When it’s time to tear down and start fresh, demolition is more than just breaking things apart. It’s about precision, safety, and making way for what comes next. Whether you’re clearing a fire-damaged structure, prepping for new construction, or removing an outdated building, hiring the right demolition contractor is key to keeping your project on schedule and under control.
At Cowgirl Demolition & Excavation, we bring years of hands-on experience to every job site—from single-family homes to large-scale commercial buildings. Here’s what you need to know when hiring a demolition contractor in Colorado or Southern Wyoming.
Demolition isn’t just about destruction—it’s the first phase of construction. A good contractor will help you identify your project goals, assess potential hazards, and outline a step-by-step approach to clear the space safely. This includes:
At Cowgirl, we provide this clarity from the start, so you’re never left wondering what’s next.
Every structure is different—and so is every demo. Depending on the scope of your project, your contractor should be able to offer:
We specialize in all of the above, using the right equipment, permits, and crew to match your specific needs. Explore our demolition services »
A trusted demolition company should be fully licensed, insured, and OSHA-compliant. Accidents during demolition can be catastrophic—not only to your jobsite, but to adjacent structures, utility lines, and the environment.
At Cowgirl Demolition & Excavation, we don’t cut corners. Our operators are trained to handle heavy machinery safely, and our project managers keep everything aligned with local and state safety codes. We’re also certified to handle remediation when hazardous materials are involved.
One of the biggest parts of any demo job is what happens after the teardown. Your contractor should manage all debris removal and disposal in an efficient and environmentally responsible way. At Cowgirl, we handle cleanup with our in-house trucking and hauling services, which keeps the site tidy and reduces delays between demo and the next phase of work.
Whenever possible, we also help clients reclaim or recycle materials to reduce landfill waste.
The cost of demolition depends on the size, access, materials, and complexity of the structure. Be wary of vague estimates or “too good to be true” prices—unexpected fees often follow.
When you request a quote from Cowgirl, we walk the site, evaluate every factor, and deliver a clear scope of work. No surprises, no fluff—just a realistic plan that gets you from point A to point B without unnecessary delays.
A clean, properly prepped site sets the tone for the entire construction process. Any missteps during demo—like improper grading, leftover debris, or damaged underground utilities—can slow down future phases and cost thousands to fix.
That’s why working with a full-service demolition and excavation contractor like Cowgirl saves time and reduces risk. We don’t just tear things down—we make sure your site is truly ready to build on.
