For our anyone planning on cleaning out their property, whether it be a late family member’s estate, the old shed in the backyard, or some good old-fashioned interior demolition for that warehouse space you want to turn into an office building, here is a short list of helpful and insightful tips to give Maryland homeowners and property owners a head-start when it comes to demolition and clean outs:

Safety First

Safety always comes first when preparing for demolition, so we prepare accordingly. The most important part of the pre-demolition process is to make sure the condition of the structure has been professionally surveyed to indicate the possibility of unplanned collapse of the framing, floors, and walls. We are Licensed and Insured - MHIC License No. #111514.

Remove all Belongings

Before we begin the demolition process, you should know that you won’t want to wait until the day of the demolition to start packing your belongings. Sorting, packing, and removing your belongings can be a longer process than some might realize. Before demolition, we recommend you plan a time in advance to remove your belongings from the structure and away from the demolition area.

Close Off Area

Sometimes, only certain parts of a building are being demolished rather than the entire thing. If that is the case, you want to block off the area that is going to be demolished. This doesn’t mean simply just closing the doors. You want to seal off any vents and windows as well to make sure that dust and debris doesn’t get into other parts of the building.

Make Arrangements

If you are demolishing your home or a part of it, you want to make sure you have other living arrangements. A demolition zone is no place for you or your family, so you want to find a hotel or other place to stay while the process is taking place. If a commercial building is being demolished, be sure to find an alternative workspace for the employees.
