Anyone can break up a pool. The difference at resale is the paperwork. Every full removal we do closes with a Resale Protection Packet — a documented file that turns "there used to be a pool here" into a documented non-event for a buyer, appraiser, or lender. Here's exactly what's inside.
Nine sections, built as the work happens, not reconstructed after. This is a de-identified specimen; on a real job every row carries your address, dates, and photos.
What was removed, the method (full shell removal to grade), and the finished condition of the yard.SAMPLE
Proves: the scope, in writing.The demolition permit (or the county's written no-permit-required confirmation for unincorporated lots) and the 811 utility-locate record.SAMPLE
Proves: it was done by the book.Records for the electrical disconnect and, where a heater was present, the licensed gas cap.SAMPLE
Proves: no live utilities buried in the yard.Before, during, and after — the shell broken out and hauled off, not pushed back into the hole.SAMPLE
Proves: the concrete actually left the property.Engineered fill placed and compacted in measured lifts — the step the cheap crews skip.SAMPLE
Proves: the ground won't settle.Independent compaction testing where the finish on top calls for it, per our testing policy.SAMPLE
Proves: the fill meets spec, by a third party.Delivery tickets for the engineered fill that went into the void.SAMPLE
Proves: what's in the ground, and how much.A before/after scan comparison confirming the yard came back to grade and drains.SAMPLE
Proves: survey-grade, not "looks about right."The workmanship warranty plus our certificate of insurance ($2M/$5M general liability + Texas workers' comp).SAMPLE
Proves: you're covered, on paper.A punch-and-bury fill-in has no honest closeout file — the whole point of it is that nobody can see what happened to the concrete. There's nothing to document. That's the difference you're paying for, and the difference a buyer feels two years later when the yard doesn't settle.
