Services
Jobs we take on
We tear down and haul off old houses, mobile homes past saving, falling barns, and unused pools for homeowners and landowners around Bastrop County. The same crew handles the teardown and haul-off, so you make one call.
House demolition
We take down the whole house, pier-and-beam or slab, remove the foundation if you want, and clear the lot.
Mobile home removal
We tear down old single-wides and double-wides on site, scrap the metal, haul off the rest, and clean the pad.
Shed, barn, and garage removal
We remove sheds, old barns, detached garages, carports, decks, and fence lines, and set aside old tin and boards on request.
Pool removal
We break out in-ground pools for partial or full removal, fill the space, and take down and haul off above-ground pools.
Concrete and driveway removal
We break up driveways, patios, sidewalks, shed pads, and house slabs, pull the rebar, and haul off the debris.
Interior demolition
We strip kitchens, baths, and whole interiors to the studs ahead of a remodel and take the debris out the door on the same job.
Debris haul-off
We load and haul construction leftovers, remodel debris, scrap piles, and old fencing, including from jobs we didn’t demolish.
The process
How a job runs
Every job follows the same five steps, in the same order.
Walkthrough
We come look before we price it. We check truck access, the trees and fences you’re keeping, the septic tank, the well, and overhead power lines.
Permits
Inside city limits, we’ll walk you through getting the demolition permit first. Utilities get shut off and capped, and the asbestos question gets settled before anything comes down.
Teardown
The excavator brings it down, and we set metal aside for scrap. Anything you flagged stays protected.
Haul-off
We load the debris and haul it to a landfill or recycler. We keep the disposal receipts.
Final grade
We’ll take out the slab if you want it, fill the holes, and grade the lot smooth. An old septic tank gets pumped, and we backfill it.

FAQ
Common questions
Quick answers here. The guides have the details.
Do I need a permit to tear down a house in Bastrop?
Yes, inside Bastrop city limits, the city requires a demolition permit and takes about 14 working days to review an accepted application. We’ll walk you through the city’s checklist, and you can check the permits guide for Elgin and Smithville’s own permits and rules outside city limits.
Can you take down an old mobile home?
Yes, we handle mobile home removal for single-wides and double-wides, tearing them down where they sit. Texas treats a scrapped manufactured home as salvaged, so the owner files updated title paperwork with the state.
What happens to the old septic tank?
If nobody will use the septic tank again, the state’s septic rule calls for a registered hauler to pump it out, and then we backfill it to ground level. If a new house will use it, leave it and have it checked.
How much does it cost to demolish a house?
Angi’s 2026 guide puts a typical house teardown at $6,000 to $25,000 nationally. We price yours after we see it, and you can read the house demolition cost guide for more on costs.
Will you haul off a pile we didn't tear down?
Yes, we do debris haul-off for piles we didn’t tear down. That includes remodel leftovers, construction debris, scrap metal, old fencing, and a barn’s worth of junk.
