[quote=SD Realtor]You need to get a permit to fill in a pool. If you just go and drain it and fill it with dirt you will regret it AND it violates code. I would recommend you do it the right way and call up a company that does it the correct way above board.[/quote]
You’re right. If it’s not done the right way he will definitely regret it. After a big rain my neighbor’s pool rose up about a foot and a half out of the ground and cracked in pieces.
