A lap pool is exercise equipment you’ll actually use. Long, narrow, and built for swimming in a straight line, it turns a daily workout into something you can do before coffee, without a gym membership or a commute.
Who it’s for
Lap pools fit swimmers first: people who want real exercise at home, year after year. They also fit narrow lots beautifully. A side yard that can’t hold a freeform pool can often hold a lap pool with room to spare.
Getting the proportions right
Length matters more than width, and consistent depth matters more than either. We design lap pools around your stroke and your lot, with clean water circulation, minimal steps and obstructions in the swim lane, and finishes that keep the visual noise down.
A lap pool doesn’t have to be single-purpose either. A tanning ledge at one end, or a widened section for the family, keeps the lane honest while making the pool social on weekends.
Every build starts with a custom design so the pool fits both the swimmer and the site. Not sure a lap pool is the right call? Compare the other pool types we build or call (504) 688-4066 for a free consultation.

Lap Pool FAQs
How much will my lap pool project cost?
It depends on the size, the materials, and what your site needs for excavation and drainage. You get a written estimate after a free on-site consultation, before any work starts.
Is the lap pool the right fit for my yard?
That's exactly what the free design consultation answers. We look at your lot, drainage, and how you'll use the space, then tell you honestly whether this style fits or another one serves you better.
How long will the project take?
It depends on the design, permitting, and the weather. You get a written schedule at design approval, and the same crew sees it through to the final walkthrough.
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes. Big Easy Pool Designs holds Louisiana Residential Contractor License #890459 and Commercial Contractor License #3667, both current, and we handle the parish permits for every project we build.
