STEP BY STEP DEMOLITION & REMOVAL

Getting rid of an old shed doesn’t have to be a stressful job. At Big Phil’s, we handle the entire process from start to finish, making it simple and mess-free. Here’s how we get it done.

Preparing the Site & Checking for Hazards

Before we start tearing things down, we clear out the space around the shed. Any loose junk, tools, or other obstacles are moved out of the way. If there’s power, gas, or water running to the shed, we disconnect it properly. Our team also checks for anything hazardous, like old wiring or asbestos. Safety comes first, so we wear gloves, boots, and hard hats to stay protected.

Removing Doors, Windows & Interior Fixtures

The first thing to go is the doors and windows. We carefully take them off using drills and pry bars. If there are shelves, cabinets, or other built-in storage inside, we take those out too. This makes the whole structure lighter and easier to bring down.

Dismantling the Roof

We always start from the top. If the shed has shingles, metal panels, or a corrugated roof, we remove those first. Then, we take apart the rafters and support beams, cutting larger sections down to make them easier to haul away. Everything is lowered safely to prevent any damage to nearby areas.

Taking Down the Walls & Frame

With the roof out of the way, we move to the walls. We work from one side to the other, pulling apart the panels and removing the framing piece by piece. If the shed is large, we secure certain sections so nothing collapses too soon.

Removing the Floor & Foundation

If the shed has a wooden floor, we pry up the panels and cut them down for easier removal. If it sits on a concrete base, we break it apart using jackhammers and haul away the chunks.

HOW MUCH DOES DECK DEMOLITION COST?

The cost of tearing down a deck depends on several factors.

Deck Size & Complexity – A small, single-level deck is quicker to remove, while larger, multi-level structures require more time and labor, which increases the cost.

Materials – Wood decks are generally easier to take apart, while concrete or composite decking can be more challenging and may need specialized tools for removal.

Accessibility – If your deck is in a tight space or attached to other structures, removal can be more difficult and may require extra steps to prevent damage to your home or landscape.

No Hidden Fees – We believe in honest pricing, so what we quote is what you pay. We’ll assess your deck and provide a clear, upfront estimate. Contact us today for a free quote and find out how we can help!

FAQS ABOUT DECK DEMOLITION

How do I know if my old deck needs to be removed?

If your old deck has rotting wood, unstable posts, or loose boards, it may be time for a teardown. Damage to the ledger board, which connects the deck to your home, can also be a safety concern. If the structure feels wobbly or shows signs of wear, replacing it with a new deck is often the best solution.

What materials do you remove during deck demolition?

We take care of all deck materials, including wood, composite decking, metal supports, and metal railings. Our team carefully dismantles everything and sorts materials for recycling or proper disposal.

Is deck demolition safe, and do I need to do anything to prepare?

Tearing down a deck requires the right safety equipment, including gloves, ear protection, and sturdy footwear. Our crew follows all local regulations and best practices to protect personal safety and your property. We break the deck into manageable pieces for removal. With our professional service, you get complete peace of mind knowing the job is done right.

How long does it take to install or demo a deck?

Time required to disassemble a deck may vary significantly depending on its size, complexity of construction and tools used. Most standard-sized decks usually take several hours to a full day for demolition while larger or more complicated structures such as those featuring multiple levels, integrated features or sturdy concrete footings may take much longer.

What safety gear should I wear during deck demolition?

It’s crucial to keep safe while tearing down a deck. Make sure you’re wearing heavy-duty gloves, safety goggles, a hard hat, and sturdy boots. Don’t forget a dust mask, too—it’ll keep you from breathing in the dust and debris.

What does it cost to remove a deck?

The price varies depending on how big your deck is and how complex the job is. Things like removing concrete footages can add to the cost. We’ll give you a clear quote upfront so there are no surprises.

Can I take down a deck by myself, or should I get a pro?

You might manage a small or simple deck on your own, but for anything big or complicated, it’s wise to hire a pro like Big Phil’s. This way, you ensure everything is up to code and safe. We’ve got the tools and expertise to get the job done right.

What should I do to get ready for deck demolition?

Start by clearing any furniture or personal stuff from the deck area. Make sure there’s a clear path for the demolition crew. Also, check any utilities like gas, water, or electric lines that are near your deck—are they turned off and marked? That’s important for safety.

What’s the best tool for taking down a wood deck?

When it comes to breaking down a wood deck, a pry bar and a reciprocating saw are your best friends. Use the pry bar for lifting up the deck boards. The reciprocating saw is great for slicing through stubborn nails and screws, as well as tough wood. Sometimes, a circular saw might come in handy too.
