DEMOLITION SERVICES
Old barns, dilapidated structures, mobile homes, and unwanted buildings — we tear them down and clear them out. Our demolition crews handle structures of all sizes, removing everything down to grade and hauling away all debris. Your property left clean and ready for the next step.
WHAT WE DO
- Complete structure demolition
- Mobile home and trailer removal
- Foundation removal and backfill
- Full debris hauling and disposal
Old Structures Drag Down Property Value
A collapsing barn, an abandoned mobile home, or a derelict outbuilding doesn't just look bad — it kills resale value, creates liability, harbors snakes and rodents, and tells buyers the property hasn't been cared for. Removing it transforms how the land shows. Brokers consistently report that buyers respond better and offers come in higher on properties where derelict structures have been cleared.
OUR PROCESS
- 01
Site Walk & Structure Assessment
We walk the structure, check for hazards (asbestos, old fuel tanks, septic), confirm utility disconnects, and review what 'done' looks like — slab removal, backfill, grade.
- 02
Permits & Utility Disconnects
Where required, we pull demolition permits. Power, water, and gas have to be confirmed disconnected before any structural work begins.
- 03
Hazardous Material Handling
Asbestos, lead paint, fuel tanks, and septic systems get handled per state and county regs. We coordinate testing and abatement when needed.
- 04
Structural Demolition
Excavator with shear or grapple takes the structure down systematically. Materials separated as we go — metal one pile, wood another, concrete another.
- 05
Foundation, Slab & Sub-Surface
Slabs broken and removed. Foundations dug out. Old septic tanks pumped and crushed in place or removed. Holes backfilled with clean fill.
- 06
Site Cleanup & Final Grade
Every nail, screw, and chunk of debris hauled off. Site graded smooth, ready for grass, building, or sale photos.
STRUCTURE TYPES & TYPICAL DEMO COST
Every structure is different, but here's what to expect for common Hill Country property demo work.
| Option | Typical Cost | Time | What's Included |
|---|---|---|---|
| Single-Wide Mobile Home | $3,000–$7,000 | 1–2 days | Tear down, debris haul, disconnect, slab/blocks removed |
| Double-Wide Mobile Home | $5,000–$10,000 | 2–3 days | Same as single-wide, larger debris volume |
| Old Barn (Wood) | $4,000–$12,000 | 1–3 days | Tear down, separate metal/wood, haul debris, backfill holes |
| Metal Barn or Shop | $5,000–$15,000 | 2–4 days | Cut down, salvage metal where possible, slab assessment |
| Concrete Foundation Removal | $2,500–$8,000 | 1–3 days | Break, load, haul concrete; backfill with clean fill |
| Multi-Building Site Cleanup | $15,000–$50,000+ | 1–3 weeks | Multiple structures, septic, debris from years of accumulation |
* 2024–2025 estimates. Asbestos, complex utility disconnects, and difficult access can affect cost.
WHAT DRIVES THE COST
Every Hill Country property is different. Here's what affects pricing on this kind of work — and what we look at when we walk your land.
Structure Size & Type
Square footage, number of stories, and construction material (wood, metal, masonry) all drive demo time and equipment needs.
Hazardous Materials
Asbestos, lead paint, old fuel tanks, and abandoned septic systems require specialized handling that adds cost.
Debris Volume & Haul Distance
More debris means more truck loads. Properties far from a landfill or recycling center carry higher disposal cost.
Foundation Work
Slab and foundation removal adds significant time and equipment use compared to above-grade demo only.
Site Access
Tight access for excavators and dump trucks adds equipment-positioning time and may require alternate approaches.
Permits & Inspections
Some counties require demolition permits. Where required, we handle the paperwork — but the time and fees add to the project.
