What we do

Teardown to rebuild

One company, multiple services, from teardown to rebuild

Most demolition jobs are the first step in something else. A garage comes down so a new one can go up. A kitchen gets gutted so it can be rebuilt. Contracting Pros handles both halves, including the new structure that goes up after.

A teardown starts with a site visit and a free estimate. Utilities come next, since gas, water and sewer have to be shut off and capped. Michigan counts wrecking a structure as excavation, so a MISS DIG 811 dig notice typically goes in first. Then we pull the demolition permit with Bay City or whichever township covers the property.

Commercial buildings and larger structures typically need an asbestos survey and a state notification first. We handle that step and the paperwork that goes with it. When the structure is down, the debris leaves and the hole gets filled, compacted and seeded. We work across the Great Lakes Bay Region and can stay on as the general contractor for the rebuild.

How We Work

How a Job With Contracting Pros Runs

From the first call or text to the final walkthrough of the finished work, here is how it goes.

1

Call or text

Tell us what needs to come down and where the property sits. Call or text (501) 520-1783 and we will set a time to look.

2

Site visit and estimate

We look at the structure, the access and what sits around it. Then you get a free estimate for the demolition.

3

Permits and prep

Utilities get shut off and capped, and a MISS DIG 811 dig notice typically goes in. We pull the demolition permit and the historic district approval where Bay City calls for one. An asbestos survey and state notification get ordered when the rules cover the building.

4

The teardown

The structure comes down with our equipment, in pieces where the site is tight. Debris gets loaded out as the work goes.

5

Cleanup and walkthrough

The hole gets filled, compacted and topped with soil and seed. Then we go over the finished site with you before we leave.

Frequently Asked Questions

Questions About Demolition and Contracting?

The questions Bay City area property owners ask us most. If yours is not here, call or text and we will answer it.

Call (501) 520-1783

How is a demolition job priced?
Price follows the size of the structure and what it is built from. Access matters too, since a house wedged between two others is harder than a garage on an open lot. Concrete removal, filling the hole and debris disposal also move the number. Estimates are free once we have seen the property.
Do you charge for an estimate?
No. Estimates are free across our working area around Bay City. Call or text (501) 520-1783 with the address and what needs to come down.
What areas do you cover?
We are based in Bay City and work roughly 45 miles out. That covers Bay, Saginaw, Midland, Arenac, Tuscola, Isabella and Genesee counties. Saginaw, Midland, Flint, Mount Pleasant, Frankenmuth and Caro all sit inside it. See the full list of towns we cover to check your address.
Do I need a permit to tear down a building?
Usually yes, and we pull it for you. Bay City issues demolition permits through its building department, and the townships around it run their own process. The application asks whether every utility was notified, and the gas, water and sewer lines have to be capped. Michigan counts wrecking a structure as excavation, so a MISS DIG 811 notice typically goes in three business days ahead.
Is an asbestos survey required before demolition?
It depends on the building. Michigan's asbestos rules cover commercial, industrial and public buildings, plus apartments with five or more units. A privately owned house of four units or less is generally outside those rules. That changes if it comes down for a public or commercial project, and we file the notification when it does.
What happens to the debris?
It leaves with us. The material gets loaded out and taken to a disposal site as the teardown goes. Concrete, foundations and slabs come out the same way. What is left is a clean lot, filled and compacted.
How long does a demolition take?
The teardown itself is often the short part of the job. A garage or shed usually goes faster than a house with a full foundation. The bigger clock sits at the front end, with the permit, the utility disconnects and the MISS DIG notice. We give you a timeline with the estimate.
Do you handle commercial demolition and build back after?
Yes to both. We take down small commercial buildings and do interior demo for businesses. The same company builds back with new construction, additions, remodeling, decks and fences, framing and drywall. We also do land clearing and hazardous tree removal when a lot needs opening up first.
