Demolition is how a property gets its ground back. We take down houses, mobile homes, sheds, barns and garages around Burgaw and across Pender County. Old concrete slabs and cracked driveways come out too. Residential demolition is most of what we do. We break the structure apart with an excavator, load the debris into our dump truck, and haul it off site. What stays behind is bare, level dirt you can build on or sell.
We have worked out of Burgaw since 2013, and the same person who answers the phone runs the machines. That matters on a demolition, where one wrong push does real damage. Once the building is gone, the same equipment handles the grading and dirt work. We can also handle the excavation for whatever you are putting there next. Call for a free estimate and we will come look at the building first. You get a real number before anything comes down.

Every house demolition starts well before the machine shows up. Power, water, gas and septic have to be shut off and capped at the source. Your county inspections office issues the demolition permit, and it usually has to be in hand first. We can tell you what that office normally asks for before you call them. Once the paperwork clears, the excavator works the building down in sections rather than dropping it at once. That keeps the debris in a pile we can load, and keeps the mess inside your property line.
The dump truck runs loads out while the excavator keeps working. Roofing, framing, drywall and old appliances all leave the property. If the house sits on a slab, we break it up and pull it out with the same machine. Block piers and footings come out the same way, then we backfill the hole and rake the pad flat. Most people want the lot ready to sell or rebuild, so that is how we leave it. Old stumps in the way get handled with stump grinding.
Mobile home demolition is its own kind of job. An old single-wide or double-wide mixes metal, wood, insulation and vinyl together. It comes apart differently than a stick-built house, so we strip what we can and cut the body down. The steel frame and axles get separated from the rest of the debris. Pender County has plenty of these sitting on family land, empty for years. Most owners call once the trailer stops being worth repairs. Hurricane season puts more of them out of use every year.
Where the debris goes matters more than most people expect. Some construction and demolition landfills will not take a whole mobile home. The load has to go to a site that will, so we line up disposal before the job starts. Tie-downs, blocks, skirting and the old set of steps come out with it. If a septic tank or a well sits on the property, tell us early. Those carry their own county rules. The old pad gets leveled once the trailer is gone, so what you keep is usable ground.
Plenty of demolition jobs are smaller than a whole house. A leaning barn, a collapsed shed, a detached garage, a cracked concrete driveway. We take those out the same way, with an excavator and the dump truck. Broken concrete is heavy, so a slab or driveway often costs more to haul than its size suggests. Tin and old lumber get separated as we go, which cuts what has to be hauled. If you are pulling a driveway to pour a new one, we can leave the base ready for concrete.
Ground conditions decide a lot down here. Sandy coastal-plain soil loads easy, but low spots hold water and a loaded truck sinks into them. We read the weather and the ground before bringing heavy equipment onto a soft lot. If you are comparing demolition companies near me, ask each one who hauls the debris and where it goes. A demolition contractor who owns the dump truck can answer that on the spot. Call and we will come look at what you want gone, and the estimate is free.
From the first walk of the property to the last pass of the blade, here is exactly how it goes.
Call (910) 512-9578 or send the form. Describe the land, what is on it, and what you want it to become. Photos help.
We meet you on the property, look at the growth, the ground and the access, and talk through the right way to do the job.
The estimate is free and comes from seeing the land. You know the price and the plan before any machine shows up.
The machines show up when the ground is ready, the work gets finished, and the property is left clean and usable.
