Structural Demolition
This service is the complete dismantlement of the interior and exterior of a structure. After the structural demolition of a building, we haul away the materials and leave the property clean to move on to its next phase. Or materials may be recycled on-site and put to use for a new structure, if required. We are happy to consult on your options.
Interior Demolition
There are situations where a customer may want to preserve the exterior of a building or have a major renovatation and perform interior demolition. This has become a popular service due to the increase of landmarks throughout Chicago. When a structure has a historical exterior that must be preserved this is your service option.
On Site Recycling
Heneghan Wrecking Co. has experience in on site recycling; utilizing concrete crushers on the job site. We are consistently exceeding the City of Chicago’s 50% recycling ordinance and in addition can assist in decreased hauling by recycling on your jobsite which will provide backfill for the new development.
