Demolition Contractors in Kennesaw, GA

Kennesaw stayed small for a century, and then it filled in quickly, which is why most of the work demolition contractors in Kennesaw do is on newer houses. The town had 8,936 residents in 1990, 21,675 in 2000, a 142.6 percent jump, and 29,783 by 2010. The 2020 census counted 33,036 people and 13,270 housing units. Most of those homes are subdivision houses from the 1990s and 2000s, and the projects we see are about removing parts of a house or yard rather than whole houses.

Typical Kennesaw jobs

• Kitchens, bathrooms and basements gutted before a remodel
• Wood decks that have rotted at the ledger or posts torn off and hauled
• In-ground pools broken out, backfilled and compacted
• Sheds, playsets and detached garages taken down
• Driveways, patios and walks broken out and removed

These are smaller jobs, but they still need care. We protect the house and lawn, keep the work zone tight and haul debris out quickly so the HOA does not get involved.

Under Kennesaw Mountain

Kennesaw Mountain rises to 1,808 feet, the highest point in the Atlanta metro area, and the town itself sits at about 1,089 feet. Many lots near the mountain and its ridges have slopes and rock close to the surface. That affects how we break out slabs and footings and how we plan backfill after a pool removal, since compacted fill has to be placed in layers on sloped ground to stay put.

Old Kennesaw by the tracks

Kennesaw was incorporated on September 21, 1887, and it was the staging ground for the Great Locomotive Chase on April 12, 1862. The old downtown near the railroad has buildings much older than the subdivisions around it. Removing anything there calls for a closer look at what the structure is and whether the city has an interest in it, so we check before we plan.

Near the university

Kennesaw State University, the third-largest public university in Georgia, is next door, and rental houses near campus turn over often. Owners renovating between tenants call us for quick interior demolition: flooring, cabinets, bath fixtures and damaged drywall removed in a day or two so the trades can start.

Permits and utilities

Kennesaw handles its own building permits. Pool removals, garage teardowns and full demolitions usually need one, and any job that takes a structure down needs power, gas and water disconnected and the sewer or septic dealt with. We confirm what your project needs and handle the scheduling. Call (470) 260-8440 to set up a free estimate.
