Pool removal & concrete pool demolition

When a pool no longer fits how you use the yard, taking it out should be straightforward. Rebold removes concrete pools with attention to how equipment reaches the work, what surrounds it, and the condition of the ground when we finish.

  • Concrete pool removal
  • Full & partial removal
  • ASR-damaged pools welcome
  • Careful access planning
  • Backfill & site preparation
  • Debris hauling

Service overview

What pool removal involves

Start with the yard, not the pool

Before anything comes out, we look at how equipment reaches the backyard, what hardscape and landscaping sit around the pool, where utilities run, and what you want the space to become. Those answers shape the removal method more than the pool itself does.

Full or partial removal

Some pools come out entirely. Others are broken up and backfilled in place. Which approach fits depends on the property, your plans for the space, and local requirements. We define that scope up front so you know exactly what is being removed.

When ASR is part of the story

If your concrete pool has confirmed or suspected alkali-silica reaction, removal often enters the conversation once repair stops making sense. Rebold handles the demolition and removal side of that work. We do not position ourselves as the company diagnosing the concrete condition.

What our customers say

Common questions

Answers before you call

How much does pool removal cost in Austin?
Cost tracks with the size and construction of the pool, how equipment reaches the backyard, whether the pool comes out fully or partially, debris volume, backfill, and the rock and soil conditions underneath. Using national industry figures rather than our own pricing, partial removal, where the shell is broken up and backfilled in place, generally runs about $3,000 to $7,000. Full removal, where the structure is excavated and hauled off, generally runs about $8,000 to $16,000. Those are national ranges, not a quote. We price the actual scope after seeing the property.
Can you remove an ASR-damaged pool?
Yes. If removal is the chosen path for a pool with confirmed or suspected ASR damage, Rebold can handle the demolition and removal work. We do not position ourselves as the company diagnosing the concrete condition.
Do I need a permit to remove a pool in Austin?
Permit and inspection requirements depend on the property, the scope, and the local jurisdiction. We identify the requirements that apply to the project as part of planning the work.
How long does pool removal take?
The schedule depends on access, pool size and construction, hauling, backfill, inspections, weather, and site conditions. Once we understand the project, we can give you a clearer expectation for timing.
What can I do with the space after the pool is removed?
That depends on your goals for the property. Homeowners often use the space for lawn, landscaping, or outdoor living, and some are planning future construction. We want to understand that intention before demolition begins so the removal plan supports it.
