Swimming Pool Removal

Swimming Pool Demolition & Fill-Ins

Drain, demolish, and reclaim your yard with complete pool removal and backfilling services.

Makki Demolition helps homeowners reclaim outdoor space by removing aging or unused swimming pools. We manage every step, from permit coordination and water drainage to demolition, backfilling, and compaction.

Our process protects surrounding landscaping, fencing, and utilities while leaving a stable base for future patios, lawns, or additions.

Inground & Above-Ground

We remove vinyl, fiberglass, and concrete pools, including structural walls, decks, and mechanical systems.

Compaction Included

After demolition we backfill with clean material and compact in lifts to prevent future settlement.

Permit Assistance

Our team helps gather drawings, coordinate permits, and schedule inspections required by the city.

Our Process

Step 1

Drain & Disconnect

We drain the pool, disconnect power and gas lines, and remove pumps and heaters.

Step 2

Demolition & Removal

Pool shells are broken down, hauled away, or perforated based on your chosen removal method.

Step 3

Backfill & Compaction

Engineered fill is imported, placed in lifts, and compacted to meet future building requirements.

Step 4

Final Grading

We rough grade the yard for sod, patios, or new construction and can coordinate landscaping partners.
