What light demolition involves

Are you in the midst of new home construction or a remodeling project? Home renovation can be satisfying, but cleaning up all the construction debris that gets generated is a real mess. If you have ever been involved in a project like that, you know how much construction and demolition debris you can end up with — and it always takes more time and energy than planned.

Whether you have a dilapidated shed in the Bay Area to break down, a rotting deck to pull up, or an interior wall coming out for a kitchen remodel, our deconstruction crew will knock it down and haul it away, so your project can be completed on time.

Fencing too: if you have ever broken down an old fence you know that dealing with rusty nails and broken boards is dirty and dangerous work. Demolishing unwanted carports or broken-down garages, and then disposing of all that waste, is more than a weekend project with your pals and some beer.

How it works

1
Assess the structure
We look at what is coming down, what it is attached to, and what services run through it. Call 877-536-7941 for a Bay Area site visit.
2
Confirm scope and permits
We tell you plainly whether your job needs a Bay Area permit before we start, rather than after. Non-structural interior work usually does not; anything structural does.
3
Controlled teardown
Deconstructed rather than smashed, so material can be separated for recovery and adjacent surfaces are not damaged.
4
Loaded and hauled same day
Debris goes out as it comes down. Sorted material is diverted, the rest goes to a permitted transfer station in your county, and the site is swept.

What our customers say

“Called at 9am about a sleeper sofa stuck in a third-floor walk-up and they had it out by 2pm. No damage to the stairwell, no drama, and the price was exactly what was quoted on the phone.”

Marisol R. · San Francisco, CA

“Took down a rotten deck and hauled every board away in one day. I had two other quotes that were demo only and left me with the pile.”

Jenna T. · Danville, CA

“Cleared the shed and hauled off a pile of old fencing. Straightforward, polite, and cheaper than the skip I nearly rented.”

Tania M. · Vacaville, CA

Frequently asked questions

How much does light demolition cost in the Bay Area?

Demolition is quoted per structure, on size, height and how the debris has to come out. Critically, the teardown and the haul-away are quoted together - there is no second bill for removing the pile, which is where quotes from demolition-only contractors tend to surprise people. Call 877-536-7941 and we will come and look at it.

Do I need a permit for demolition in the Bay Area?

It depends on what is coming down. Non-structural interior work — cabinets, tile, a non-load-bearing partition — usually does not require a permit. Removing structural elements, detached structures over a certain size, or anything affecting utilities generally does. Check with the the Bay Area building department; we will tell you honestly if we think your job needs one.

What counts as "light" demolition?

Anything that does not need heavy equipment or a structural engineer. Sheds, decks, fences, carports, interior partitions, cabinets and tile all qualify. Taking down a whole house, or anything requiring an excavator, is a licensed demolition contractor's job and we will refer you.

Do you handle asbestos or lead paint?

No — these require a certified abatement contractor, and it is not a corner anyone should cut. This matters in the Bay Area because Victorian and Edwardian flats stacked three and four units deep, with garage-level storage, light wells and no elevator in most buildings. Pre-1980 buildings frequently contain both. We will identify the risk and stop rather than proceed, and we can refer you to a licensed abatement firm.

Do you take the debris away too?

Always — that is the whole point. Most demolition contractors leave the pile for you to deal with. We demo and haul in the same visit, sorting recoverable wood, metal and concrete out of the load as we go.

Can you work around a remodel in progress?

Yes. We coordinate with the Bay Area contractors regularly and can do the demolition phase, then return for construction debris removal once the trades have finished. Many builders use us for both ends of the job.
