What is building deconstruction?

Building deconstruction or dismantling honors the rich history of our past by preserving reusable materials for the next generation. It is a cost-effective way to remove obsolete structures and reclaim the materials, or to move historic buildings to a new location.

We specialize in meticulously disassembling timber or stick framed buildings including the following categories in our gallery.
