Partial Pool Removal
Partial pool removal is often the most cost-effective option for homeowners who simply want the pool eliminated and the yard restored.
Partial Removal Typically Includes:
Removal of pool equipment
Removal of pool decking as required
Demolition of upper pool walls
Breaking openings in the pool floor for drainage
Filling the pool cavity with approved material
Compaction and grading
Site restoration
Partial removals are commonly used when the area will remain open lawn, landscaping, or recreational space.
Full Pool Removal
For homeowners who may eventually build structures in the area or who want the pool completely eliminated, full pool removal may be the preferred option.
Full Removal Includes:
Complete demolition of pool shell
Removal of concrete, gunite, fiberglass, or vinyl components
Removal of reinforcing steel where applicable
Hauling and disposal of debris
Importing engineered fill material
Compaction in lifts
Final grading and restoration
Full removals provide a completely cleared site ready for future development.
Pool Deck Removal
Many pool demolition projects also require the removal of surrounding hardscape surfaces.
We remove:
Concrete pool decks

Once demolition is complete, we can prepare the area for new landscaping, lawn installation, patios, or outdoor living spaces.
