Why Hire a Professional Demolition Contractor?

Demolition work carries serious safety, legal, and environmental responsibilities. Working with a professional ensures:


  • Safe removal techniques to protect surrounding property

  • Proper equipment and trained operators for tight or unstable conditions

  • Dust and debris control during demolition

  • Code-compliant waste removal

  • Accurate grading for site reuse or resale

  • Avoidance of fines or violations from improper disposal or unpermitted work

Mountain Excavating LLC manages the entire process — so you don’t have to coordinate multiple crews or risk cutting corners.

Responsible Disposal and Environmental Compliance

Demolition creates waste — and that waste must be managed properly. We comply with local and state disposal requirements by:


  • Separating recyclable materials like concrete and metal when possible

  • Hauling debris to licensed disposal or transfer stations

  • Avoiding illegal dumping under all circumstances

  • Keeping the worksite clean and safe during all phases

  • Using erosion control methods on disturbed land post-demo

We respect the land — and we leave it better than we found it.

Equipment and Tools We Use

We use the right equipment for safe and efficient demolition:


  • Excavators with grapple and demo attachments

  • Track loaders for pushing, lifting, and hauling

  • Skid steers with buckets or forks

  • Dump trailers for waste removal

  • Hand tools for precision takedown

  • Safety fencing and dust control materials

Our equipment is maintained in-house for responsiveness and reliability.

Our Demolition Process

Our crews work carefully to avoid damage to adjacent properties, trees, or utility systems.



Our approach balances efficiency with caution:

Site Review

We inspect the building, access points, terrain, and utilities.

Utility Coordination

We confirm disconnection of water, electric, gas, and septic lines before any demo begins.

 Demolition Execution

Structures are brought down using controlled methods with excavators, loaders, and hand tools where needed.

 Debris Removal

We haul debris using dump trailers and dispose of material at approved facilities.

Grading and Clean-Up

We rough grade the area to ensure proper drainage and a clean finish.
