Pool Demolition Las Cruces NM — Cost, Caliche, Permits & Haul-Off

Pool demolition in Las Cruces is more complex than most markets because of caliche — the dense calcium carbonate hardpan found throughout the Mesilla Valley at 2,000–2,800 lbs per cubic yard per USDA NRCS Doña Ana County soil survey. Standard national pool demolition quotes don’t account for caliche weight. We do.
