Demolition in Farmers Branch and Dallas

Maybe you're looking at a house that doesn't make sense to fix anymore. Maybe it's a leaning garage, a cracked driveway, or an old building on a lot you just bought. Under One Roof is a family-owned demolition contractor based in Farmers Branch. We take those jobs on in Farmers Branch and across Dallas and the surrounding area.

Every job ends the same way. The permit's pulled, the structure's down, the debris is hauled off, and the site is clean. Max Wensinger, the owner, is on the jobs himself. Our team brings 30+ years of combined experience, and we've served homeowners, builders, and property owners since 2021.

Our Demolition Services

Most people don't call us knowing the right term for their job. That's fine. Here's how we break the work down, so you can see where your project fits. If it fits more than one, that's normal too. We'll sort it out when we walk the property.

Structural Demolition

Structural demolition is the heavy side of what we do. We bring the heavy equipment to take buildings down safely and cleanly. We handle permits and haul-off for projects of any size. That covers a small home on a quiet street or a large commercial building near the freeway.

Some folks hear "structural" and picture one wall coming out of a house. That's not what we mean by it. For us, structural demolition means the whole building comes down. Nothing is left standing when we're done, and the debris leaves with us.

Farmers Branch has a little of everything. There are older neighborhoods with homes that have been patched for decades. There are office parks, warehouses, and retail along I-35E and the LBJ Freeway. Buildings in both places reach the end of their run, and the owner decides a fresh start makes more sense.

Here's how the main types usually line up:

The label doesn't change much about how we work. We look at what the structure is, what it was used for, and what's going on the lot afterward. That tells us how to plan the teardown and the haul-off. You don't need to know the right term before you call.

How a Demolition Job Runs With Us

A demolition job goes smoother when everyone knows their part before the first piece comes down. Here's how a typical job runs, start to finish.

  1. We walk the property. We come out and look at the job in person. We check what's coming down, how big it is, and how we'll get equipment and haul trucks in and out. This is also when you can ask every question you've got. I'd rather walk a lot twice than guess once.
  2. We pull the permit in our name. The demolition permit goes in under Under One Roof, not you. Cities often want a stack of paperwork before they'll sign off, and we handle that part. In Dallas, the city's demolition permit checklist[1] calls for an asbestos survey before work starts, so older buildings may need one first.
  3. You get the utilities disconnected. This is the one step that's on you as the owner. Gas, electric, and water need to be disconnected by the providers before we start. If a sewer cap is required, that has to happen too. The same Dallas checklist asks for notice that utilities are disconnected, so it pays to call the providers early.
  4. We take it down. Once the permit is in hand and the utilities are off, the teardown starts. Our crew brings the heavy equipment to take the structure down safely and cleanly. Max is on site, so you've got one person to talk to who knows the job.
  5. We haul it off. Debris haul-off is part of the job, not an extra you have to arrange. The wood, brick, metal, and concrete from the teardown leave the site with us. You won't be left calling around for dumpsters.
  6. You get a clean lot. When we pack up, the structure is gone and the site is clean. For a full teardown, that means a clear lot ready for a new build or a sale. For an interior job, it's a clean shell ready for the next crew. For concrete removal, it's a clear area ready for new work.

Planning and Pricing Your Demolition Job

Most of the folks who call us are planning something bigger. A builder wants a clear lot for a new home. An owner wants to sell land without an old house on it. A business wants a fresh start on a site it already owns. Our job is to get you to that clean starting point without surprises along the way.

People usually ask about price on the first call. Every job is a little different, so it helps to see it first.

Here are the things we look at when we price a job:

  • What's coming down. A detached shed is a different job than a two-story house or a warehouse.
  • How big it is. More square footage usually means more teardown time and more debris to haul.
  • What it's made of. Brick, wood framing, metal, and concrete all come down and haul off differently.
  • How easy it is to get to. A tight lot or narrow driveway changes how equipment gets in.
  • What's inside. An interior demolition job is priced on what comes out of the rooms.

Once we've walked it, we can talk through the quote with you. If something could change the scope, we'll point it out then. You won't hear about it halfway through.

We're BBB Accredited with an A+ rating, and we're fully insured. Ask us for proof of insurance anytime. Many cities want an insurance certificate with the permit application anyway.

What We Don't Do

We don't take selective demolition jobs, where one part of a building comes out and the rest stays. If that's what your project needs, we'll tell you up front so you can find the right crew.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you pull the permits and haul off the debris?

Yes, we pull the demolition permit in our name and haul off all the debris. Both are part of every job, not add-ons. When we leave, the structure is down and the site is clean.

Who disconnects the utilities before demolition?

The property owner does. Gas, electric, and water need to be disconnected by the providers before we start, along with a sewer cap if one is required. We'll tell you what needs to be done during the walkthrough, but the calls to the providers are yours to make.

What size demolition jobs do you take on?

We take on jobs of any size, from homes to commercial buildings. That covers a single house, a detached garage or shed, an interior gut job, or a large commercial building. If you're not sure your project fits, call (214) 649-5984 and we'll come look at it.
