What does the demolition process look like?
If you're having a structure demolished, like a home or a commercial structure, these are the basic aspects of the demolition process you should be familiar with.

Step 3: Disconnect existing services and utilities.
Step 4: Tear down the house using heavy machinery or deconstruction methods.
Step 5: Haul away the debris to the nearest landfill or recycling facility.
