If your pool has been out of service, is not being used, and is seemingly unfixable, it can be repaired and restored. Contact a pool company that offers pool restorations to get the pool back in service.

Restore your abandoned and idle pool.

Most pool restorations occur when a pool has been out of service and unused for multiple years. It can be restored. You can use that pool again.

If you can justify the upfront cost, then restore the pool. You will likely have some options. And the pool can actually be restored to be better today than it was when the pool was initially built. Today’s pool are waterproofed better, plumbed better, equipped better, more energy-efficient, and easier to maintain.

If you cannot justify the upfront cost, then fill-in the pool. When filling-in a pool, it has to be done so properly. This will avoid future sink-holes and additional settling and/or drainage problems. Once filled-in, you can either sod the area, landscape or hardscape – or all of these options – over the filled-in pool area.

If a pool is unusable and has been out of service, you cannot just leave it as-is, stagnant and dirty. Bacteria and other disease-carrying organisms will fester in and around that pool. And an infestation of mosquitos will take up residency in and around that pool. All of this will be unsafe to you and your neighborhood. You must restore it or fill it in.

Pool Restorations and Leak Detection

If a pool has not been used for multiple years, even if it appears to have been winterized properly, you are advised to pressure test the underground plumbing and leak detect the pool before you commit to restoring it. It is crucial that you know the condition of the underground pipes prior to restoring the pool.

We hope this help.
