How We Demolish Pools
An aging, unused, or damaged swimming pool is more than a maintenance headache—it is a significant safety risk and a drain on your property value. At A+ Enterprises, we specialize in the complete structural demolition of all pool types. We provide a “ground-up” restoration service that ensures your yard is safe, stable, and ready for whatever comes next.
In-Ground Pool Demolition (Total Structural Removal)
In Northeast Pennsylvania, “filling in” a pool is a short-term fix that leads to long-term disasters like sinkholes and drainage “swamps.” We advocate for Total Structural Removal.
- Concrete & Gunite Shell Breaking: We utilize heavy hydraulic machinery to break out the entire shell and floor.
- Steel & Vinyl Extraction: Complete removal of all metal framing and liners.
- Structural Backfilling: We use clean, engineered fill and professional compaction to ensure the ground is solid.
- Site Grading: Professional contouring to ensure proper water runoff.
Above-Ground Pool Dismantling & Removal
Don’t let an old, rusted above-ground pool take up valuable space. These projects often involve more than just the pool itself.
- Structural Dismantling: We safely tear down the steel or aluminum walls and dispose of the vinyl liners.
- Deck & Platform Removal: As experts in Porch & Deck Removal, we can dismantle the surrounding wooden structures in one visit.
- Sand & Base Clearing: We remove the sand base and level the area so you can grow grass immediately.
- Fast Turnaround: Most above-ground removals are completed and hauled away in just a few hours.

Frequently Asked Questions About Pool Removal
Yes! We are a full-service Structural Demolition company. We can remove the pool, the deck, and any Old Sheds nearby in one seamless project.
A “fill-in” involves leaving the concrete shell in the ground. This creates a “bathtub effect” where water collects, causing the ground above to become a permanent swamp. It also makes the land unbuildable. Total Removal is the only way to protect your property’s future value.
Yes. We coordinate with local code enforcement in cities like Scranton and Wilkes-Barre to ensure all structural permits are secured and inspections are completed.
Costs vary based on the pool type, size, and accessibility for our heavy machinery. We provide transparent, flat-rate quotes following a brief site walk-through.
