Longevity The average above ground pool will last 7-15 years before the structure gives out, although their liners will last 5-9 years before they have to be replaced. For an inground structure, the longevity really is contingent on the type of pool. For example, fiberglass should last well over 20 years. Vinyl pools should have a structure that lasts, but their liner needs to be replaced on average every 6-11 years. As for concrete, their structure should also last a long time, but keep in mind they need to be resurfaced every 9-13 years, which can get very, very expensive.
Outdoor Rooms Swimming Pools. Deciding on an in-ground pool versus an above ground pool depends on your budget and where you live. In regions of the country where it's warm most of the year, an in-ground pool installed in the backyard is almost expected. In cooler areas or for tight budgets, an above-ground pool may fit the bill.
