Pool Deck Installation Cost
If you already have a pool on your property, you may want to upgrade it by building a
pool deck.
Pool deck is a section which has a decorative function and also acts as a border
between the pool and the surface. Usually it builds around the pool and oftenly with a
fence on it. Beside the decorative function it also adds safety around your pool as it
provides a non-skid element.
Building and installing a pool deck will need a number of costs which you must prepare.
Thus include the choice of materials you want to use, the size of your pool is also one
thing you must know first because it will affect the size and shape of your pool deck
later in the making, equipment needed, and the last but not least is labor costs.
In-Ground or Above Ground Pool?
The type of your pool is really an important factor when it comes to an idea of installing
a pool deck.
Pool deck is one necessity when you have an in-ground pool. As for the above ground
pool, installing a pool deck is only optional.
As you may already know, the installation of above ground pools is usually cheaper
than an in-ground pool. So does the installation cost because the above ground pool
often uses limited materials such as wood, plastic or composite.
Above Ground Pool Deck Installation CostThe average cost to install a pool deck for above ground pool is $5000 in the US. It
comes from a range between $300 – $3000. But you must remember that this cost is for
the deck only. If you build the above ground pool from scratch, the pool itself costs $700
– $3700.
You can minimize these costs if you buy above ground pools kit which already includes
a patio in it. So it is more efficient if you install a pool deck simultaneously with the pool
installation.
When you already made a decision about installing a pool deck for your above ground
pool, you must consider the style of it.
For a splash pool deck which is made from wood with a patio around your pool it will
cost you $1000 – $2000. A side singular landing deck made from wood or plastic has
the average cost from $300 – $2000.
You can also combine those two by installing a splash and side landing deck made from
wood or composite with an average cost between $1500-$3000.
In general, the total cost to install a pool deck for the above ground pool is quite similar
like when you build a patio in any section of your property which costs around $4000 –
$10000.

ground pool deck. There are a lot more materials you can choose.
