About Our Demolition Service

Whether you're removing an old structure to make way for new construction, clearing a damaged building, or demolishing concrete and hardscape, our team handles the complete process — from site assessment through debris removal — in coordination with a licensed Florida contractor who pulls the required permits.

Safety is our top priority. Our crews follow strict safety protocols, manage dust and debris control, and coordinate with utility companies and the licensed contractor of record to ensure all services are properly disconnected and the work is fully compliant before demolition begins.

Every project ends with complete debris removal and site cleanup. We don't leave rubble behind. Your site will be clean, level, and ready for the next phase — typically the excavation, grading, or foundation prep our crew handles directly under our own scope of work.

Safe Demo Guarantee

We coordinate with the licensed contractor on every demo project, so the permit is properly filed, the work is fully compliant, and 100% of debris is removed. No rubble left behind, guaranteed.

Demolition & Concrete Removal

Safe structure demolition and complete debris removal.

Understanding the Demolition Process in Florida

Demolition in Florida involves more than swinging a wrecking ball. Local regulations in Sarasota and Manatee counties require permits, asbestos inspections for structures built before 1980, utility disconnection verification, and proper debris disposal documentation. Navigating these requirements correctly is essential to avoid fines, delays, and liability issues.

Our demolition projects start with a thorough pre-demolition assessment. We inspect the structure, identify any hazardous materials, and coordinate utility disconnection with local providers. The licensed Florida contractor we work with pulls the required permits and serves as the contractor of record, while our crew handles the equipment, hauling, and site preparation work.

After demolition, our crews don't just leave a pile of rubble. We remove 100% of debris, sort recyclable materials like concrete and metal, and leave your site graded and ready for the next phase of construction. This complete approach means you're not left coordinating multiple companies to clean up after the demo crew — you call us, we coordinate the licensed contractor, and the project is delivered as one team.

Types of Demolition Projects We Handle

From single-family home teardowns to commercial structure removal, our demolition capabilities cover the full range of projects in Southwest Florida. Structural work is performed under our licensed contractor partner, while our crew brings the equipment, operators, and cleanup capacity. We also handle non-structural and specialized demolition directly under our own scope — including pool removal and fill, concrete slab removal, interior selective demolition, driveway removal, and outbuilding teardowns.

Pool demolition is one of our most common residential requests. Whether you're removing a pool to reclaim yard space or demolishing an old pool as part of a home renovation, we handle the complete process including draining, demolition, debris removal, fill material, and compaction — leaving you with a level, usable yard.

Large-Scale Debris & Material Handling

A demolition is only finished when the debris is gone — and on big or multi-structure teardowns, that's a serious volume of concrete, rubble, and material to move. We're built for it. With excavators, loaders, and our own fleet of dump trucks, we handle large-scale debris and bulk material handling in-house instead of waiting on a separate hauling company to fit you into their schedule.

That capacity is what lets us deliver demolition and site prep as one coordinated scope: the structure comes down, every load is hauled off or recycled, and the same crew rolls straight into the excavation, concrete removal, and rough grading that gets the lot ready for what's next — no gap, no second contractor, no rubble left behind.

"Good experience. They were willing to come back and make everything perfect. Very reasonable owner, fantastic communication."

"I had a residential grading and sod installation job I needed done to revive and beautify a terribly disused property. I hired Kameron Lethermon to do it and had a phenomenal experience from start to finish. Despite the small size of the job, I was treated with a level of respect and attention I’d never before received from a contractor. Kameron’s communication is unrivaled, his knowledge undeniable, and his professionalism so good that it was truly a pleasure to do business with him. The crew (Matt, Todd, and Pedro) were professional, skilled, and friendly to the point that a couple looking at the neighboring house for sale made a comment to me during a brief conversation. I whole heartedly recommend this company."

FAQ

Demolition Questions

Do I need a permit for demolition?
Yes — most demolition in Sarasota and Manatee counties requires a permit. Florida law requires that demolition permits be pulled by a properly licensed contractor (CGC, CBC, CRC, or local specialty demolition license). We work alongside a licensed Florida contractor on every demolition project — they handle the permitting and structural authorization, and our crew handles equipment, hauling, and cleanup.
Are you a licensed demolition contractor?
We are a fully insured excavation, grading, and site preparation contractor. For demolition projects, we partner with a licensed Florida demolition contractor who pulls all required permits and serves as the contractor of record. This partnership means you get the full demo + site-prep package as one coordinated team — instead of hiring and coordinating two separate companies.
How long does demolition take?
A residential structure can typically be demolished and cleared in 2-5 days depending on size, complexity, and the licensed contractor's scheduling. Commercial demolition may take longer. We provide accurate timelines in our estimate.
Do you handle asbestos or hazardous materials?
No — hazardous materials abatement requires its own state license and is not part of our scope. A pre-demolition inspection identifies any hazardous materials that must be removed by a certified abatement contractor before our work begins. We coordinate with abatement contractors when needed.
What happens to the demolition debris?
We haul all debris to licensed disposal facilities. Materials like concrete and metal are recycled when possible. The entire site is cleaned and leveled after demolition.
Can you handle large-scale debris and bulk material on big teardowns?
Yes. We run excavators, loaders, and our own fleet of dump trucks, so we handle high-volume debris and bulk material handling in-house — no waiting on a separate hauling company. That capacity lets us clear large or multi-structure sites and haul off every load of rubble, concrete, and material ourselves in one coordinated mobilization.
