How to Draw a Deck Around a Pool

Updated April 1, 2026

You can design a deck that wraps around a pool using the Deck Builder. Here's how:

1. Add a Pool

  1. Open the Deck Builder and go to the pool tools.
  2. Choose between a circle or oval, and select your size.
  3. Tap Add Pool to place it on the scene.

2. Add a House (Optional)

If your deck connects to a house, draw out the rough shape of the house before drawing the deck path.

3. Draw the Deck Perimeter

  1. Go to Deck Tools → Draw Deck Level.
  2. Draw the path around the pool — the app will automatically snap to the corners of the pool.
  3. Tap on any dimension to enter custom measurements as you go.
  4. If you make a mistake, hit the undo button to go back.
  5. To complete the deck, connect the two blue dots — the deck structure will auto-generate around the pool, including beams underneath.
