.

In-ground pools also offer more creativity in terms of design.

Colorful and unique tile configurations, curving steps, waterfalls, and painted bottoms are just a few possibilities.

They’re built for commercial races, says Lobes, so are typically 82 feet long.

Depth-wise, four feet is the minimum required so swimmers can safely and properly do underwater turns.

Diving requires six feet of depth minimum.

They’re big pools and aren’t a necessity if you’re not training or competing frequently.

In many cases, bigger in-ground pools are perfect for casual swimming.

Rather than a gradual downgrade, they tend to have one consistent depth ranging between 4 and 8 feet.

Plunge pools are normally less expensive, too, and vary in size, usually 8 to 12 feet.

“These can be as large as an Olympic-sized pool and stretch across a large piece of land.”

Depths will vary depending on the specific design you choose.

As Lobe points out, in-ground, plunge, and above-ground pools are the most popular.

If an interesting swimmable addition is most importantregardless of maintenancea natural pool can be an out-of-the-box choice.

All in all, a pool is a great investment for your property that provides endless fun.
