How much do inground pools cost in the Louisville area?
Inground pools in the Louisville area usually start around $60,000 and can reach upward of $200,000, with an average price range for a fiberglass pool typically being between $70,000 and $90,000.
Some of the factors that affect the price of an inground swimming pool in and around Louisville are:
1. The pool type (fiberglass, gunite, or vinyl)
Gunite pools are typically the most expensive type to install and own in the Louisville area.
Vinyl liner pools are the least expensive to install initially, but the need for liner replacements over time makes them more costly in the long run.
Fiberglass pools have the advantage of a lower initial price than gunite and a lower lifetime cost of ownership than both other pool types.
This is due to the unmatched durability of fiberglass pools.
With a lifetime warranty on the structure of the pool and an amazing low-maintenance gelcoat finish, a fiberglass pool shell will typically not require any repair or refinishing work for decades.
2. Access to the backyard
Pool installation requires moving a tremendous amount of construction materials (dirt, stone, concrete, the pool shell, etc.) in and out of your backyard. Because of this, the accessibility of trucks and other equipment to the site plays a factor in the price of your pool.
This can impact the pool installation costs by as much as $5,000 or $10,000 in extreme cases.
3. The scope of the project
River Pools Louisville specializes in designing and building pool projects of all sizes, but it all begins with an amazing pool and patio.
According to your budget and needs, the final design often integrates elements such as gazebos, pergolas, pool houses, hot tubs, custom retaining walls, etc.
As the scope of the project grows, so does the budget.
At River Pools Louisville, we are experts at helping you develop a long-term vision for your backyard and creating a plan to get you there, whether implemented all at once or phased in over time.
