Demolition services in Brunswick, GA: safe structure removal and site preparation
Professional demolition clears the way for your next building project.
From tearing down old structures to demolishing that cracked concrete pad. There's more to demolition than simply getting out the big machines. Demolition in Brunswick and the Golden Isles involves the careful process of making sure your property isn't impacted and knowing what to do with all the mess afterwards. If you're tearing down that wrecked shed, getting rid of that old commercial building, or clearing residential land to make way for new construction, you need someone experienced and knowledgeable in bringing things down.
At Golden Isles Fencing and Excavation, we approach demolition with the same organization we've established in our fencing and land grading services. We take it all into consideration. Our team is out there focused on bringing down unwanted structures in a safe manner and cleaning up the mess. We'll get your land cleaned up, leveled out, and ready for your next project.

What goes into safe and organized demolition
When it comes to demolition, a lot of homeowners believe that all it takes is swinging an excavator bucket. In reality, there's a lot that goes into a safe demolition, and one that will not lead to accidents or damage to your property. Prior to even putting any machinery on your property, we do a site evaluation. We determine the best way to take down walls and roofs at an angle that won't result in us dropping anything on the fencing or landscaping on your neighbor's property.
Then, we get to the heavy work. We control the worksite. Our operators use sound machinery to take the structure down piece by piece. We're doing the heavy lifting while sorting metal, wood, and concrete. We work in a strategic way that will ensure the work site is safe and makes the hauling process at the end go a lot faster.

Complete teardowns and targeted structural removal
Homes and other properties along the coast of Georgia are subject to storms, high humidity and of course... time. Outbuildings become unsafe and foundations start to fail. We specialize in full residential and light commercial tear downs. Got a rotted out barn? A faded out mobile home? A caved in deck? We'll tear it into pieces and load it in our trucks. We also remove old driveways and patios and footings that are holding you back from that new landscaping design.
Tearing something down is one thing... and we don't just demolish and walk away. We specialize in debris removal. Our small load hauling and full-scale debris removal can haul away all that shattered concrete and splintered wood. When we're done you have a totally empty dirt lot.
Our step by step guide to clearing your property
We want our property owners to understand what's going on during the teardown process. We have a strict procedure that allows for a neat, safe job site.
- Site assessment and utility marking. We will go over the structure and have the city come out to put stakes in the ground for all the underground water, gas and power lines before we begin to dig, or break ground.
- Securing the work zone. We set up borders to keep everyone and all pets away from the falling material and moving machinery.
- Controlled teardown. We systematically take the building down with excavators and skid steers, so that we are safely taking the roof and walls down.
- Loading and hauling debris. We scoop and load our trucks with the broken material. We haul off the material and make sure it goes to the appropriate local disposals.
- Final inspection and cleanup. We rake the dirt and make the tire marks smooth. We walk you through the property to make sure it's completely cleared.

We do residential and light commercial teardowns like old sheds, detached garages, mobile homes, barn structures, collapsed decks, etc. Anything on your property you need taken down, we can get the equipment to take it down.
We don't just leave the mess. When we knock down the structure, we put the debris in our trucks and trailers. Then we take all the splintered wood, warped metal, and roof material to proper disposal locations in Glynn County.
Yes, removal of concrete is a big deal for our demolition. We rip up cracked concrete pads, old brick footings, etc. with the big machines and pulverize. Then pile up the big chunks to get rid of.
When we demolish buildings you'll have dust. Especially with the dry weather along coastal Georgia. We try our best to keep things clean. After the building is demolished we rake and clean out the smaller debris. Leaving you with a clean dirt lot.
You usually need to get a permit from the city or county to do structural teardowns. The requirements will vary, based on the size of the structure and the location of your property. We'll make sure that you understand exactly what paperwork is needed locally prior to us rolling out our machines.
Skid steers and the excavators are heavy and are going to leave tracks in the grass and dirt. But since we do land grading too, we smooth out the tire tracks and level the soil for you before we leave. We fix up the area we've worked in.
All utilities are to be disconnected by the various utility companies before any demolition takes place. The water lines, gas lines and electrical lines all need to be completely shut off and capped. This is to ensure the safety of our workers, as well as your property.
Absolutely. That's our bread and butter. We'll coordinate the demolition, site prep, etc. After hauling the trash away, we can deliver new dirt, grade your lot, make drainage corrections, etc to prepare for your next project.
