Cournaya’s Land Enhancement provides light demolition for select structures and hard surfaces that are in the way of your plans. We handle careful tear-down and debris removal so you’re left with a cleaner space to work with.

When Light Demolition Makes Sense

Old sheds, pads, and other smaller features can outlive their usefulness. They may be unsafe, in poor condition, or simply taking up space you’d rather use for something else. Removing them yourself can be more work and risk than you want to take on.

  • Small structures or sheds that are no longer needed
  • Concrete pads or features standing in the way of new plans
  • Old site features that prevent grading or reworking an area
  • Spaces you want to clear and repurpose

Light demolition gives you a way to safely remove these obstacles and open the area up for what’s next.

What Our Light Demolition Services Include

We focus on manageable demolition projects where our equipment and crew are a good fit. Cournaya’s Land Enhancement will look at the structure or feature, plan a safe approach, and then dismantle, break up, and remove material as agreed. When we’re finished, we can rough grade the area so it’s ready for follow-up work.

  • Assess the structure or feature and surrounding conditions
  • Plan and carry out safe tear-down procedures
  • Break up and remove debris and waste material
  • Rough grade and clean up the area as requested
  • Prepare the site for future grading, construction, or use

We’ll clearly define what is included in “light demolition” before any work starts so you know what to expect.

Our Guarantee to You

We stand behind the work we do. Our guarantee is simple: we will show up when we say we will, do the work we agreed to, and walk the job with you before we leave. If something reasonable needs to be addressed related to the work we just completed, we will talk it through and make a plan to make it right.

Our Workmanship Warranty

Outdoor work is always at the mercy of weather and existing site conditions, but we do not disappear when the equipment leaves. If you have concerns about the workmanship on a recent project, contact us. We will review the site, explain what we are seeing, and discuss any adjustments that may be appropriate based on the original scope of work.

Need a Small Structure or Slab Removed?

If an old shed, pad, or other smaller feature is in the way of what you want to do next, Cournaya’s Land Enhancement can help. Contact us to talk through the project, and we’ll inspect the site, explain what we can handle safely, and provide a clear demolition estimate.

How Our Service Process Works

Step 1: Talk Through the Project

Every job starts with a conversation. You tell us what is going wrong, how you use the property, and what you would like to change. We ask questions, look at any photos you have, and when needed schedule a visit so we can see the ground in person.

Step 2: Walk the Site and Plan the Work

On site, we walk the area with you, point out problem spots, and talk through options. We explain what we recommend, why we recommend it, and how it will be done so you understand the plan before any equipment moves.

Step 3: Do the Grading and Site Work

On delivery day, we bring the material with trucks sized for your property and access. We place piles where you can easily reach them with equipment or wheelbarrows, or where we will be grading if we are handling the spreading.

Step 4: Review the Results Together

After delivery, we are available to answer questions about how to spread, compact, or maintain the material. If you decide you would like help with grading or additional work after seeing it on site, we can talk about next steps and schedule follow-up services.

Frequently Asked Questions

Light demolition generally covers smaller structures and features that can be safely removed with our crew size and equipment. Large buildings, complex structural elements, and projects involving hazardous materials fall outside this service. We’ll let you know during the estimate whether your project is a good fit.

Permit requirements vary by location and project type. We’ll discuss what may be needed when we review your project. In some cases, the property owner may be responsible for obtaining permits before work begins, and we can help you understand what to ask about locally.

Our demolition service typically includes loading and hauling debris to an appropriate disposal or recycling facility unless we’ve agreed on a different plan. You won’t be left with piles of material on site once the project is complete.
