Garage Demolition in Fort Wayne
An old garage that is leaning, rotting or just in the way of what you actually want to do with the lot does not have to be a months-long project. Collier's tears down detached and attached garages across Fort Wayne and hauls off every bit of it.
Garages are usually the point where a property owner stops procrastinating. The roof is going, a wall is bowing, the door has not worked in years, or you want the space back for a bigger build, a driveway, or just open yard. Once it is bad enough to be a hazard, it stops being something to deal with next spring.
We take down wood-frame and block garages, detached and attached. Attached takes more care, because the wall where it met the house has to be closed up properly instead of left open to the weather. We will walk that part with you before we start so you know exactly what the house is going to look like when the garage is gone.
A garage makes a lot of debris. Framing, siding, roofing, drywall, the overhead door and its hardware, and usually whatever has been stored in there for a decade. All of it is our problem, not yours. We sort the metal out, load the rest, and haul it off in as many trips as it takes.
If you want the concrete slab or the footings out too, say so at the walk-through rather than after. Pulling a slab is a different scope than dropping the structure, and it changes both the equipment and the price. It is a much easier conversation before the quote than halfway through the job.
You do not need to empty it first. If the garage is still full, we will clear it out as part of the job. That is the same work as a garage cleanout, just with the building coming down afterward.

We respond ASAP! WHAT THIS INCLUDES
WHAT AFFECTS THE PRICE
Every job is different, so we price off a walk-through rather than a number over the phone. These are the things that actually move it.
Size
A single-car detached garage is a very different job than a two or three car with a loft above it.
Construction
Wood frame comes apart faster than block or masonry. Anything with a poured upper floor is heavier again.
Attached or detached
Attached garages take extra care where they meet the house, and the wall has to be closed back up.
Slab removal
Leaving the concrete is cheapest. Breaking it out and hauling it off is its own scope of work.
What is still inside
A garage packed to the rafters is a cleanout plus a demo, and both show up in the number.
Access
Alley access and a clear driveway keep it quick. Tight lots and overhead lines slow it down.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
We can, but tell us at the walk-through. Breaking out and hauling a slab is separate work from taking the structure down, and it needs to be in the quote from the start.
Yes. The extra step is closing up the wall where it met the house so the home is not left open to the weather. We go over exactly how that will look before we start.
No. If there is still stuff in there we will clear it out as part of the job. Just point out anything you want kept before we begin.
Often yes, and it depends on the property and whether utilities run to the structure. We will tell you what we know at the walk-through and point you at the right office so it does not hold the job up.
Most single and two-car garages are a one to two day job including haul-off. Bigger structures or slab removal add time.

Quick and easy cleanup. I had some heavy furniture taken down from a third story apartment building. I was given fair and accurate pricing and timing versus other companies in the local area. The removal was effortless, I will be using again.
