Swimming Pool Demolition


Removing an above-ground pool is less complicated than one might think. Draining the pool, tearing it down, and then filling the area with topsoil and grass seed is all that is involved.

In-Ground Pool Demolition

In-ground pool removal typically involves draining the pool, drilling holes in the bottom, demolishing the top surrounding walls, and filling with pool with backfill and topsoil. This can change depending on which method you choose.

How Much Does it Cost for Pool Removal Services? 

Generally, the cost can range from $5,000 to $15,000 and up if you want to remove your concrete pool completely from the ground. If you just want to fill in your concrete swimming pool, it can average cost between $3,500 and $5,000.

Swimming Pool Removal and Fill-In Methods


There are two ways to demolish a pool properly. One removal process is to partially deconstruct it and cover it with rubble and dirt, and the other is to totally remove the pool structure before filling the cavity with dirt.

Partial Pool Demolition

Partial pool demolition can often be a more practical and cost-effective option for pool owners who want to get rid of their pool in a less time-consuming way.

  • Partial Pool Removal or Pool Fill-in Method with No Backfill for New Installation
  • Partial Pool Removal or Pool Fill-in with Engineered Backfill

Complete Inground Pool Removal

Complete pool removal includes breaking up the entire structure using heavy machinery. Concrete removal is part of this process instead of using it as filler.

  • Full Pool Removal with Non-Engineered Backfill
  • Full Pool Removal with Engineered Backfill

Things to Consider When Choosing a Demolition Process

Impact on Land Stability


Partial pool demolition followed by backfilling and compacting is not recommended if you plan on building a new structure in the future. This area will likely experience shifting or sinkage if it is not properly filled and compacted.

Cost


Depending on the size of the pool and what type of equipment is needed, the cost can vary. Complete pool demolition is going to cost significantly more than a partial demolition.

Effect on Land Desirability


You will need to disclose to potential buyers how your pool was filled in, as this can affect the value of your property. Usually, if you had the pool completely removed, future use will have fewer restrictions, making it easier to sell.
