Commercial Demolition Tips for North Henderson, IL

How is commercial demolition done?

The most common method for commercial demolition is mechanical demolition—the kind performed with heavy machinery, like excavators, bulldozers, wire rope pulls, wrecking balls, etc.

This equipment requires qualified professionals, and they can create quite a bit of noise and mess. Lots of dust, vibrations, airborne debris, and more are just some of the things that come with mechanical commercial demolition.

The heavy machinery is used to tear down the structure as efficiently and safely as possible while minimizing public health risks.

Who can perform commercial demolition?

Under the Asbestos Hazard Emergency Response Act, any contractor, supervisor, worker, inspector, or otherwise that works with asbestos-containing building materials in a commercial building must be accredited by the EPA Model Accreditation Plan or by an equally rigorous training program.

In addition, because commercial demolition requires great care and knowledge, it shouldn't be taken on by just anyone. With Hometown Demolition, you can get quotes from as many contractors in your areas as you'd like. You can read their company profiles, see what other customers have to say about their services, and more.
