Pools in a Sloped Backyard?
Difficult backyard terrain calls for innovative solutions
A sloped backyard limits functional outdoor space for most homeowners. Often it takes major excavation and leveling to transform a sloped area, which is particularly challenging for homeowners on a budget.
For the last thirty years, the Team at Endless Pools has been speaking with homeowners with challenging worksites, and we've successfully navigated the most difficult of locations. If you’ve always wanted a pool on a non-level landscape, an Endless Pools representative can help problem-solve for your unique situation.
In the meantime, here are some ideas to consider for your backyard pool project:
Landscaping
If your backyard doesn't seem to be the right fit for a pool, there are lots of ways to adapt it! Even if you don’t want to excavate —which you can definitely do— there are solutions.
You could choose to build a pool deck with stairs to connect two different levels of your backyard.
You could even build a pool deck above your backyard! Then it doesn’t matter whether the ground is uneven or not, and you can have stairs from your backyard to reach it.
Consider turning a sloped backyard into a backyard with two distinct levels and just have the pool on one of those.
Another option is to add to the lower end of the slope to level everything out if the slope is less severe.
You can choose to prepare your sloped backyard yourself. But like the assembly of the pool, you can hire help. There are plenty of landscaping services available, and many pool companies offer their own landscaping capabilities.
Pool Options
Just as you can modify your backyard to suit your pool, you can also modify your pool in a sloped backyard so that it fits!
At Endless Pools, you have the option to build your pools above-ground, partially in-ground, or fully in-ground.
You could also go with some combination of the two, building your pool into the slope so it is in-ground on one side and above-ground on another.
With our modular design, you could even choose to build a pool indoors if you’re struggling to find room in your outdoor space.
If you’re in doubt about whether a pool in your sloped backyard will work, consult experts on the subject. The Endless Pools team has decades of experience creating pools in a range of locations, including in sloped backyards.
