Demolition Services In Weaverville, NC

Demolition services in Weaverville: who to call first

Buncombe County Permits and Inspections serves the Town of Weaverville under contract, and its permits page sends demolition questions to the Asheville-Buncombe Air Quality Agency. That agency is the one to ask about what has to happen before a building comes down. The town's planning department handles zoning permits if you are rebuilding.

Utilities have to be shut off and disconnected before the machine starts. We go through that list with you at the estimate, so the start date does not slip.

Teardowns for a new house

When an old house comes down so a new one can go up, the demolition is really the first step of site prep. We remove the structure, the foundation and the concrete, fill and compact the hole, and grade the lot so the builder starts on firm ground.

Because the same crew does both, there is no gap between the teardown and grading and site prep. Weaverville sits about 9 miles north of downtown Asheville, and most of these lots are on sloping ground, so the regrade matters as much as the teardown.

Outbuildings on acreage

Old barns, sheds and outbuildings are common on the acreage around Weaverville. Some are collapsing, some are in the way of a new homesite. We take them down, pull any slab or footings, and haul the lot. If the area is overgrown around the building, land clearing can happen in the same visit.

Bare ground left after a teardown still needs protecting. Buncombe County's erosion rules apply to land disturbing of any size, so we keep loose soil on the lot and away from nearby branches of Reems Creek.

What you are left with

A clean, graded site with nothing left to haul. Size, construction, concrete, access and the amount of debris decide the price. Call (828) 900-1749 or send the form and Ben will come out.
