Accidental Misses
While the purpose of your walls is to hold your home up and give it structure, hidden behind most walls can be ductwork, wiring, plumbing, internet cables, and more. If you just start wailing away on your walls willy-nilly, you can accidentally hit something, causing a lot of damage that can be quite costly to repair.

Uncontrolled Collapse
Once you start compromising the structural integrity of a building, there is always a risk of it collapsing. Serious injury can occur if building materials fall on you or someone else. Professional demolition contractors understand how buildings fall, so during residential demolition, they ensure buildings fall in a timely and safe manner.

Physically Demanding Work
Sledgehammers are heavy, and they are only one of the tools needed for a successful demolition project. Demolition involves tearing down a building that, frankly, does not want to be torn down. Modern buildings are solidly constructed, so most likely, you’ll need more than a hammer and a sledgehammer to get the job done right. Professional demolition contractors in Jacksonville use heavy equipment in order to quickly and safely demolish residences.

Permitting Process
Homeowners are often aware that they most likely have to get permission from their county before they start a home demolition project. They may also have to notify and/or get permission from their homeowners’ association, too. When you partner with a professional demolition company in Jacksonville, they are intimately familiar with the permitting laws and will ensure your residential demolition service is 100% compliant.
