Full Building Demolition

Residential Structure Removal
Demolition of residential structures, garages, outbuildings, and accessory structures in preparation for new construction or land clearing.

Our Process
How We Manage Your Demolition Project
Commercial demolition requires careful planning, regulatory compliance, and experienced project management. Here's how Wolf handles it from first call to cleared site.
01
Free Project Consultation No cost
We visit your site, assess the scope of work, and provide a detailed written estimate. We'll walk you through the full process, timeline, and any regulatory requirements that apply to your project.
02
Hazardous Materials Survey Required by law
Before any demolition, our AHERA-certified inspector conducts an asbestos and lead survey. This is a legal requirement in Oregon and essential for protecting workers, neighbors, and the environment.
03
Permitting & Notifications
We handle all required permits and regulatory notifications — including Oregon DEQ asbestos notification, local building permits, and utility disconnection coordination — before work begins.
04
Site Preparation & Safety Setup
We establish safety perimeters, disconnect utilities, protect adjacent structures, and set up debris containment before a single wall comes down. Safety is non-negotiable on every Wolf job site.
05
Demolition Execution
Our experienced crew executes demolition efficiently and safely — whether that's selective interior work or full structural tear-down — using the right equipment for your project's scope.
06
Debris Removal & Site Clearing
All debris is removed, sorted, and responsibly disposed of or recycled. We leave your site clean, level, and ready for whatever comes next — whether that's new construction or sale.
What We Handle
Full-Scope Demolition Services
Wolf is a one-stop demolition contractor — we handle every aspect of the project so you don't need to manage multiple subcontractors.
Permitting
We pull all required demolition permits and handle DEQ asbestos notifications so your project is fully compliant from day one.
Utility Coordination
We coordinate disconnection of electricity, gas, water, and sewer before demolition begins — safely and in the correct sequence.
Hazmat Inspection
In-house AHERA-certified asbestos inspection and lead testing — no need to hire a separate inspector before you can start work.
Demolition Execution
Experienced crew and appropriate equipment for projects of any size — from interior selective work to full structural demolition.
Debris & Recycling
All debris hauled and disposed of responsibly — with salvageable materials separated for recycling or donation where possible.
Closeout Documentation
We provide full project documentation including waste manifests, permit closeouts, and DEQ clearance — everything you need for your records.
Fully licensed, certified, and compliant
Oregon law requires asbestos surveys before all demolition, DEQ notification for regulated asbestos-containing materials, and proper disposal of hazardous waste. Wolf handles all of this in-house — our AHERA-certified inspector, licensed demolition crew, and compliance team work together so nothing falls through the cracks.

Common Questions
Commercial Demolition FAQ
Do you handle the asbestos survey before demolition?
Yes — this is one of Wolf's key advantages. We have an AHERA-certified building inspector on staff, so we handle the required pre-demolition asbestos survey in-house. You don't need to hire a separate inspector before you can start your project.
What permits are required for commercial demolition in Oregon?
Most commercial demolition projects require a local building demolition permit, Oregon DEQ asbestos notification (at least 10 business days before work begins), and utility disconnection sign-offs. We handle all of this on your behalf as part of our project management.
How long does a commercial demolition project take?
Timeline varies significantly based on project size and scope. A selective interior demo might take a few days; a full building tear-down could take several weeks including permitting, hazmat survey, and site clearing. We'll provide a detailed timeline in your project estimate.
Do you handle debris disposal?
Yes — full debris removal and disposal is included in our demolition services. We sort materials on site, recycle what we can, and properly dispose of all waste including any regulated materials. You'll receive disposal documentation for your project records.
Can you do selective demolition without tearing down the whole building?
Absolutely. Interior selective demolition is one of our most common services — removing walls, ceilings, flooring, and fixtures while preserving the building's structure. This is ideal for tenant improvements, commercial remodels, and renovation projects.
Are you licensed for demolition in Oregon and Washington?
Yes — Wolf Construction & Restoration is fully licensed, bonded, and insured for demolition work in Oregon (CCB# 234066, License# CC WOLFCCR760RD). We also serve southern Washington and carry appropriate coverage for cross-state projects.
