Pool Removal in Irvine, CA

Pool Removal Options in Irvine

Irvine homeowners have two pool removal options: partial removal (fill-in) or full removal. Fill-in involves breaking the pool shell, drilling drainage holes, and filling the cavity with certified backfill material. Full removal means completely excavating and hauling away the shell.

Fill-in is more common in Irvine due to cost and HOA compatibility, but full removal is required if you plan to build over the area.

Irvine Pool Demolition Permits

The City of Irvine requires a permit for pool demolition. A soil compaction report is also required after backfill to certify the ground is stable. C&S Demolition handles the permit application, the certified backfill, and coordinates the required soil report.

We're experienced with Irvine's Community Development Department and know exactly what documentation is required.
