Mall Demolition Services at Queen City Demolition and Recycling

At Queen City Demolition and Recycling, we do more than just tear down buildings. We make sure everything is safe, clean, and good for the environment.

1. Getting the Site Ready

Before we start, we clear out old buildings, parking lots, and trash. We also make sure sidewalks and roads stay safe. This helps make space for new stores, houses, or parks.

2. Turning Off Utilities

Queen City Demolition and Recycling shut off and move things like water pipes, sewer lines, gas, and electricity so nothing leaks or causes danger. If the city needs new pipes or systems, we help with that too!

3. Tearing Down Buildings

We safely knock down small shops, big malls, offices, and houses. Our team makes sure other buildings nearby don’t get damaged.

4. Smoothing the Ground

After the buildings are gone, we make the land flat. We fix sidewalks, spread gravel, and prepare the ground so new buildings can be built.

5. Recycling and Cleanup

We don’t just throw things away! We recycle concrete, metal, and wood so they can be used again. This helps the environment and saves money.

 No matter how big or small the job is, we make demolition easy, safe, and responsible.

How We Demolish a Mall

1. Planning & Checking the Site

Before we start, we visit the site and make a plan. We check:

• How big the mall is (square feet of space)
• If there are nearby buildings or parking lots
• Where the water pipes, sewer lines, and electricity are
• What permits we need to file with the city

2. Getting Permits & Turning Off Utilities

Before tearing anything down, we make sure we:

• Get permits from the city
• Turn off the water, sewer, and electricity
• Set up safety barriers to protect people nearby

For our Mall Demolition Service, we work with local companies like Burlington Northern and Casey Realty to make sure everything goes smoothly.

3. Preparing the Area

Queen City Demolition and Recycling get the site ready by:

• Blocking off sidewalks and streets to keep people safe
• Removing signs and small structures like nail salons or food courts
• Setting up machines to start breaking down the mall

4. Preparing the Area

Now, we demolish the building using big machines like:

• Excavators – These tear down walls and ceilings.
• Bulldozers – These push debris away.
• Cranes – These lift heavy pieces.

Depending on the size, mall demolition service can take two to four months to finish.

5. Cleaning Up & Recycling

Once the building is gone, we clean up by:

• Picking up debris and sorting materials
• Recycling concrete, steel, and wood
• Removing old parking lot pavement

6. Getting the Site Ready for New Buildings

After demolition, we prepare the land for new construction by:

• Grading the land (making the ground even)
• Installing new water and sewer pipes
• Making space for new buildings, parking lots, or sidewalks
