How to Use This Calculator

Enter the pool length and width in feet using interior pool dimensions.
Set the deck width in feet — how far the deck extends from each pool edge (typically 4-8 ft).
Select pool shape: 1 = rectangular, 2 = oval, 3 = freeform.
Choose deck material: 1 = concrete, 2 = pavers, 3 = travertine.
For concrete decks, set the slab thickness (4 inches is standard residential).
Review Deck Area (sq ft), Estimated Cost, and Coping Edge (linear ft) to finalize your contractor quote.

How the result changes with Deck width (ft)

Pool length (ft): Interior length of the pool.
Pool width (ft): Interior width of the pool.
Deck width (ft): Width of the deck surround around the pool. 4-8 feet is typical.
Pool shape (1=rect, 2=oval, 3=free): 1 = Rectangular, 2 = Oval, 3 = Freeform. Adjusts area calculations.
Material (1=concrete, 2=pavers, 3=travertine): Deck surface material. Affects waste factor and cost estimate.
Concrete thickness (in): Slab thickness for poured concrete decks. 4 inches is standard.

Deck area (sq ft): Net deck surface area (outer boundary minus pool area).
Material needed (sq ft): Material quantity including waste factor for cuts and breakage.
Concrete volume (cu yd): Cubic yards of concrete needed (poured concrete decks only).
Estimated cost ($): Approximate installed cost based on material type.
Coping edge (linear ft): Linear feet of pool edge requiring coping stones.
Pool area (sq ft): Pool water surface area adjusted for shape.
Outer boundary length (ft): Total length of the deck plus pool.
Outer boundary width (ft): Total width of the deck plus pool.

Calculate Deck area
Deck area = outerAreaSqFt - poolAreaSqFt
684 = 684
Calculate Material needed
Material needed = deckAreaSqFt * waste
718 = 718
