    Thinking About Removing Your Pool? Maybe These Are Your Considerations

    Deciding to remove your pool is a big decision, but don’t worry, we’re here to help every step of the way. With our years of experience, we can do everything from removing part of the pool to taking the whole thing out, depending on what you need.

    • Maintenance and Upkeep: Pools require regular maintenance, cleaning, and chemical balancing. Removing a pool could alleviate the ongoing maintenance costs and time commitment.
    • Safety Concerns: For households with young children or pets, a pool can pose safety risks. Removing the pool could eliminate the potential for accidents and provide peace of mind.
    • Space Utilization: If the pool is not frequently used, the space it occupies could be repurposed for other amenities such as a garden, patio, or outdoor entertainment area.
    • Cost Savings: Beyond maintenance expenses, removing a pool can reduce water and energy costs associated with pool operation, potentially resulting in long-term financial savings.
    • Property Value: In some cases, a pool may not add significant value to a property, and removing it could actually improve the overall appeal and marketability of the home.

    The Process of Breaking Down a Pool

    • Drain the pool and disconnect all utilities.
    • Secure necessary permits from local authorities.
    • Demolish and remove the pool deck and surrounding structures.
    • Break up the pool shell using heavy machinery or by hand.
    • Haul away the debris and properly dispose of it.
    • Fill the remaining hole with compacted fill dirt.
    • Grade the area to ensure proper drainage.
    • Restore the area with topsoil and seed, or lay new sod if desired.
    • Inspect the site to ensure all safety and environmental standards are met.

    Permits and Licensing for Dismantling a Pool

    • Why Permits are Required– Permits are required to ensure that the dismantling of a pool is done safely and in compliance with local regulations.
    • How to Obtain a Permit: To obtain a permit, one typically needs to submit an application, provide project details, and pay a fee as per the local regulations.
    • Working with Licensed Contractors: Working with a licensed contractor like us (Remove A Pool) is important because it ensures that the individual or company has the necessary qualifications and expertise to perform the job correctly.
    • Risks of Hiring the Wrong Contractor: If you go to the wrong people, such as unlicensed contractors, you may face consequences such as subpar workmanship, safety hazards, and potential legal or financial liabilities. It’s crucial to prioritize working with a licensed and reputable contractor to avoid these risks and ensure a professional and compliant pool dismantling process

    Costs and Factors to Consider

    When it comes to getting rid of a pool, the price can vary depending on several key factors. Here’s a breakdown to help you understand what to expect, how the costs can go up, and why it’s important to ensure the job is done correctly.

    Basic Price Range:

    The average cost for eliminating a pool typically starts around $5,000 for a partial removal and can go up to $10,000 or more for a full removal. These prices depend on several factors, including the size and type of pool (concrete, fiberglass, or vinyl), accessibility to your property, and the method of removal.

    What Causes Prices to Increase?

    1. Pool Size and Material: Larger pools, or pools made of more durable materials like concrete, take more time, labor, and equipment to remove, which can drive up the price.
    2. Full vs. Partial Removal: A full removal involves breaking down and hauling away the entire pool structure, which naturally costs more than a partial removal, where only the top portion is demolished and the rest is filled in.
    3. Accessibility: If your pool is in a difficult-to-reach location, like a backyard with limited access for heavy equipment, expect the costs to increase due to the additional effort required.
    4. Local Permits and Zoning Laws: Depending on your area, you may need special permits or additional work to comply with local zoning regulations. This could add extra steps—and cost—to the process.

    Risks of Skipping the Proper Process:

    Deciding to take shortcuts by neglecting the correct process for removing a pool can lead to significant issues in the future. Inadequate demolition or backfilling may cause problems such as ground settling, potentially leading to sinkholes or an unstable surface. This could make it difficult or hazardous to carry out future landscaping or construction without incurring expensive repairs.

    Failing to obtain the necessary permits or engaging unlicensed contractors can also lead to fines or the need to completely redo the work, resulting in even higher costs.
