Our Commercial Demolition Process
Commercial jobs live or die on planning. Here is how we run them:
1. Site walk and written scope. We walk the space with you or your GC, document exactly what is coming out, and put it in writing. No ambiguity, no surprises.
2. Scheduling around your operations. Many commercial demos happen nights and weekends so your business keeps running. We build the schedule around you, not the other way around.
3. Protection of common areas. Hallways, elevators, lobbies, and neighboring suites get floor protection and dust barriers before work starts.
4. Phased demolition. Large spaces get demoed in phases so debris never piles up and the site stays workable.
5. Debris hauling and documentation. Everything leaves the site on schedule, and we provide the documentation your landlord or property manager needs.
Working Around Your Business
Downtime costs money, so we plan commercial demo to minimize it. After-hours and weekend work is standard for occupied buildings. We control dust with barriers and keep noise to agreed windows when neighboring tenants are operating. If your buildout has a hard open date, tell us upfront and we will work backward from it. Restaurant and retail demos often run on tight timelines between lease signing and grand opening, and we are used to that pressure.
Permits and Landlord Approvals
Most commercial interior demolition in Broward County requires a permit, and your landlord or property management company will almost always require a certificate of insurance, a work schedule, and sometimes a list of every worker on site. Start this paperwork early. We provide our insurance certificate and project documentation to building management before mobilization so approvals do not hold up your start date.
Common Commercial Demo Mistakes to Avoid
- Starting demo before permits are issued. A stop-work order from the city shuts down your whole project and can delay you for weeks. Permits first, hammers second.
- Not coordinating the freight elevator. In multi-story buildings, debris has to leave through a service elevator on a schedule. Showing up without a reservation means your crew stands around.
- Underestimating debris volume. Commercial spaces generate far more debris than they look like they will. Suspended ceilings, partition walls, and flooring across thousands of square feet add up fast. We size the hauling plan to the real volume.
- Skipping the hazmat check. Older commercial buildings can have asbestos in ceiling tiles, insulation, or flooring. Testing before demo is cheap insurance against a very expensive problem.
Commercial Demolition FAQ
Can you work nights and weekends?
Yes. A large share of our commercial work happens outside business hours so your operations and neighboring tenants are not disrupted.
Do you handle hazardous materials?
We identify suspect materials and coordinate certified testing and abatement through licensed specialists. We do not cut corners on hazmat.
Will you provide documentation for my landlord?
Yes. Certificates of insurance, work schedules, and completion documentation are standard on our commercial jobs.
How fast can you mobilize?
Call us and we will usually have someone on site for a walkthrough within a day or two. Emergency timelines are part of commercial work and we plan for them.
Restaurant and Food Service Demolition
Restaurant demos have quirks that office buildouts do not. Commercial kitchens have grease buildup in hoods, ducts, and walls that makes demo messier and smellier than standard interior work. Walk-in coolers, floor drains, and gas lines all need proper disconnection. Health department requirements may apply to the new buildout, so the demo has to leave the space ready for the next round of inspections. We have demoed restaurants and commercial kitchens across Broward County and know how to handle the greasy, heavy, awkward parts efficiently.
Keeping Neighboring Tenants Happy
In multi-tenant buildings, your demo affects everyone around you. We keep shared hallways clean and protected, stick to agreed noise windows, and schedule debris hauling so freight elevators are not blocked during other tenants' busy hours. A little coordination prevents complaints to building management, and complaints are what slow projects down. If your property manager has specific rules, send them our way before we start and we will build them into the plan.
