Site Prep and Grading
We handle the dirt work before a build: building pads, cut and fill, rough and finish grading, and driveway cuts. The ground ends up level where it should be and sloped so water leaves the site.

Demolition takes an old building off your property and leaves the ground clear. We tear down houses and other residential structures, barns, detached garages, sheds and carports. The building comes down, the debris is sorted and loaded out for disposal, and the lot is graded afterward. It is part of the excavation and land work we do from Woodlawn, just west of Clarksville, across Montgomery County and out to Nashville and Franklin.
Builders bring much of this work: an old house comes down and the lot gets regraded so new houses can go up. Homeowners and landowners call for a house, a barn or a shed that has outlived its use. Estimates are free, so call or text (931) 572-8673.

An old house comes down in order. The chimney and the roof come off first, then the walls, and the debris is loaded out as the work goes. An excavator with a thumb does the pulling and the sorting, so the lot stays workable and the pile goes out in roll-off containers.
With the house gone, the lot gets regraded. That is often the point of the job: a builder takes down one old house and puts up several new ones, and the ground has to be ready for the pads. Site prep and grading is the same crew, so the lot is graded in the same visit.
Old barns, detached garages, carports and storage buildings on home lots and farms come down the same way. Many sit in brush and trees that grew up around them, so land clearing comes first to make room to work. Then the teardown starts, and the ground where the building stood is cleared afterward.
Before a building is demolished, the property owner or an agent notifies every utility with a service connection in it, and Montgomery County will not issue the demolition permit until each utility gives a release. The county needs a building permit to demolish any building or structure, and its demolition packet asks for the state asbestos notification letter, due to TDEC's Division of Air Pollution Control at least 10 working days before work starts. Inside Clarksville city limits, demolition is its own city permit. Tennessee 811 marks buried lines first, on a locate ticket placed at least 3 and not more than 10 working days ahead. The paperwork is laid out in our guide to demolition permits in Tennessee.
Once loaded out, the debris goes to a construction and demolition landfill, such as Bi-County Solid Waste's Class III cells off Dover Road in Woodlawn. Burning it is out: Tennessee's list of what not to burn names demolition debris and building material.
