Common Questions
What permits are required for demolition in Arlington, TX?
Most structural demolitions in Arlington require a demolition permit from the city's Building Services division, a Texas 811 utility locate, and a pre-demo asbestos/hazmat survey if the structure was built before 1980. For properties near TxDOT right-of-way or floodplain zones, additional state notifications may apply. We handle all permitting coordination as part of every project scope.
How long does a commercial demolition project typically take?
A standard single-structure commercial demo in Arlington — think a 10,000–20,000 sq ft tilt-wall or retail shell — typically runs 3–7 working days for the demo itself plus 1–2 weeks for permitting upfront. Larger industrial projects or those with hazmat abatement requirements take longer. We build a project-specific schedule at bid time and staff to hit it.
Do you recycle concrete debris from demolition?
Yes. Concrete and masonry from our demolition projects is crushed on-site or at a regional facility and processed into recycled base aggregate. On larger Arlington projects we can reuse that material as sub-base for the same site, reducing haul costs significantly. All recycling and disposal is documented for permit close-out and LEED reporting if required.
Can you do selective demolition while adjacent spaces remain occupied?
Selective demolition with occupied neighbors is a specialty — we do it regularly in Arlington's denser commercial corridors. It requires detailed shoring plans, dust containment, vibration monitoring, and coordination with neighboring tenants. We provide a written protection plan and daily site walk-throughs to confirm no impact to occupied areas.
