Do you tear down whole commercial buildings?
Yes. Large-scale building teardowns are part of what we do, along with partial demolition where only part of a structure comes down.
Can you demo next to other buildings?
Yes. It takes planning and controlled methods: protective barriers, the right equipment and a set order of work so neighboring property is not damaged.

How do I get a price?
Call 515-480-3822 or send the quote form. Estimates are free, and we get them back within a week.
How is demolition priced?
By the size of the structure, the materials, site access, the labor needed and how much debris has to be hauled. Hazardous materials or tricky structural conditions can add cost. A site walk gives you an accurate number with no surprises.
Do you handle asbestos?
We handle many materials and follow proper disposal rules, but materials like asbestos can require a specialized abatement company. If your job has them, we will point you in the right direction.
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes. Licensed and insured, BBB A+ rated, and our crews are trained to OSHA standards.
Do you work Saturdays?
Yes, by appointment. Regular hours are Monday to Saturday, 7:00 am to 5:00 pm.
