Pool Removal vs. Pool Conversion
While pool removal demolition may seem like the obvious choice, pool conversion can actually be a much better option for a variety of reasons.
Pool conversion can be an incredibly cost-effective solution. Rather than spending money on pool removal and noisy demolition works. By utilizing the existing cavity & converting your pool into an outdoor living space with a water storage makes a lot of sense.
In fact, pool conversion cost are comparable to a pool removal & often less when dealing with limited access, and can even add value to your property with a landscape at ground level.
In addition to cost savings, pool conversion can also offer a range of environmental benefits. By repurposing your pool into a water tank you can collect and use rainwater to irrigate your lawn or garden, reducing your overall water consumption and helping to conserve resources.
And let’s not forget the added aesthetic benefits of pool conversion. By transforming your pool into an outdoor living space or water feature, you can create a beautiful and functional addition to your property that you and your family can enjoy for years to come.
Why Converting Your Pool into a Water Tank is better than Putting a Concrete Lid
If you’re considering repurposing your pool and undertaking pool removal, converting it into a water tank is a far better option than putting a concrete lid on your old pool that raises the finished height & it’s difficult to grow something on concrete pad.
This allows you to transform your old pool into a functional water storage system while keeping the finished height of your new landscape level with the existing coping.
Not only is it more cost-effective than installing a concrete lid, but it also provides a variety of options for the new space, such as a lawn, garden, vegetable patch, or even a pond.
We can set the finished water storage level based on how you plan to use the space, such as adding 200mm of topsoil or crushed rock for paving or decking, or 400mm of topsoil for a vegetable garden.
Additionally, Tankless’ pervious top allows excess water from irrigation to filter back into the system, promoting sustainable water use and reducing water waste.

Recently we had the pleasure of helping Jenni convert her rarely used pool to a 30,000 litre water storage with a vegetable garden.
Here’s what she had to say:
” The whole experience of converting our rarely used swimming pool into a rainwater tank and large vegetable garden with Tankless has been fantastic. Darren assisted in my application to Plan SA for the conversion to be done in Adelaide and provided all the technical information to make the planning and development applications run smoothly and efficiently. He then traveled over to South Australia for the installation including transporting the agricultural pipe in a huge truck as there were supply issues with the product in SA. Darren and Thomas worked incredibly hard over the 3 days of installation and were informative about the process, polite and neat – all I could have asked for 1 I would highly recommend Tankless to anyone considering making their home and garden more sustainable.”
