Safe, Efficient Demolition Solutions for Atlanta Area Homes & Businesses

When demolition is necessary—whether it’s tearing down an old garage, clearing land for a new build, or fully deconstructing a commercial site—Elko Enterprise Properties delivers safe, professional, and reliable demolition services across the Atlanta metro area.

We handle both residential and commercial projects, always following strict safety protocols and local regulations to deliver a seamless experience.

Residential Demolition in Atlanta

Residents needing to remove detached garages, sheds, interior walls, or full structures can count on our team for expert residential demolition. Here’s what you can expect:

 

Checking for hazards like asbestos or lead paint, and planning safe removal.

 

We coordinate with utility providers to safely shut off water, gas, and electrical services before any work begins.

 

Our crews dismantle structures efficiently and remove all debris, handling everything from drywall and framing to roofing materials—then responsibly dispose or recycle it according to regulations.

 

We restore your lot by backfilling, grading, and preparing for its next use. In many cities, including Atlanta-area jurisdictions, final inspections require site restoration—even grass seeding in some cases.

Residential Demolition FAQs

Typically, small residential projects like sheds or interior demos finish in a day or two; full house razes may take several days, including clean-up and site restoration.

Yes—most residential demolition requires a local permit. We handle the permitting process to ensure compliance with codes.

While exempt under federal law for standard residential structures, we still recommend asbestos surveys and abatement if needed—especially for homes built before the 1980s or on larger projects.

Commercial Demolition Services

For commercial property owners—whether offices, storefronts, warehouses, or mixed-use buildings—demolition requires extra planning, safety measures, and equipment. We manage those complexities with confidence.

Our commercial demolition includes:

Thorough Planning

From securing permits to conducting hazard assessments (like asbestos or toxic materials), we coordinate every step.

Controlled Demolition

We use the appropriate method—from mechanical demolition using excavators and cranes to precision deconstruction or even implosion when necessary.

Environmental Stewardship

Dust suppression, hazardous material abatement, and debris recycling/reuse are standard practices, not extras.

Debris Management

After demolition, we handle sorting, recycling, transport, and disposal, ensuring compliance with regulations and sustainability goals.

Frequently Asked Questions: Residential & Commercial Demolition

How much will demolition cost?

Costs depend on property size, materials, permitting, and any hazardous material handling. Residential average rates range from $5 to $15 per square foot; full house demolition may range from $8,000 to $25,000, and commercial typically falls between $4 and $8 per square foot.

Who handles permits and regulations?

We manage the entire permitting process, coordination with local agencies, and ensure all codes are followed.

Are there safety and environmental risks?

Yes, demolitions generate dust, debris, noise, and could spread hazardous materials if not managed properly. We mitigate these with dust control, engineered demolitions, protective gear, and compliance with OSHA and environmental guidelines.

What is deconstruction and is it available?

Deconstruction is a more sustainable alternative—it involves dismantling rather than demolishing, preserving up to 25% of residential materials for reuse (or even up to 70% recycled in some projects). We can accommodate deconstruction upon request.

Do you recycle demolition waste?

Absolutely. Concrete, wood, metal, and other materials are sorted and delivered to recycling centers or repurposed. We do everything possible to minimize landfill use.

What should property owners prepare before demolition starts?

Inform us if you’d like to salvage materials. Ensure utilities are disconnected (we guide or facilitate this). Confirm or let us handle permits. Prepare for site restoration afterward.
