Demolitions FAQs

Technically, you can fill in a pool yourself, but you’ll need permits, inspections, heavy equipment, and a plan to protect nearby structures. Most homeowners discover that renting machinery and hauling debris eats up the savings fast, and any misstep can flag future inspections or scare off buyers. For most people, hiring a licensed pool removal pro is safer, faster, and often cheaper once you add up all the hidden costs.

Moving an in-ground pool is possible when a relocation is necessary. It requires a full commitment to reestablishing the pool in a new location, with strict adherence to local regulations. The process requires securing new permits, excavating the current site, preparing the replacement site, and reinstalling the pool. The associated cost remains the same as buying and installing a new pool.

On average, it takes between one and seven days to fill in a pool. A partial fill-in can take one to three days, while a full pool removal can take between three and seven days. Large pools take longer to fill than small pools built with the same materials and design.

Restoring a filled-in pool is possible when the proper conditions and regulatory approvals are in place. It requires a complete reconstruction of the pool structure that includes securing permits, completing detailed inspections, excavating the filled area, and executing construction tasks to rebuild the pool. Restoration incurs costs equal to installing a brand-new pool due to the extensive work involved, and it requires the expertise of experienced professionals to ensure compliance with all safety and building standards.

Removing a pool can directly impact a home's value. Pools in excellent condition add significant curb appeal in markets that favor outdoor leisure, whereas outdated or costly-to-maintain pools can diminish property appeal. A complete removal that creates buildable space increases home value, while a partial fill-in may restrict future development options and reduce market attractiveness. Homeowners must evaluate the long-term effects on the value of their property when deciding to remove a pool.
