We have a 16 ft Intex pool and this is the first year we’re doing pavers rather than just setting the feet on the lawn and praying. I have 4 inch thick pavers. Do people usually just do a full circle around the pool or just have pavers where a leg is? If it’s a 16 ft pool, are pavers set up in a 16 ft circle or is there another measurement I should be taking into consideration. It seems like the bottom of the pool is slightly smaller than the top. I want to make sure I’m putting them in the right since I have to dig out space for them.


Thanks!

It does not seem like anyone here has put up a 16 ft Intex pool recently to advise you.
 
I put pavers down for 16’ round pool. 1 for each leg. I marked where the middle of each leg sat and placed the pavers. Then the digging started, since they need to be level with the ground. I used a level and a 16’ board to make sure they were at the same height all around. It actually came out better than i thought it would and helps to stabilize the legs. I cut green lawn turf carpet to fit around the edge and legs. Have not yet put that down.
