You can fill your fiberglass pool with partial water. This means that some dirt can be removed, but that the rest will still be filled in. This can make it easier to sell your property and buy a new one. Partially filling a pool will require less material then a complete excavation. The material you use will depend on the type of pool you have and the soil you have. It is crucial to choose the correct backfill materials in your area.

Concrete pools will require more materials for filling. For example, if you have a 12'x24' pool with a 6' deep end, you will need a lot more backfill material than if you have a pool with a 12' deep end and a 4' wide side.
