Demolition
Safe, controlled demolition for structures, interiors, and site clearing.
About This Service
365 Builders provides professional demolition services across Texas — from complete structure teardowns and interior gut-outs to selective demolition and site clearing. We handle permitting, debris removal, and environmental compliance to keep your project on track and code-compliant.
Types of Demolition Services
Demolition isn't one-size-fits-all. Full structural demolition takes down an entire building — residential or commercial — down to the slab or footing. Interior demolition (gut-out) removes everything inside a structure while leaving the exterior shell intact, which is common for commercial remodels and fire damage rebuilds. Selective demolition removes specific elements — a wall, a deck, an HVAC system — without disturbing surrounding areas. 365 Builders handles all three types, with careful planning to protect adjacent structures and utilities throughout the process.
The Demolition Process
Every demolition project starts with pre-demolition planning: utility disconnections, hazardous material assessments, permit procurement, and site safety setup. For older structures, we coordinate asbestos and lead paint testing and abatement before any demolition begins. Once cleared, we use the right equipment — from hand tools for selective interior work to excavators for full teardowns — to complete the demo safely and efficiently. All debris is sorted for recycling where possible, and the site is left graded and clean for whatever comes next.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you handle hazardous material abatement?
We coordinate asbestos and lead paint abatement through certified specialists when older structures require it before demolition. Safety and environmental compliance are always priorities.
What happens to demolition debris?
We handle all debris removal and disposal. We recycle materials where possible (concrete, metal, wood) and ensure proper disposal of all waste in compliance with local regulations.
How much does demolition cost in Texas?
Residential house demolition typically costs $8,000–$20,000 for a standard single-story home, depending on size, construction type, and debris disposal costs. Interior gut-outs for commercial remodels range from $2,000–$15,000+. Selective demolition is typically priced by scope. Contact 365 Builders for a free demo estimate.
How long does a demolition project take?
A residential demolition typically takes 1–3 days for the teardown, with an additional day for debris removal and site cleanup. Interior commercial gut-outs vary by size and scope. Pre-demolition hazmat testing and permitting can add 1–3 weeks before work begins.
Do you handle demolition permits?
Yes. Most Texas municipalities require demolition permits, and utilities must be disconnected before work begins. We manage the permit process, utility disconnect coordination, and any required inspections so the project moves forward without delays.
