In the Capital Region of upstate NY a basic in-ground pool with the standard 3 feet of concrete decking and no frills can start as low as $17,000. Add more concrete, basic landscaping,  lighting, electric, fencing and everything else you’ll need and your costs will raise to closer to $25,000… If your yard is sloped you’ll need a retaining wall ($$$), or if your yard has a high water table or if you want a larger, deeper pool with more decking made of stone, pavers or stamped concrete, more gardens, slides, diving boards, heaters, cantilever coping, special lighting, pool shed etc. Your costs can rise to over $100,000 want that 15 foot waterfall that cascades into the gardens around the pool: for a pool with the works think $200,000!
