What Is General Demolition?
Versatile Solutions for Every Type of Tear-Down
General demolition refers to the controlled removal of all or part of a structure. This can include everything from tearing down an old home or commercial building to removing interior elements during a renovation. It requires a clear understanding of the structure’s design, materials, utilities, and surrounding property.
At R & M, our demolition services cover a wide range of needs:
Full House Demolition
Interior Demolition / Gutting
Garage and Shed Demolition
Selective Structural Removal
Concrete Slab & Foundation Removal
Mobile Home and Trailer Demolition
Demolition for Renovations or Additions
Whether you need to start over from the ground up or remove just one portion of a building, we’ve got you covered.
Our Approach to Demolition
Carefully Planned. Safely Executed. Fully Cleaned.
Every demolition project starts with a well-thought-out plan. Here’s how our process ensures a clean, safe, and successful result:
1. Consultation and Site Assessment
We begin with a detailed walkthrough to assess the structure, identify risks (like asbestos or unstable materials), and determine the best course of action.
2. Permitting and Utilities Coordination
We handle all required permitting, including notifying local municipalities. We also coordinate with utility companies to ensure proper disconnection of water, power, and gas lines.
3. Preparation and Safety Measures
From dust control to fencing and signage, we take every precaution to protect surrounding properties and maintain a safe environment for workers and neighbors.
4. Demolition Execution
Using professional-grade equipment and precise methods, we begin demolition with minimal disruption. Whether removing walls, ceilings, or entire structures, we work with care and speed.
5. Debris Removal and Cleanup
We don’t just tear things down—we clean them up too. All debris is hauled away, sorted for recycling when possible, and your site is left clean and ready for the next phase.
