Bury In Ground Pool

Semi inground pools most of our semi inground pools can be installed up to halfway into the ground while our intrepid model can be installed up to 36 into the ground.

Bury in ground pool.

The area commonly found between the house and the pool. Above ground pool buried in the ground there are a few brands of above ground pools that can be complete recessed like an inground pool. The average cost of an above ground pool with deck installed is 2 500 to 11 200 depending upon the size and height of the pool. These semi inground pools are perfect for yards which slope because the pool can be installed partially in the ground and partially out or entirely in the ground and can be decked with redwood or pressure treated wood and complimented with either a concrete deck or pavers.

The photo above and the gallery below tell the story. Most people place a small patio or deck on the side of the swimming pool where the ground is highest. It may lead to structural damages that can cause leaks and wreak havoc in your back garden. The cost to build a deck around an above ground pool is 15 to 30 per square foot depending upon the design and materials used.

The short answer is that yes they can. Although it is possible to install a fully recessed or semi in ground pool with a deep end you ll generally not be able to reach depths an in ground pool can reach simply due to liner constraints. Traditional above ground pools that have one individual pool wall that more or less is a thin sheet of metal is not designed to withstand the force of the ground against the pool wall. If the soil conditions are right the pool can actually begin to float up out of the ground which can cause soil erosion or even foundation problems for a nearby house.

A downside to burying an above ground pool as opposed to installing an in ground pool is you ll have less flexibility with depth. The deck alone can range from 2 800 to more than 10 000 installed or buy a small deck system kit. Burying a pool partially or fully in ground will mean that the structure is surrounded by soil and other materials. A deep end is not out of the realm of possibility but standard liners can t stretch infinitely.

Once the pool is empty it may become buoyant while sitting in the ground. There is quite a big price difference between above ground and in ground pools. In ground pools can be exponentially more expensive than above ground pools. Filling an in ground swimming pool can lead to all sorts of unexpected problems.

And for this reason many people ask can above ground pools be partially buried in hopes of receiving the best of both worlds. One of the many benefits of owning a semi inground pool is the more appealing low profile look compared to a pool being installed completely above ground.
