How It’s Done: Commercial Demolition

January 6, 2020

As Baltimore’s go-to junk removal specialists, this is how Sanford & Son does commercial demolition.

If you’re a Baltimore commercial property owner looking for reliable commercial demolition and junk removal services, the team at Sanford & Son is here for you. We provide Baltimore (and the surrounding areas) with reliable and trustworthy commercial demolition and junk removal service. And we’ve been doing it for over 20 years, making us one of the most reliable demolition companies around.

But how does all the hard work get done?

The way we approach a commercial demolition project isn’t the same approach to take when starting a residential demolition project. Commercial demolition is typically performed on corporate buildings and larger structures that are designed for business use. Residential demolition is performed with single-family homes, garages, and apartment buildings.

From the simple interior demolition projects, to concrete and brick demolition, to large-scale hauling and demolition projects, each demolition job is different in its own way.

But since commercial demolition projects are performed on larger structures, each project could call for more heavy-duty tools to handle the job.

Interior Demolition

When it comes to interior demolition for a commercial building, hand-held tools are most commonly used. Small, mobile, powerful, and easy to handle; crow bars, sledge hammers, screw guns, and saws are the best tools for interior demolition projects. Small, hand-held tools are a go-to for interior projects to handle technical and selective demolition. Since commercial buildings tend to have higher ceilings, electric lifts are often used for interior demolition projects.

Concrete and Brick

For typical concrete and brick demolition projects, specialized tools are required to get the job done safely and effectively. And when it comes to commercial demolition, we typically use specialized concrete saws, jack hammers, and demolition hammers. Since commercial buildings (especially older structures) are known to have been built with lots of concrete and brick materials to break down,

When dealing with concrete and brick demolition, its important to understand that there could be an overwhelming amount of debris left over from the project

Large-Scale Demolition

When the job requires more than the typical hand tools, we bring in the heavy-machinery. When sledge hammers and screw guns won’t be enough to properly demolish a commercial structure, that’s when its time for our Bobcats, mini excavators, and grapple buckets to get the job done.

While going through all the typed of commercial demolition work we perform, it’s also important to be aware of the hazardous materials released in the air during a demolition project—commercial and residential.

At the end of the day, when it comes to commercial demolition, the logistics, equipment, and all-around dangers of the job differ from residential demolition projects in various ways. As you could see, we take our demolition seriously and come prepared for each project, accordingly. It’s more complicated than knocking down walls and ceilings and hauling off the junk. For safe, quality, quick, commercial demolition work, the Sanford & Son Commercial Demolition team has been providing Baltimore with reliable and trustworthy service for over 20 years.
