Structural demolition and recycling for residential and commercial sites.

What We Demolish

Rock Solid Excavation handles structural demolition for residential and commercial sites — homes, garages, barns, and outbuildings — then sorts and recycles what comes down and leaves the site cleared, hauled, and graded for whatever's next. We do it safely and in compliance with local regulations. When a structure's done, the goal isn't just to knock it down; it's to hand you back a clean, level site ready to build on.

From a single outbuilding to a full structure, we take it down in a controlled, planned way and clear the site behind it.

Sorting, Recycling, and Cleanup

A demolition is more than knocking something over. We sort the debris and recycle what we can — concrete, metal, and clean wood — so less ends up in a landfill, then haul off the rest. When the structure's gone, we grade the site so it's level and ready for what comes next, whether that's a new build, a slab, or open ground.

Demolition is regulated, and for good reason — there's structure, debris, and sometimes utilities to deal with. We plan each job, work safely, and stay in compliance with local regulations so the takedown and cleanup are handled the right way. That planning covers the order things come down in, how debris is managed on site, and making sure utilities are accounted for before anything starts. John will walk the site first and lay out how the job will go.

Safe and Compliant

Every demolition starts with a walk-through. John looks at the structure, the site access, what's around it, and what you want the ground used for afterward, then lays out the plan and the estimate. From there it's a controlled takedown rather than a wrecking job — the structure comes down in a planned sequence, debris gets sorted as it goes, and the site is cleared and graded at the end. The aim throughout is a clean handoff: a level, hauled-out site you can move forward on, not a pile of mess left for you to deal with.

Homes and residential structures, garages, barns, outbuildings, sheds, and commercial structures. After the takedown, we clear and grade the site so it's ready for the next step.

What to Expect on the Job

We sort it and recycle what we can — concrete, metal, and clean wood — then haul off the rest. Recycling keeps material out of the landfill, and the site gets left clean.

That's the goal. Once the structure's down and the debris is hauled, we grade the site level so it's ready for a new build, a slab, or open ground, depending on your plans.

Frequently asked questions

Do you serve my area?

We work out of Fenton across Genesee, Oakland, Livingston, and Washtenaw counties. If you're near the edge, ask.

Are estimates free?

Yes — free on-site estimates, residential and commercial.

Are you licensed and insured?

Fully licensed and insured for residential and commercial site work across Southeast Michigan.

How does Michigan freeze-thaw affect this work?

It's the single biggest factor. Water that gets under or behind a structure and freezes is what moves it. Base prep and drainage are where the job is won or lost.
