We offer residential, commercial and interior demolition, interior gut-outs, and concrete removal and hauling across Fresno, Clovis and the surrounding Central Valley.
We help coordinate the demolition permit through the City of Fresno (or the City of Clovis or Fresno County, depending on the parcel), asbestos inspection and San Joaquin Valley Air District Rule 4002 notification where it applies, and USA North 811 utility locates. Requirements vary by project, so we confirm them for your address.
Yes. From home teardowns and kitchen or basement tear-outs to commercial interior strip-outs and structural demolition, we work on projects of many sizes.
Where facilities are available, we separate concrete, metal and other recyclable materials so they can be diverted from landfill. Remaining debris goes to permitted disposal facilities.
Timelines depend on permits, utility disconnects and any asbestos work, which often take longer than the demolition itself. Call us and we will outline realistic steps for your property.
Whenever possible. Reach out with your project details and we will do our best to fit you in, while still completing the required safety and permit steps.
