Pool Removal in Coshocton: From Backyard Pool to Fresh Lawn
Double B Excavations & Grade LLC
Making Space for New Possibilities
TRANSFORMING this coshocton BACKYARD
Sometimes the best changes are the ones that give you back space you forgot you had.
That's exactly what happened today in Coshocton, where we turned a pool that was no longer bringing value to the property into fresh, usable lawn space.
It's amazing how quickly a backyard can transform when you have the right equipment and experience.
More and more homeowners are choosing to remove their pools, and it makes sense.
Between constant maintenance, rising chemical costs, and limited seasonal use here in Ohio, pools don't always deliver the value they promise.
Add in the fact that many families find themselves wanting more open yard space for kids to play, gardens to grow, or just simple outdoor enjoyment - and pool removal becomes an smart choice for many properties.
Welcome to Double B!
Project Overview
When we arrived at this Coshocton property this morning, we knew we had our work cut out for us. Even though we didn't get to snap those "before" pictures (sometimes you just get caught up in the work), the job was pretty straightforward: remove the existing pool, haul away all debris, and prepare the space for new grass.
What makes this kind of project interesting is how quickly it can transform a space. By the time we loaded the last pieces into our dump trailer and spread the grass seed, you could already imagine the possibilities for this newly opened backyard. That's what makes these projects so satisfying - we're not just taking something away, we're giving homeowners back their yard space.
The Pool Removal Process
Let me walk you through how we handle these pool removals. While every job is a bit different, there's a method to making it work right. First, we bring in the right equipment - having the proper tools makes all the difference between a smooth project and a headache. Our dump trailer is crucial here - it needs to be big enough to handle all the material we're taking out.
The actual removal is more than just breaking up and hauling away a pool. We need to think about drainage, compaction, and how the yard will settle over time. This isn't like throwing away an old appliance - we're reshaping part of your property. That's why experience matters. We've learned what works and what doesn't when it comes to preparing the space for its new life as a lawn.
From Pool to Lawn: The Transformation
Here's where the real magic happens - turning that empty space into something useful. Once the pool is loaded up and hauled away, we're not done yet. The real key is in the preparation for what comes next. You can't just fill in a hole and call it a day - that's asking for problems down the road.
We take time to properly grade the area, making sure water will flow away from your house and not create puddles in your new lawn. Then comes the grass seed. We picked today's timing carefully - even with the Coshocton heat, getting that seed down right away gives it the best chance to take root. A little water, some patience, and in a few weeks, you'll have a lawn that looks like it's been there all along.
Behind the Scenes
There's more to these projects than just the physical work. Timing matters - especially in this Ohio heat. That's why we got an early start in Coshocton today. When you're dealing with heavy equipment and putting down fresh grass seed, you want to work smart, not just hard.
We also have to think about all the logistics. Having the right-sized dump trailer on site, making sure we've got enough grass seed, and coordinating everything so the job flows smoothly from start to finish. It might look simple when it's done, but there's a lot of planning that goes into making these transformations work right.
