Most pool filling projects require three to seven days for partial removal and one to two weeks for complete removal. The timeline includes water drainage, demolition work, debris removal, backfilling with compacted layers of material, and final grading. Factors affecting your schedule include property access, weather conditions, and municipal inspection requirements. Working with an experienced contractor helps establish realistic timeframes for your specific situation.
While technically possible for smaller projects, DIY pool filling presents significant challenges for most homeowners. The process requires specialized equipment like excavators and jackhammers, technical knowledge of proper drainage installation, and an understanding of soil compaction techniques. Improper filling can lead to settling issues, poor drainage, and potential property damage. Most municipalities also require permits and inspections that professional contractors are better equipped to navigate.
Professional pool removal typically employs a layered approach with different materials. Many contractors recommend starting with a layer of gravel (approximately halfway up the pool depth) to establish proper drainage, followed by compacted clean fill dirt in layers. The top 18 to 36 inches should consist of quality topsoil suitable for supporting grass and plants. This structured approach prevents future settling while ensuring proper water drainage through the filled area.
Most jurisdictions require permits for pool removal to ensure proper procedures are followed. Permit fees typically range from $50 to $250, and the application process may require site plans and details about your removal method. Some municipalities mandate engineering approval, particularly for complete removals. Working without required permits can result in fines and disclosure complications when selling your property. Your contractor often handles permit applications as part of their service.
