My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Patro Construction Group Inc
Demolition Contractors in Chicago
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJanuary 28, 2017
“Patro Construction Group completed a stunningly beautiful major renovation to our home. The scope of work included working with the architect to execute the building plan, collaboration with the lead remediation & demolition work, coordination & supervision of all trades (plumbing, electrical, carpentry, HVAC), and to provide on-site, detailed project management for the homeowners. Roman Patro is highly skilled, energetic, enthusiastic and honest. He works with tradesmen who are experts in their respective fields and professional in every way. We have completed a number of smaller projects and simple renovations in the past, and the level of expertise brought to us by Patro Construction was demonstrably higher than any others we have contracted previously. Roman Patro's attention to detail is almost compulsive and evident in each finishing touch. He also suggested several design ideas which are some of our favorite finishes, such as the window casings. He treated each decision as if it were his own house. Patro Construction Group does excellent work.”

General Contractor FAQs
The duration of a demolition project varies widely depending on factors such as the size and type of structure, the method of demolition used, and the need for material sorting for recycling. Small projects, like a single-family home, might take a few days, whereas larger, more complex demolitions can take several weeks. An experienced demolition company will provide a realistic timeline upfront, factoring in permit acquisition, demolition work, and site cleanup.
Demolition companies are increasingly involved in the recycling and repurposing of materials, staying abreast of green building trends and material reusability. They work closely with architects and contractors to identify materials that can be salvaged and reused in new constructions or renovations, promoting sustainability. Some materials, like steel, concrete, and wood, are commonly recycled, aligning with eco-friendly construction practices.
Homeowners should start by obtaining the necessary permits from local authorities, a process your demolition contractor can often assist with. Removing personal belongings from the area to be demolished, notifying neighbors about the upcoming work, and ensuring utility services (gas, electricity, water) are safely disconnected or rerouted are crucial steps. Itʼs also essential to confirm the project timeline and any homeowner responsibilities with the demolition company beforehand.
Demolition companies tackle challenges such as unexpected structural complications, hazardous materials (like asbestos), and minimizing disruption to surrounding areas with thorough planning and expertise. They conduct detailed assessments of the structure to anticipate issues, implement safety protocols, and use appropriate demolition methods to mitigate risks. Continuous communication with homeowners and other stakeholders ensures that any issues are promptly addressed.
