The Richmond Virginia Pool Removal Experience

There is a step-by-step process to removing a pool in Richmond Virginia and here’s what you can basically expect to experience with Remove A Pool:

Step – The Estimate: The first phase of the demolition process involves your initial request for an estimate. Once you’ve made your request, we set a date to visit your property in which you can then expect a careful assessment of the pool and property. You’ll receive more information about the demolition process and you’ll be provided with two options to choose from: abandonment or exhumation.

Step 2 – Permits: Remove A Pool will find out if additional permits are needed to provide our demolition services on your property. If they are, we’ll obtain them so we can get started.

Step 3 – Demolition: It’s time to break ground and demolish that old pool! If you’ve chosen an abandonment removal, we’ll remove most of the pool and fill in the remaining hole with dirt and rocks. Before filling the hole with dirt and rocks, using state-of-the-art machinery, we’ll punch holes into the bottom.

This step is critical and allows for future drainage. If you’ve chosen an exhumation removal, we’ll remove every inch of that old pool and then fill in the remaining hole with dirt and rocks. The process of filling in the hole is done carefully to avoid “settling” of the ground now or in the future.

Step 4 – Clean-Up: It’s clean-up time! During clean-up, we load up all of the debris into a truck and then take away the debris to a recycling station. Your property is left in the same condition it was found minus the pool, of course. This step also involves planting fresh grass seed at an additional charge upon request.
