Evaluate the Pool & Property
Prepare the Pool Structure
Backfill & Compact the Area
Grade & Restore the Yard
We begin by assessing the pool shell, site drainage, and heavy equipment access to plan for a safe and stable project.
The pool shell is prepared to ensure proper drainage and structural stability before the fill process begins.
We place and compact high-quality fill material in layers to prevent future settling and ensure a solid surface.
The final layer of topsoil is graded to match your property’s natural slope, leaving a blank canvas for your new yard.

Reclaiming your yard opens up endless possibilities. The restored area can be prepared for lawn, landscaping, patio space, play areas, or other outdoor improvements. Stop paying for pool maintenance and start enjoying your entire property again.

Pool Fill-In & Backyard Restoration FAQs
Does a pool fill-in require a permit?
Permit requirements vary by town, village, municipality, and property. Local requirements should be reviewed before work begins.
Will the ground settle after the pool is filled?
Proper backfilling and compaction are important for creating a stable finished area and reducing the risk of future settling.
Is fill-in cheaper than full pool removal?
Fill-in can sometimes cost less than full removal because less of the pool structure may need to be removed. The actual cost depends on the pool, site access, local requirements, and the amount of restoration needed.
Can I build a structure on top of a filled-in pool?
Future use of the area depends on the fill method, soil conditions, local requirements, and the type of structure being considered. Any plans for construction should be evaluated before choosing a fill-in method.
