House demolition that clears the way for what's next.
Teardowns for rebuilds, fire- and storm-damaged homes, and lots being prepared for sale — with the debris hauled and the pad left clean.
01Overview
How Bolt handles residential demolition
Most residential demolition in Houston starts with a rebuild plan: an older home on a valuable lot, a property that's been damaged beyond repair, or an investor clearing a parcel for new construction. Bolt handles the tear-down, the separation and haul-off of debris, and the final clean-up so your builder can mobilize without delays.
Before any machine moves, we walk the property with you, confirm utilities are disconnected, identify what should be salvaged or protected — trees, driveways, fences, neighboring structures — and plan access for equipment and trailers. Every estimate is built from that walkthrough, not a guess.

03FAQ
Residential Demolition FAQ
Do I need a permit to demolish a house in Houston?
Yes — most full demolitions inside Houston city limits require a demolition permit, and utility disconnections must be confirmed before work begins. We'll walk you through what's required for your address during the estimate.
How long does a residential demolition take?
A typical single-family home can be demolished and hauled in a few working days once permits and disconnects are in place. Size, access and foundation type are the biggest variables, and we'll give you a realistic timeline after the walkthrough.
Will you remove the slab and driveway too?
If you want them gone, yes. We can remove the slab, driveway, sidewalks and flatwork, or leave specific elements in place for your builder — it's your call and it's spelled out in the estimate.
