Pool Removal Arizona: Licensed & Insured Inground and Above Ground Pool Demolition Contractor

Here’s Why Removing Your Pool in Arizona Makes Sense

If you live in Arizona—especially in places like Phoenix, Tucson, or Mesa—you’re all too familiar with the sweltering summers. A pool might seem like a great idea, but the ongoing costs can make it a headache. Between high water usage, the cost of chemicals, cleaning, and inevitable repairs, maintaining a pool can drain more than just your energy. And with Arizona becoming more focused on water conservation, it’s no surprise that more homeowners are choosing to take out their pools. It’s a move that can save money, enhance safety, and even raise the value of your home if you want to sell it in future.

But what does the process look like? And how do you know if it’s the right decision for you? Let’s dive into that.

The Normal Pool Demolition Process: Above Ground vs. Inground Pools

When it comes to removing pools, there are two main types we are specialized in: Above Ground Pools and Inground Pools. But most of our clients has an Inground Pools. Each comes with its own set of challenges and removal methods.

Above Ground Pool Removal in Arizona

If you are dealing with an above-ground pool, the process of removing it is quick and simple compared to inground removal. One of our guy will start draining the pool, the safely disassemble the structure, and haul away all of the debris and waste. The benefit of above-ground pool removal is that it’s faster and more affordable. After removal, you’ll have a blank canvas ready to be transformed into whatever outdoor space you envision.

How much does above ground pool removal cost? Typically, it ranges between $1,000 and $3,000 depending on the pool’s size and accessibility. It’s a budget-friendly option for homeowners who are looking for quick results.

 Inground Pool Removal: Full vs. Partial Removal

Inground pool removal is a bit more involved, but it offers more flexibility depending on your future plans for the space. Let’s break down the two methods: full removal and partial removal (also known as pool fill-in).

Full Pool Removal

Full removal is exactly what it sounds like. We completely remove the pool structure, including the concrete or fiberglass, plumbing, and all associated equipment. After the pool is gone, the hole is filled with clean soil, compacted, and leveled to blend seamlessly with the rest of your yard.

This method is the best option if you’re planning on building anything in the area, whether it’s a new patio, garden, or outdoor kitchen. It ensures there’s no risk of ground settling in the future, which can occur if any part of the pool is left behind.

Benefits of Full Removal:

• No risk of future structural issues
• Full flexibility for new construction or landscaping projects
• Adds value to your property, especially in Arizona’s growing real estate market
• Cost of Full Pool Removal: On average, this method can range from $5,000 to $15,000, depending on the size of the pool and the complexity of the job.

Partial Pool Removal

With partial removal, we break down the top portion of the pool, drill drainage holes, and fill the remaining structure with dirt and gravel. This option is less expensive and quicker, but it’s important to note that it’s not suitable if you plan on building over the area in the future. However, if your goal is to turn the space into a garden or lawn, partial removal works perfectly.

Benefits of Partial Removal:

• More affordable and faster than full removal
• Great for repurposing the space for non-structural uses like gardening or creating an open play area
• Cost of Partial Pool Removal: This option typically costs between $3,000 and $8,000, making it a more cost-effective solution for homeowners who just want to reclaim their yard.
