A DIFFERENT KIND OF BACKYARD
HOMERoom to grow.LAWN · GARDEN · OPEN SPACEACCESSILLUSTRATION
Illustrative possibilities, not a completed project. Restoration and future use depend on the removal method and site conditions.
LESS UPKEEP.
MORE POSSIBILITY.

A garden. A bigger lawn. Space for the things you actually do outside. Start by understanding what removing your pool would involve.

BEFORE YOU DECIDE

Two approaches.
Different tradeoffs.

The right choice depends on your pool, your property, and what you want to do with the space afterward.

01

Complete removal

Discuss removing the pool structure and hauling material away, followed by suitable backfill and grading. Ask how the scope affects future plans for the site.

Understand complete removal
02

Partial removal & fill-in

Discuss whether some of the pool structure can remain below ground. Ask about drainage, compaction, required approvals, and any future-use restrictions.

Understand partial removal

A contractor must confirm feasibility and local requirements for your property.

WHAT SHAPES THE ESTIMATE

There is more to it
than pool size.

Equipment access, pool material, surrounding concrete, debris disposal, and the finish you want all shape the work. A property-specific estimate is more useful than a one-size-fits-all price.

GOOD QUESTIONS

A few things
worth knowing.

Do you remove the pool yourselves?

No. Columbia Pool Removal is an independent referral service. A separate contractor quotes and performs the work.

Can I build where the pool used to be?

Do not assume that either method makes the site suitable for building. Discuss your intended use, engineering, compaction, and local requirements with the contractor and appropriate professionals before choosing a scope.

What if I do not know which method I want?

Choose ‘Not sure yet’ in the form. You can still describe your goal and ask what information is needed to compare the options.

Is there a charge to submit my request?

No. Submitting your enquiry is free and does not book work or commit you to hiring anyone.
