A semi inground pool, also known as a semi-above-ground pool or a hybrid pool, is a type of swimming pool that is partially installed below ground level and partially above ground. This unique design compromises the affordability and accessibility of above-ground pools and the aesthetics and durability of inground pools.
Aesthetically they are much more appealing than above-ground pools, as beautiful decking and pavers can be installed.
Semi-inground pools will come at a higher cost than above-ground but lower price than full inground pools. Therefore, for those looking for a compromise on the budget, a semi-inground pool is one to consider.
In addition, perhaps your backyard has a sloping landscape where a fully inground pool or above-ground pool just will not work. Think about how amazing a semi-inground pool can be.
Here we provide you with a brief overview of semi-inground pools. But please know it is only “brief.” To learn more about your options, please do not hesitate to contact our pool builder company, Escape Pools. We are located in Spring, Texas. However, we build inground to semi-inground pools in Houston and the surrounding areas.
Overview of Semi Inground Pools
Construction
Unlike fully inground pools that require extensive excavation, a semi-inground pool is constructed by excavating and digging a partial hole in the ground, not as deep as a traditional inground pool. The top portion stays above ground level, generally two to three feet, and often with the help of a supporting framework or retaining walls. This design allows for greater stability and structural integrity than traditional above-ground pools.
Materials
At Escape Pools, we build custom inground pools with concrete, gunite. In addition, we create custom semi inground pools the same way.
Design
While semi-inground pools may have some design limitations compared to entirely inground pools, a wide array of customization options are still available when hiring Escape Pools. You can choose from different shapes, sizes, and depths and add features like steps, benches, waterfalls, decking, and more to enhance the functionality and aesthetics of the pool.
How about a spa and bubblers? Bet you never thought you could have these with semi inground pools. So, let’s say with Escape Pools; we make your desired options work. In addition, we bring you different ideas you may never have thought of.
