Hatboro — known locally as “the Boro” — is one of Montgomery County’s most charming small boroughs. Founded in 1715 and named for hat manufacturer John Dawson, Hatboro sits along Pennypack Creek at the center of the Hatboro-Horsham School District, with SEPTA rail access to Philadelphia and a walkable downtown along York Road. Its 1.5 square miles hold approximately 8,200 residents in a variety of housing types — Hatboro Farms, Hatboro Heights, the Yerkes Tract, Mitchell Park, and the Victorian District among its recognized neighborhoods.
Many of those homes were developed from the 1930s through the 1960s, and a significant portion came with or later received inground swimming pools. Those pools are aging. Pennsylvania gives Hatboro homeowners roughly 10–12 weeks of comfortable pool weather per year. For the rest of the year, the pool demands maintenance, draws insurance surcharges, and creates liability exposure — all for a water feature that sits covered and unused. The annual cost: $2,000–$5,000 or more. The annual use: a fraction of that investment’s worth.
Robinson Landscape removes pools in Hatboro in 2–3 days. We submit all permit applications directly to Hatboro Borough Hall for processing by Barry Isett & Associates (the borough’s third-party Building Code Official), manage every required inspection, and restore your yard completely. With 25+ years serving Montgomery County, we know the Boro well.
Hatboro Borough is surrounded entirely by Upper Moreland Township to the west, south, and east, and Warminster Township (Bucks County) to the north. Pennypack Creek runs through the center of town — a defining natural feature that also influences drainage conditions on properties near its banks. The borough’s compact 1.5-square-mile footprint means lots are often modest, neighboring properties are close, and project logistics require careful planning.
Hatboro Borough’s permit process is well-defined: Building Permits are explicitly required for demolitions, including pools. Applications are submitted to Borough Hall and reviewed by Barry Isett & Associates, the borough’s third-party Building Code Official. Electrical work and plumbing disconnections require separate permits as well. Robinson Landscape prepares all applications, submits them to Borough Hall at 215-443-9100, and manages every inspection scheduled by Barry Isett & Associates.
