Start Fresh With Full-Scale Pool Excavation

An unused or aging swimming pool is more than just an eyesore; it's a significant financial and practical burden. From constant maintenance to overly expensive restorations, it’s no wonder why Chicago-area homeowners choose to remove their pools.

Pool Busters Chicago is here to transform a liability into a valuable asset!

Substantial Financial Savings

The cost of pool ownership extends far beyond the initial installation. By opting for swimming pool removal, you can eliminate thousands of dollars in annual expenses.

Average Annual Maintenance: Pool maintenance, including chemicals, cleaning, and professional servicing, can cost between $1,200 and $3,000 per year.

Repairs & Upgrades: Unexpected repairs to pumps, filters, or liners can easily add $500 to $2,500 to your yearly budget. Major repairs like resurfacing can cost upwards of $10,000.

Utilities & Insurance: Increased electricity and water bills, along with higher liability insurance premiums, contribute hundreds more to your annual costs.

Increase Your Property Value & Appeal

While a pool can be attractive to some buyers, an old or poorly maintained one can significantly detract from your home’s value and marketability.

Removing an unmaintained inground pool broadens a property’s appeal to a wider range of potential buyers, especially families with young children or those who prefer a low-maintenance yard. A clean, spacious backyard is a more versatile and desirable feature.

Reclaim Your Backyard Space

Your backyard holds immense potential. Removing a pool that dominates the landscape opens up endless possibilities for creating a space that better suits your lifestyle.

Imagine transforming the area into:

A lush, green lawn for children and pets to play.
An elegant outdoor patio or entertainment area.
A beautiful garden or functional vegetable patch.
The foundation for a future home extension.

Ask our team about hydroseeding, sod installation, or even patio laying as part of your swimming pool demolition project, and move your backyard into its next chapter faster!
