What is included in your pool or spool demolition service?

We handle the full process, including site prep, demolition, debris removal, grading, and a clean finish. We can remove in-ground pools, above-ground pools, and spools. Our goal is to leave you with a safe, usable space and a smooth experience from start to finish.

How long does pool demolition usually take?

Most pool and spool demolition projects take a few days, depending on the size, access, and site conditions. We will give you a clear timeline before work starts, keep you updated during the job, and work efficiently to minimize disruption to your property.

Do I need permits for pool demolition?

In many areas, yes, permits may be required for pool removal or backfilling. We help guide you through what is needed for your project and make sure the work is done the right way. We want you to feel confident that nothing important is being overlooked.

Will demolition damage my yard or nearby structures?

We take care to protect surrounding areas as much as possible during demolition. Every property is different, so we plan the job around access, hardscaping, fencing, and nearby structures. Our hands-on experience helps us reduce unnecessary mess, damage, and surprises.

What happens after the pool is removed?

After demolition, we backfill and grade the area so the space is stable and ready for its next use. Many homeowners want more yard space, a patio area, or a fresh landscape plan. We can help you think through the best next step for your property.

Pool & Spool Demolition

If you have an old pool or spool that is cracked, leaking, unsafe, or no longer fits how you use your yard, we can help you reclaim that space. At Hercs Works, we handle pool and spool demolition with a careful, step-by-step approach that keeps your property, drainage, and future plans in mind. Whether you want more lawn, a garden area, outdoor living space, or a clean slate for a new project, we make the removal process simple and straightforward.

Our service can include site review, demolition planning, breaking up and removing pool or spool materials, hauling debris, backfilling, grading, and preparing the area for its next use. We work with many common structures, including concrete pools, small spools, plaster finishes, decking, coping, and related hardscape. We also pay close attention to access, nearby landscaping, irrigation lines, and the overall condition of the yard before work begins.

Every property is different, so we talk through the scope before starting. Some homeowners need a full removal, where the structure and debris are taken out and the area is filled and compacted. Others may need a partial demolition based on site conditions, budget, or future land use. We explain the options clearly so you understand what is being done, what the site will look like afterward, and how the finished grade will support drainage and usability.

As a husband-and-wife team, we built Hercs Works around quality work, honest communication, and great customer service. We know demolition can feel like a big step, so we focus on keeping the process organized, safe, and easy to understand. Our goal is not just to remove an unwanted pool or spool, but to help improve the function, appearance, and value of your outdoor space.

If you are ready to remove an aging swimming pool, outdated spool, or damaged backyard water feature, we would love to help. Contact Hercs Works to talk about your pool demolition project, your yard goals, and the best way to turn that unused space into something more useful.

Our Pool & Spool Demolition Process

We keep pool and spool removal simple, safe, and well organized. From the first walkthrough to the final grade, we focus on clear communication, clean job sites, and quality work that gets your yard ready for what comes next.

Site Visit & Demo Plan

We start with an on-site walkthrough to inspect your pool or spool, access points, utilities, drainage, and nearby hardscape. Then we explain full or partial demolition options, outline the timeline, and give you a clear estimate so you know exactly what to expect before work begins.

Safe Removal & Haul-Off

Once scheduled, we handle draining, saw cutting, breaking out concrete or fiberglass, and removing debris with the right equipment for your site. We work carefully to protect the surrounding landscape, keep the area tidy, and complete most demolition phases within a few days depending on size and access.

Backfill, Grading & Final Walkthrough

After demolition, we backfill with clean material in compacted lifts, rough grade the area for proper drainage, and leave the site clean and stable. We finish with a walkthrough to answer questions, confirm the work meets your goals, and help you plan the next phase for your yard.

Why Homeowners Recommend Hercs Works

Honest feedback on clean work, clear communication, and results that make outdoor spaces easier to enjoy.

Josh and Lacey are amazing! Hercs Works is the best contracting company I have ever hired in Tucson, Arizona. I had them carve out a 260ft driveway and weld a gate at the entrance. Their communication was perfect. Their attention to detail was perfect. Their work ethic is second to none. They will be my first call for any future jobs on my property.

Josh & Lacey are a fantastic team & great to work with! I have had them handle several projects for me… cut down a dead tree, trim down my overgrown Texas Rangers, redo the rip rap around my driveway as well as regrading my driveway & installing 3/8” minus aggregate. I will continue to utilize this great team on future projects. So glad I came across Hercs Works! They are great to work with them & I would highly recommend them to anyone needing just about anything done around your property.
