"In February 2023 their rep came and gave me a quote to trim an apple tree and remove and stump grind another tree in my front yard. My son was being treated for cancer at the time and we were often not home because of treatments needed at the hospital. I paid for the service at the time of quote as I wasn't sure if I would be home when they did the trimming and removal in mid-March. No one showed up. I called in April and was told one of the employees had COVID and that was why no one showed up. I called again in May and was told that there had been too much rain for the equipment to come out and trim and remove the tree and grind the stump. In June I was told that I would be first next week and that they put my name at the top of the work list. They told me this again in July. Now it is after Thanksgiving. My tree has not been trimmed nor has the other one been removed. This company did not want to honor its quote and do the work for the services paid. I still have the work order that says paid in full that is signed and dated for Feb 23, 2023."

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.
