Tips for Barn Removal
Can I remove my own barn?
Barn demolition and deconstruction may seem straightforward due to the simple nature of barns. Because of this, it isn't uncommon for owners to consider the project DIY-able.
However, just because you can do the work, doesn't necessarily mean you should do the work. Because demolition work is dangerous, we always recommend hiring a professional to handle it safely.
Who should I hire to remove my barn?
Hire a professional who can handle the project properly and efficiently. Truly reputable barn removal contractors should have insurance and references from other customers who can attest to their ability to complete the work.
Comparing 2-3 contractor estimates (or more) will help make sure you find the right contractor without overpaying.
Discuss with each one you speak to who would be responsible for cleaning up the debris, whether or not they would collect the permits required to perform the work, and what would be included in the price.
Getting quotes from multiple contractors will make sure you make the right choice for you and your project.
