"Daniel and his team worked around my schedule to find time for my small demo project. They arrived on time, and completed the project in the time frame that Daniel estimated. Their demo work was done with care, and they cleaned up after the project was completed. Wonderful experience and I would use them again if needed."

"Filipe offered us a fair price, was available to do the work almost immediately, arrived right on time, did the work (hauling away old cedar fence materials I had demoed myself) quickly and completely. He and his helper (both wearing masks) were very personable. A true pleasure. Iâ d hire them again in a heartbeat."

"I originally hired Emilio to remove popcorn ceiling ,re-texture and paint. I was really impressed with the work they performed. In fact, because of the great job they did, I had them install new doors for and and also re-texture one of my bathrooms. The price was reasonable, they were always on time, they kept me updated on where they were with each project. I plan on hiring them again to do more work in my home."

"BBCI showed up on-time, did the dirty work and wrapped up on-time. The workers were cordial. The work itself is very dirty and there was a lot of mud. We are still finding broken glass in the mud but given the work to remove an old iron window and the rain/mud at the time, it’s understandable but unfortunate. The crew also removed 2 large juniper bushes which was AWESOME! I’ll definitely recommend this company to anyone I know asking about egress window work."

"I asked Brian & Co. to remove and haul away a rotting breezeway between the house and garage. They got the demolition done in one day and the next, came back to restore fascia and soffits where the breezeway had connected. They matched the paint and hung the gutters and when they were done you would never have known the breezeway was ever there. Top-notch work, on time, right on budget, and they even left the dumpster a couple of days for my interior workmen to dump their debris as well. Communication throughout the process was terrific and they left the job spotless. I'd give them six stars if I could!"

FAQs for demolition projects in Denver, CO

To determine if a wall is load-bearing, start by checking your home’s original plans or asking a structural engineer. Exterior walls always carry weight, but interior ones only do if they sit over a beam or run perpendicular to floor joists. If a wall lines up with posts in the basement or falls directly under the roof ridge, assume it’s load-bearing and call a professional before attempting to remove it with a sledgehammer.

Calculating the wall load and sizing the beam must be performed by experts to ensure structural safety. You need a structural engineer to evaluate all load aspects and determine the proper beam dimensions. A professional engineer performs precise calculations and advises on any necessary enhancements, such as larger footings for support. An inspector then verifies that the revised structure meets all safety and code regulations before the finishing work begins.

Hiring a structural engineer is essential for ensuring your home remains structurally sound during any major renovation. Their responsibility is to deliver expert assessments and design recommendations for load-bearing modifications. The average cost to hire a structural engineer is $500, with rates ranging from $350 to $800. Consulting a licensed, experienced engineer guarantees that every structural project, whether constructing a new home or remodeling an existing one, is completed safely and efficiently.

Almost all load-bearing wall removals require a permit as they support everything above it, and building departments want proof that the new beam can handle the weight. Pulling a permit triggers plan review and inspections that confirm the work meets local code and safety standards. Skipping this step can lead to fines or being forced to rebuild later, so have your contractor pull the permit before work starts.

Removing a load-bearing wall to create an entrance for a carport or covered patio is a task that comes with defined cost implications. This modification requires extra structural adjustments to ensure safety and proper integration with the adjoining space. When you convert a wall into an entryway, you can expect to pay between $3,200 and $9,500, with an average cost of $6,400. The additional work required for this conversion reinforces the home’s integrity and ensures compliance with applicable building codes.
