What Else Do We Do?

Our team will safely pump out your pool water, cap utilities, and demolish the concrete structure. We break down pool walls and coping at least 24 inches below finish grade to guarantee safety and stability.

If your swimming pool is no longer serving your lifestyle, pool back filling is the fastest and most cost-effective way to reclaim your backyard. At Red Line Grading and Excavating, we specialize in transforming unused pools into safe, stable, and beautiful outdoor spaces.

Concrete removal requires precision and care to prevent damage to surrounding structures. That’s why we use specialized saws and cutting equipment to ensure clean results. Concrete cutting often goes hand-in-hand with breaking and removal services. After cutting, we safely break up and haul away the debris, leaving your site clean and ready for the next phase of construction

At Red Line Grading & Excavating, we provide dirt import and export services to ensure your project has the right amount of soil where it’s needed. Whether you’re removing excess dirt or importing clean fill, our trucking fleet has you covered. We only provide clean, county-approved soil — never contaminated or debris-filled. Every delivery is tested to meet strict safety and environmental standards.

Not every property has easy access for heavy machinery. That’s why Red Line Grading & Excavating offers limited access equipment services designed to work in narrow yards, gated communities, hillside homes, and small spaces where larger machines simply can’t fit. Efficient trucking ensures that debris is removed on time and clean soil is delivered without delay. With our dedicated fleet, your project stays on schedule and runs smoothly.

At Red Line Grading we provide grading services that prepare your land for construction, landscaping, and long-term stability. Whether it’s part of a pool demolition, backfill, or new build excavation, our expert team ensures your property is smooth, level, and ready for its next phase. Grading improves drainage, prevents flooding, and boosts resale value by making your land more usable and attractive. We inspect your property and identify grading needs, from slope correction to compaction.

Testimonial Feedback

“Martin, the owner, handled the contract and was always prompt in returning my phone calls with questions and concerns. Martin and his crew were very professional in backfilling my pool in May, 2011. They were prompt, cleaned up and got the job done in a timely manner. I highly recommend this company to back fill your pool.”
