Thinking About Removing Your Pool in Virginia?

You’re Not Alone – Here’s Why More Homeowners Are Doing It

Let’s be honest, having a pool used to sound like a dream… until the maintenance took over. These days, more and more folks in Virginia are deciding to take their pools out. And it makes sense when you think about it.

Here are some of the most common reasons:

  • The upkeep costs too much, and water bills keep climbing
  • It’s tough to keep the water clean, and no one wants a mosquito breeding ground
  • You’re constantly fishing out frogs, bugs, and leaves
  • It’s a safety concern with kids or pets running around
  • You’d rather have more usable yard space
  • You’re getting the place ready to sell

Getting rid of your pool isn’t just about saving money or cutting down on weekend chores. It also gets rid of stagnant water that can attract pests or even become contaminated. Plus, it opens up your yard for something you’ll actually enjoy — and it can add to your home’s value down the road.

Remove or Renovate?

Here’s How to Decide What’s Right for You

If your pool is old, cracked, or leaking all the time, removing it might be the better move. Renovating sounds like a quick fix, but it can cost just as much as tearing it out, and it doesn’t always solve the long-term problems.

When you remove it, you’re starting fresh. No more patch jobs or chasing leaks. Just a clean, open space where you can build a patio, plant a garden, or finally have the yard you’ve been wanting.

How We Demolish and Remove Pools in Virginia

Here’s What the Process Looks Like

We keep it simple and stress and hassle free from the beginning to the end. Here’s how it goes:

  • Free Inquiry and On Site Estimate
    We come by, take a look at your pool, and walk you through the options. No pressure, no surprises.
  • Permit Help
    Every city or county has its own rules. We’ll take care of all the paperwork so you don’t have to deal with it.
  • Draining and Demo
    We safely pump out the excess water, we take the swimming pool apart using the right equipment, and haul it off. We keep things clean and controlled so your yard isn’t a total mess.
  • Filling and Compacting
    Once the pool is gone, we fill the area with soil and level it smoothly, to keep the area stable.
  • Final Grading
    We clean and level it out again so your yard is stable and ready for whatever’s next – fresh grass, a new patio, or even a firepit.

Full vs Partial Pool Removal

What is the difference?

  • Full Pool Removal – its the best option if you want to do something big with the space later, like a build or major landscaping. It completely takes out the pool structure and helps your property value in the long run.
  • Partial Pool Removal – is faster and more budget-friendly. It’s a good choice if you just want the pool gone. Just a heads-up though, some counties in Virginia don’t allow this, so we’ll help you check.
