The Project

Reclaiming a Bedford backyard from an aging pool

This Bedford homeowner was done pouring time and money into an in-ground pool that had stopped getting used — the water had gone green, debris was collecting, and it had become a liability more than an amenity.

We drained and prepped the pool, demolished the structure, then backfilled and compacted the cavity in proper lifts before grading the whole yard level. The result is a clean, stable, open backyard the family can actually use — with no risk of the ground sinking down the road.

This is one of many projects behind our pool removal work — browse more completed projects across the Dallas–Fort Worth metroplex.

How We Did It

Our process, start to finish

Every DFW project runs the same way: the owner who quotes the job is the same person who runs it.

Free on-site assessment

Nathan came out to Bedford within a day to look at access, the pool structure, and the plan for the yard.

Planning & permits handled

We pulled and managed every required permit — you never deal with the city.

Drain & prep

The pool was safely drained and prepped, and the site protected for demolition.

Demolition

The pool structure was broken out and the debris hauled away.

Backfill & compaction

The cavity was filled in proper lifts and compacted — the step that keeps the ground from settling later.

Final grade & clean-up

Graded level so water drains away, and the site left clean and ready to use.

What Proper Pool Removal Involves

Removed right, so the yard stays level

Taking out an in-ground pool is more than knocking a hole in the shell. Done wrong, the ground sinks and settles for years and can become a problem when you sell. Done right, you get a clean, stable, usable yard.

There are two approaches, and we’ll walk you through which fits your property and budget:

  • Partial removal — the top of the pool is demolished, the shell is drilled for drainage, and the cavity is filled and compacted. Faster and more affordable.
  • Full removal — the entire pool structure is broken out and hauled away before backfill. Best when you want to build on the spot later.

Either way, the difference between a good job and a bad one is engineered backfill and compaction — filling in the right lifts of soil, compacted properly, then graded so water drains away. That’s what keeps the yard from sinking down the road, and it’s North Texas clay soil that makes doing it correctly matter.

Common Questions

Pool removal in Bedford & DFW — FAQ

How long does pool removal take?
Most residential pool removals take only a few days once permits are in hand. We’ll give you a firm timeline at your free estimate.
Do you handle the permits?
Yes. We pull and manage every required permit for your pool removal — you never have to deal with the city.
What’s the difference between partial and full pool removal?
Partial removal demolishes the top of the pool, drills the shell for drainage, then backfills and compacts — it’s faster and more affordable. Full removal breaks out and hauls off the entire structure. We’ll recommend the right option for your plans.
Will the ground settle or sink later?
Not when it’s done right. We backfill in proper lifts and compact each one, then grade the surface so water drains away — that’s what prevents settling down the road.
Do you charge for estimates?
No. Estimates are free, and we can usually get to you the same or next day — the owner, Nathan, comes out personally.
