With summer quickly approaching, it is once again time to contemplate how to keep the family entertained, while maximizing your time outdoors in the heat of day. If you’ve kicked around the idea of building a pool but the cost has deterred you, you might want to consider installing an above-ground pool in your yard.

The above-ground pool is not only an inexpensive alternative to a built-in or in-ground pool, but in most cases, it can be set up, filled and ready to enjoy in just a couple of days, making it the perfect choice for some families.

Above-ground pools come in all shapes and sizes and depending on your family’s needs. They can cost anywhere from just under a thousand dollars for a small, standard pool to a few thousand dollars for a large, deluxe pool. In most cases, the price of the pool includes everything you need, including the pump, filter and liner.

Unlike in-ground pools, you have the option of either hiring someone to set your pool up for you, or, if you have a couple of friends or family members to help, you can easily set the pool up yourself. Complete instructions and, in most cases, a free how-to video are included with your pool package. All you need is some level land, a load of sand, and a couple of people willing to spend a few hours laying out and erecting the pool from the ground up.

Today’s pool manufacturers offer a wider variety of styles and color schemes to choose from than in years past. While some homeowners may opt for the traditional blue color scheme, there are many others on the market, such as earth tones and wood-grain.

Above-ground pools are sturdy and can be partially sunken into the ground to give it a more in-ground look. In addition, a deck constructed around the outer edge of the pool can give the appearance of a fully submerged pool. While this option requires a bit more work, including some excavation, if you have the manpower and the capability, it can be accomplished and the end result is a beautiful addition to your back yard.
