Swimming Pool Removal

Swimming Pool Removal

Complete pool demolitions that restore usable yard space.

Houston's extreme weather makes unused pools a liability. We properly remove in-ground pools throughout Harris County, handling everything from permits to final grading.

Our process begins with draining (following Houston Water Conservation rules) and progresses to complete concrete removal. We break up and recycle decking material when possible.

For River Oaks estates and Memorial area homes, we specialize in preserving landscaping during pool removals. All work meets Harris County soil compaction standards for future construction.

We've removed over 150 pools of all types: Plaster, fiberglass, vinyl liner, and even historic tiled pools in Heights bungalows.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you just fill in the pool?

We don't recommend abandonment - proper removal prevents future settling issues common in Houston's clay soils.

How long does the process take?

Most residential pool removals are completed in 3-5 days, weather permitting.

What about permits?

We handle all City of Houston or Harris County permitting, including final inspections.
