Pool Shapes & Sizes

The Size of your pool will depend on the amount of space you are willing to allocate and how many people you anticipate will use your pool at any given time. The most common pool size is a 24 ft. pool. Some of the smallest pools range anywhere from 15 to 18 ft. in diameter, which is ideal for families with a single child. Our larger pools range upwards of 33 ft. round and 21 x 43 ft. oval, with depths spanning 48 to 54 in.

When considering the size of your pool, you also need to think about providing enough space for friends, neighbors, and others outside of your immediate family. Keep in mind that any floaties or pool games and accessories take up additional space as well, so adding a couple more feet in diameter might be the ideal solution for you.

All things considered, we typically recommend opting for the biggest pool your backyard will allow. This is the usually the best option for homeowners in the long run.

Next, consider the shape of your pool. Shapes of semi-inground and above ground pools are limited to two styles:

1. Oval pools maximize available yard space, provide room for laps and other water sports, and make it easier to build a deck.
2. Round pools are easier to install and offer more pool for the price.

FIBERGLASS SWIMMING POOLS

The main advantage of a fiberglass swimming pool is the product is ready-made, delivered, and installed quickly in most cases. Unfortunately, fiberglass pools are limited in shape and size. These pools get transported on a truck, which only allows for them to be up to about 16′ wide and 40′ long. Most are not very deep compared to vinyl or concrete. More options come out all the time for fiberglass, like new finishes, tiles, etc. however, the overall max size remains reasonably the same.
