Goodmorning everyone,
I just got back from visiting the site of a pool that a customer wants demolished. I need a hand estimating this one (still very new in the game). The pictures below will say more then my words however the pool is 12'x25' with a 3' wooden walkway around it. The side walls are galvanized sheet metal with supports in a concrete surround. The concrete appears to be only a few inches thick with small pours at each of the supports measuring approximately 1 cubic foot. The structure is 4' above the ground and roughly 5' in the ground at the deepest. I am unsure of the structure below the ground level. In-ground pools usually just have the liner siting against a hard-packed sand. Would the galvanized metal extend below the surface of the ground? I would probably scrap the metal, thrash the liner separate from the wood and get a 10yard dumster for the concrete. I will probably need 10 yards of fill dirt to fill the hole and do grading away from the house. I am debating using my 1-ton dump for the wood and liner however I may want to just get a can. I would probably rent an excavator with a thumb to do the demo. I will have side gate access. I also need to call the county to see if I need a permit. Any clue from any Marylanders on here if I would need one?
Thanks for all the help guys!
