Residential Demolition Service


As a residential demolition contractor, we will remove old or unwanted structures like homes, garages, pools, and sheds from your property. Our team will handle the demolition, help you obtain necessary permits, and dispose of the debris. We help clients remove eyesores and prepare land for new construction. Whether you need a small structure or a multi-story house demolished, our team is ready to help. 


Commercial Demolition Service


Our commercial demolition services are perfect for removing unwanted larger structures such as schools, office buildings, apartment buildings, and restaurants. We are licensed and experienced demolition contractors and have helped many commercial developers and landowners make room for new construction. We will help you at each process step, from demolition to permitting to disposal. In addition, we can help with post-demolition grading and site preparation.


Structural Demolition


Structural demolition is the controlled destruction and removal of a building or structure. The process includes the structure's main elements, including building walls, floor systems, roof systems, and foundations and footings. This service is needed when a building is no longer safe, outdated, or must be removed for new construction. As a professional structural demolition company, we use specialized equipment and techniques to ensure the job is done effectively and without risk to surrounding buildings or the environment.


Interior Demolition / Selective Demolition


As an interior demolition contractor, we can help you remove non-structural elements of a building's interior while leaving the building's exterior shell intact. Interior and selective demolition focus on non-load-bearing walls, ceilings, flooring, and fixtures. Unlike structural demolition, it doesn't touch the building's main support system. It's essentially "tearing out" a building's insides to prepare for renovation, repurposing, or repair. Our team can help you with your commercial interior demolition projects.


House Demolition


As a home demolition contractor, we remove all types of residential structures. We are experienced in demolishing different kinds of homes, including single-family houses, duplexes, multi-story homes, and townhouses. We follow strict residential and home demolition guidelines to prevent accidents, reduce dust, and minimize environmental impact on the neighborhood. We haul the debris off-site after completing the local house demolition service. We can also help with grading and site preparation to help you with your project's next phase. 


Mobile Home Demolition


We demolish old or unwanted mobile homes. Mobile homes and manufactured homes have a shorter lifespan than traditional stick-built homes, typically around 20-40 years. If your mobile home has reached the end of its natural lifespan and is beyond repair, removal or demolition might be necessary.


Concrete Removal & Concrete Demolition


We provide concrete removal services and can help you break up and remove unwanted concrete from your property. We are experts at tearing out driveways, patios, sidewalks, foundations, and other concrete structures. The process involves using heavy machinery, such as jackhammers and excavators, to break up the concrete before it's hauled off for disposal.


In-Ground Pool Removal


Leaking pools, outdated designs, or renovations may call for the removal of an existing pool. Our pool removal services involve excavating the pool structure, breaking up and tearing out concrete, and disposing of the debris. When we finish the demo, we can backfill the hole and grade the area for you.


Slab and Foundation Removal


We specialize in the removal of concrete slabs and concrete foundations. Concrete slab removal can be a complex process depending on the slab's size, thickness, and steel reinforcement. We have the tools and expertise to tackle concrete slabs of all types.


Parking Lot Removal 


We provide parking lot removal services for businesses, municipalities, and property owners. Parking lot tearouts can be complete removals, removing everything from the concrete or asphalt surface and the underlying subbase. Or it can be a partial removal, targeting specific elements like curbs or entrances or just removing surfaces needing replacement. 


Asphalt Removal


In addition to concrete, we also offer blacktop and asphalt removal services. Asphalt is a petroleum-based bitumen mix that is softer and more flexible than concrete. We use heavy machinery like excavators or track loaders to break up the asphalt into smaller chunks before we haul it off for disposal. 


Sidewalk Removal


We remove sidewalks for residential and commercial properties. We regularly get calls from customers who attempt to remove a sidewalk themselves before realizing concrete removal is a tough job! Our excavators or track loaders can make quick work of your sidewalk and have it removed in no time.


Driveway Removal


We offer fast and professional driveway removal services. Let us handle the heavy lifting and debris disposal to make way for your new construction or landscaping projects. We have the tools and expertise to remove your driveway, whether your driveway is concrete, asphalt, or gravel.


Gravel and Caliche Removal


We can remove caliche, gravel, and stone from parking lots and roads. The depth of caliche and gravel can accumulate over time as property owners add fresh layers on top. With each new layer, the overall depth increases, making removal a bigger and more difficult job. We have the equipment to scoop up and haul off as much caliche as needed for your project.


Types of Demolition Equipment


Here are common types of equipment that demolition contractors use that you might find on-site when we start on your project:


  • Excavators: These are heavy-duty machines with hydraulic arms that can tear down walls, ceilings, and other structural elements.
  • Bulldozers: Bulldozers are tracked vehicles with large blades that can be used to push and level debris.
  • Backhoes: Backhoes are similar to excavators but have a backhoe attachment that can be used to dig trenches and load debris into trucks.
  • Jackhammers: Jackhammers are tools that break up concrete and other hard materials.
  • Skid Loaders: Skid steers can break rock slabs, remove debris, and move materials quickly. Popular skid steer attachments for demo include hydraulic breakers, concrete claws, and rock buckets.
  • Dump trucks: These large trucks haul debris and broken concrete to a disposal site.


How to Hire a Local Demolition Company


When hiring a demolition contractor, choosing a reputable and experienced company is essential. Here are some tips:


  • Get estimates from different contractors.
  • Ask for references and check them.
  • Make sure the contractor is licensed and insured.
  • Get a written contract that outlines the scope of work, the cost, and the timeline for the project.


Once you have hired a demolition contractor, communicate with them regularly and ask any questions you have. Now that you know what to look for in a demolition company, take the next step and contact one. We're happy to answer any questions you have about your next project.
