Pool removal Services in Memphis, Tennessee

Pool removal is a specialized demolition service that requires proper equipment, expertise, and environmental compliance-especially in Memphis neighborhoods near Shelby Farms Park and other protected water systems. Whether your pool in East Memphis, Midtown, or Downtown Memphis is cracked, unused, or creating liability issues, EvoNorth handles the complete deconstruction process. We manage concrete cutting, hauling of 20-50 tons of material per typical residential pool, and proper disposal at licensed facilities, completing most Memphis-area projects within 48-72 hours.

Our pool removal process begins with a site assessment to determine pool size, structural composition, and any underground utilities near your property in Bartlett, Arlington, or Lakeland. We then deploy excavation equipment and concrete cutting technology to break up the pool shell and decking, remove all debris including rebar and concrete chunks, and haul everything away in our licensed dump trucks. Finally, we grade and level your yard, leaving it clean and ready for whatever comes next-whether that's a new deck, landscape design, or additional outdoor living space.
