In the case of galvanized steel structure pools with a vinyl liner, we completely remove the liner as well as any plastic or aluminum trim associated with it. We then cut our standard eight-foot by eight-foot holes in the bottom of the pool to allow for proper drainage. At this point, the galvanized steel structure of the swimming pool is excavated from the ground and removed from the site to be recycled. We do not cut corners when completing this task. Any unwanted concrete and or interlocking patios can be broken up and placed in the bottom of the pool before the fill-in of the pool takes place.
