Thinking about filling in your pool? While removing an unused or unwanted pool might seem like the right move, there are smarter alternatives that save time, money, and long-term flexibility. Freedom Decks offers pool fill-in alternatives that preserve the structure of your pool while turning it into a safe, stylish, and usable space.
Filling in a pool is rarely simple. The process often requires draining, permit acquisition, truckloads of fill material, and labor-intensive compaction to avoid future settling. These steps can cost thousands of dollars.
Traditional fill-ins create significant waste. Concrete and debris contribute to landfill overflow and disturb the surrounding soil and ecosystem.
Once filled, pools are extremely difficult to restore. This permanent alteration may reduce home value and limit options for future buyers.
Our most recommended option, a custom Freedom Deck converts the unused pool into a walkable surface, reclaiming the space without demolition. You get the appearance and function of a patio with the structure still intact—ideal for future flexibility.
Pool covers offer a temporary solution. While not a usable surface, they improve safety and reduce maintenance. Some homeowners choose decorative covers to blend with landscaping.
If you prefer to remove some depth, a partial fill can convert part of the pool to usable garden or patio space while keeping the foundation. This saves on full demolition costs and may offer hybrid functionality.
A Freedom Deck costs far less than filling in a pool. There’s no need for demolition, backfill, or long permitting processes.
Freedom Decks are installed in a fraction of the time required for a full pool fill-in. Minimal disruption, fast results.
Our solution avoids waste and protects the environment. The pool stays intact, reducing landfill burden and avoiding soil disruption.
Decks are removable, giving you future flexibility. You can return to a traditional pool setup if needed, with no costly excavation.
Choose from a range of materials and designs to match your home’s style. Freedom Decks eliminate the hazard of an open pool while adding usable outdoor space.
