Vinyl vs Fiberglass vs Concrete Pool
Both materials create beautiful spaces; the difference is how they age and how much care they need.
- Vinyl liner pools cost less upfront and feel smooth, but you'll need to replace the liner every 7 to 10 years. It's a recurring expense most people don't think about.
- Fiberglass pools show up as one piece, so installation goes quickly. The surface fights off algae well. The problem is, you're picking from whatever shapes the factory makes.
- Gunite pools let you build whatever you're imagining. Custom shapes, unique features, anything. The material is durable and versatile, so you get a pool that fits your yard perfectly. You choose the finish, pebble, tile, plaster, and it lasts for decades with proper care.
What Affects the Cost
Pool building in North Texas usually runs between $79k and $145k. Size makes the biggest impact on price. Larger pools need more materials, equipment, and time.
Your design choices matter too. A simple rectangular pool costs less than a freeform design with custom curves. Adding features like waterfalls, tanning ledges, raised spas, or mosaic tiles increases the total. A basic filtration system runs cheaper than full automation with app control.

Frequently Asked Questions
Most backyard swimming pool construction in Texas vary in cost based on size, features, and design choices.
Simpler pool designs with standard finishes typically fall on the lower end, while pools with added features like spas, water elements, and upgraded hardscape require a higher investment.
This calculator helps you estimate a realistic starting range so you can plan your project with confidence.
While pool size and material matter, surrounding hardscape and added features often have the largest impact on total cost.
Pool surrounds, spas, tanning ledges, water features, and automation systems frequently account for a significant portion of the overall project budget.
In some cases, yes, but it’s uncommon for a fully installed backyard pool today. Many 50k pool quotes are tied to smaller or simpler designs, older pricing, or projects with limited features.
Once excavation, pool surround, equipment, permits, and basic finishes are included, most residential pool projects exceed that range.
Yes. The pool surround is a major part of the overall project and is typically planned alongside the pool itself.
Basic concrete surrounds are more budget-friendly, while paver or premium hardscape options increase the total cost. Because it affects both usability and appearance, the pool surround is an important factor in the final budget.
Yes. Pool costs can often be managed by simplifying the pool shape, choosing standard finishes, limiting custom features, and selecting a basic pool surround.
Prioritizing the features that matter most allows you to balance budget and long-term enjoyment without compromising build quality.
It’s accurate as a starting point. This pool cost calculator provides a realistic estimate based on common design choices and typical project conditions in Texas.
However, it cannot account for every variable such as site access, soil conditions, permitting, or custom engineering. A detailed design and site evaluation are needed for a final quote.
