Demolition Contractors in Johns Creek, GA

Most of the work we do as demolition contractors in Johns Creek is not about knocking down whole houses. It is about taking out what an owner no longer wants: a dated kitchen, a carpeted basement, a backyard pool, a rotting deck or a cracked driveway. Johns Creek grew fast in the 1980s and 1990s, and the houses from that era are now 25 to 40 years old, which is when full interior renovations start.

How the city grew

In 1981, Georgia Tech graduates bought 1,700 acres to build the Technology Park/Johns Creek office park. It grew to about 200 companies, nearly 11,000 workers and 6 million square feet of space, and the area's population climbed to around 60,000 before the city was even formed. Johns Creek became a city on December 1, 2006, and the 2020 census counted 82,453 residents and 29,139 housing units. Most of those homes sit in planned subdivisions with HOA rules on dumpsters, work hours and street parking, so we ask for your covenants before we schedule.

Interior demolition done cleanly

Owners of houses from this period often want finished basements redone and kitchens opened up to the family room. Interior demolition here means protecting the floors and stairs we are not removing, sealing off rooms with plastic and negative air when dust is an issue, and confirming which walls are load-bearing with your engineer or builder before anything structural is touched. We separate metal and clean wood where we can and haul the rest out the same day so the driveway stays usable.

Pools, patios and decks

A lot of Johns Creek backyards have in-ground pools, aging pool decks and wooden decks off the back of the house. Pool removal usually means draining, breaking up the shell, backfilling and compacting so the yard can be used again. Decks come off in sections so the house siding and ledger area are not damaged. Concrete pool decks and patios are broken out, loaded and hauled.

Working near the river

Johns Creek is bordered by 13.5 miles of the Chattahoochee River on its southern edge, and elevation ranges from about 880 feet along the river to 1,180 feet in the Ocee area. Lots near the river and its creeks can be steep, so we plan machine access and erosion control before demolition starts and keep debris away from slopes.

Older buildings in a young city

Johns Creek's history runs back further than its subdivisions. Newtown Elementary School, built in 1929, was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2006, and the area was part of Milton County from 1858 until the 1930s.
