Demolition & Site Clearing
Sometimes the first step of a project is removing what is already there.
Demolition and site clearing can involve taking down a small structure, breaking out concrete, removing debris piles, and hauling material off site. It frequently leads directly into site preparation or grading once the area is open.
Typical situations
- Removing an old shed, barn, garage, or mobile home
- Breaking out and hauling away concrete slabs, pads, or old pavement
- Clearing debris left from a previous project or storm
- Removing abandoned foundations or buried material
- Opening a site before new construction begins
What contractors consider
The size and construction of what is being removed, disposal and hauling requirements, access for equipment and trucks, proximity to structures that stay, and what the site should look like when the work is finished.
Demolition can involve utility disconnects, permits, inspections, and material handling rules that differ by location and structure. Those determinations belong to the contractor and the appropriate local authorities.
Describing the job
Approximate dimensions, construction materials, and photos give a contractor a much clearer sense of the work than a general description alone.
