Our 8 Step Pool Demolition Process:
1) Developing a plan to demolish your pool: We work with you to figure out what will be added to the space where your pool or spa used to be. This gives us a better idea of what to prepare for.
2) Obtaining necessary demolition permits: With our team of San Diego pool demolition experts, you’ll never have to worry about obtaining your own permits. We’ll take care of everything for you to make the process as efficient as possible.
3) Draining the Pool itself: We’ll see to it that all remaining water in the pool is fully drained, checked for toxicity, and disposed of properly, all of which is in line with the city of San Diego’s Stormwater regulation.
4) Disconnecting your electric, gas, and plumbing lines: By making sure to disconnect any power, gas, or plumbing lines that may be connected to your swimming pool, we’re keeping ourselves and our work space free of any potential accidents. This saves you from any potential liability hassles.
5) Placing holes in strategic points along the base and walls: From years of experience, we’ve come up with the most practical and efficient way to break down a swimming pool.
6) Backfilling, grading, and compacting the job site: By far the most intensive portion of any project, this is where our expertise truly sets us apart from the competition.
7) Removing all remaining debris: After breaking up the debris into the smallest pieces possible, we load it into trucks and haul it to the nearest recycling plant.
8) The final clean up and inspection: We make it a point to clean up after ourselves, leaving no indication of the swimming pool that used to be there.

FAQs About Swimming Pool Demolition
If you’re planning on building a structure or housing addition over the grounds where your swimming pool used to be located, a soil compaction test and report will be necessary regardless of where you are living in San Diego.
If you’ve had your pool completely removed, it is unlikely that there will be any negative effect on the value of your home. Getting rid of your backyard swimming pool might even make your home more attractive to potential buyers who do not want the responsibility of a pool on their property. On the other hand, a partial pool demolition could discourage potential buyers with backyard aspirations.
There is no need to wait! You can start landscaping immediately after the pool removal process is finished.
Yes. We offer:
- Indoor pool demolition
- Fiberglass pool removal
- Inground pool removal
- Vinyl swimming pool demolition
- And More!
Depending on the availability of the local city inspectors, this process can take anywhere from 2 to 7 days.
Yes. The price for a pool demolition permit varies from city to city, but generally, fees range from $100 to $750. Don’t worry though, our team will handle the entire permit application process for you.
A partial pool demolition involves adding a foot or so of gravel to the bottom of the pool then demolishing the sides and mixing it with clean fill dirt. We then cap all water, sewer, and power lines, remove any remaining electrical pool equipment, then compact the dirt. After the dirt is compacted, it is graded.
If you’re not planning to build a new structure on top of your former pool site, then filling it in this way would be a more cost effective option that still allows for landscaping and gardening in the future. Every city in the San Diego area doesn’t allow partial fill ins, however, so contact us for up to the date information.
