What We Take Down

Full-Service Demolition for Trees and Structures

Our demolition services go well beyond cutting down a single tree. We handle complex tree removal for hazardous, dead, and leaning trees near homes, fences, and power lines. We also tear down old sheds, wooden fences, and entire houses, hauling away every bit of debris so your property is clean and ready for whatever comes next. Whether you need controlled tree demolition in a tight yard or a full structural teardown on a commercial lot, our crew brings the right equipment and the right expertise to get it done safely.

How We Work

Precision and Safety on Every High-Risk Job

High-risk tree demolition requires more than a chainsaw and a truck. Our team uses cranes, bucket trucks, bulldozers, excavators, and tracked man-lifts to handle removals in tight spaces, near structures, and close to high-voltage lines. We use negative rigging techniques to control weight distribution during complex tree removal, protecting your home, vehicles, and surrounding property throughout the process. Once the work is done, we handle complete debris haul-off so the only thing missing from your yard is the hazard that brought us out.

Your Questions, Answered

Frequently Asked Questions About Our Demolition Services

  • What types of structures can you demolish besides trees?

    Beyond tree demolition and removal, we take down old sheds, wooden fences, and entire houses. Every job includes full debris haul-off, so your property is left clean and ready for your next project. If you have a structure you need removed and are not sure whether it falls within our scope, just give us a call and we can talk through the details.
  • How do you safely remove a tree that is leaning close to my house?

    Jobs like that require controlled tree demolition techniques rather than a straightforward fell. Our crew uses negative rigging to manage the weight and direction of each section as it comes down, keeping the load away from your roof, walls, and surrounding structures. We also bring in cranes and bucket trucks when the situation calls for it. Every removal near a structure is planned carefully before the first cut is made, and our team is fully licensed and insured throughout the process.
  • Is debris removal included after a demolition job?

    Yes, complete debris haul-off is part of every demolition job we perform. Once the tree, shed, fence, or structure is down, we clear the site so nothing is left behind. Clients consistently note that aside from the missing structure, they can hardly tell we were there. That level of cleanup is something we take seriously on every job, whether it is a single tree removal or a full property teardown.
  • How far in advance do I need to book a demolition job?

    We are typically booked 2 to 4 weeks out for standard scheduled work. Once our crew arrives on-site, most jobs are completed within 1 to 2 days. If you are dealing with a hazardous tree or an urgent structural situation, we maintain 24/7 availability for emergency response and will do our best to get to you as quickly as possible. Reach out by call or text and we can give you a realistic timeline based on your specific situation.
  • Do you offer any discounts on demolition services?

    Yes. We offer a 10% discount for military members and veterans as a way to honor those who serve our community. We also have a 10% referral back program: if you refer a neighbor or friend who books a job with us, you get 10% back. These programs can be combined in some cases for meaningful savings. Just mention your eligibility when you reach out for your free estimate and we will make sure it is applied to your quote.
  • What equipment do you bring to a complex tree removal or structural demolition?

    Our fleet includes cranes, bucket trucks, bulldozers, excavators, and tracked man-lifts. The specific equipment we bring depends on site conditions, including proximity to power lines, nearby structures, and the size of what needs to come down. For precision tree demolition in tight spaces, we often use tracked man-lifts and negative rigging to maintain control throughout the removal. We assess every site individually to make sure we arrive with exactly what the job requires.
  • How much does a demolition job typically cost?

    Pricing depends on the scope and complexity of the work. As a general reference, our day rate runs approximately $4,400 for a full day and $2,400 for a half day. Factors like proximity to power lines, the size and condition of what is being removed, and site access all affect the final quote. The best way to get an accurate number is to contact us for a free, no-obligation estimate. We will evaluate your specific situation and give you a clear, honest price before any work begins.
