Important Things to Think About
When Building a Swimming Pool in a Small Backyard
Do you have a specific pool shape in mind?
If you have a small backyard, it’s crucial to consider the shape of your pool due to space constraints. A rectangular pool is typically the simplest solution, as it can fit into most small backyards. However, if your backyard has a unique layout, an L-shaped pool that wraps around the space can maximize its use. It’s important to think about your preferred shapes before consulting with a designer.
Do you want a spa?
Having a spa attached to your pool can be a great addition for relaxation and hydrotherapy. However, it’s important to keep in mind that adding a spa will decrease the available space for swimming. If you have a small backyard, you may need to compromise on the size of your pool or consider an alternative solution such as a separate hot tub or spa feature.
Are you thinking about landscpaing?
Landscaping can significantly enhance the overall aesthetic of your pool and backyard area. However, it’s crucial to consider the available space for landscaping, particularly in relation to the swimming pool and decking. The shape and size of the pool can help organize your yard and inspire ideas for features like border plants or expansive lawn areas. Don’t forget to consult with our designers about landscaping—we can assist with that too!
Have you thought about decking?
The decking or area surrounding your pool (aka hardscpaes) is a crucial design element. For smaller backyards, it’s important to balance the amount of decking needed for safety with the existing or planned landscaping. Ensure there is adequate decking for safety without compromising on the aesthetics and functionality of your outdoor space.
“We had Granite Pools install our pool late last year and they did a wonderful job I would highly recommend them. They did everything in a timely matter and everything was done in approximately six weeks and on time from start to finish.”
