Controlled Demolition in Tijuana: When It Is Justified
Cheap demolition turns expensive the day it damages what was supposed to stay standing.
This guide is for anyone about to hire and wanting to understand what they are buying. If you are after the technical detail of the service, it is on the page for controlled demolition.
Conventional or controlled: how to decide
If the building is isolated, has no adjoining property and the site will be cleared, conventional machine demolition is faster and cheaper. Controlled demolition is justified when structure remains, when there are neighbours, live traffic, active services, or noise and vibration restrictions.
What makes demolition expensive
Access for machinery and cranes; height; proximity to property lines; the need for night windows; the volume and type of debris; and the presence of materials requiring special handling.
Before demolishing
Verify that the structure being demolished does not support one that remains, confirm services are disconnected, define the demolition sequence and lift plan, and cordon the drop zone. None of these steps is optional.
What to do with the debris
Clean concrete can be crushed and reused as base; mixed material goes to an authorised tip. The quote should state whether removal is included and to which disposal site.
