Plan on $60,000 minimum for an inground pool.
You’re looking at $55,000 to $70,000 for a basic vinyl liner or fiberglass pool in 2025, and it only goes up from there. Concrete runs $80,000 to $150,000+ because it’s custom and labor-intensive.
Three big cost drivers: material (vinyl is cheapest, concrete most expensive), site access (rocky soil or a backyard that requires crane equipment adds thousands), and extras (heater, lighting, fencing, landscaping). Permits and inspections add another $1,000â$3,000 depending on your city. And don’t forget ongoing costs: chemicals, electricity, winter cover, eventual liner replacement ($5kâ$
