In-Law Unit Demolition
Posted on Tue, Jul 10, 2007 @ 01:15 AM
The owner of this beautiful little in-law unit in Oakley decided that it was longer fit for his in-laws. At first he thought he would do it himself and spent a couple weeks breaking his back with a sledge hammer and destroying the transmission on his truck trying to pull it down. Interesting enough that's how I got started in the business so no criticism coming from my side.
He contracted us to demolish the structure and we were able to have it all on the ground within an hour using our bobcat with a grapple attachment. Four hours later there was nothing more than a spot of dirt among the lawn remaining.
The owner sat back had a beer and watched, he looked like he was having more fun than we were!
We were able to recycle 70% of the structure which is not bad but unfortunatly there is not yet a place to recycle sheetrock in the area. Hopefully someone will come up with a use for the Gypsum eventually, make some money and spare our landfills!
