Planning a renovation this year? Before the new stuff goes in, the old stuff has to come out.
Whether you're finally getting rid of that rotting shed, saying goodbye to a hot tub nobody uses, or gutting a bathroom down to the studs: demo is where your project really begins.
At Narcise Construction Group, we help homeowners across Delaware County, Chester County, Wilmington DE, and South Jersey tackle the messy part of remodeling. Safely, cleanly, and efficiently.
Here's what you need to know about the four most common demolition projects we handle: and how to make sure yours goes smoothly in 2026.
Shed Removal: More Than Just Knocking It Down
That old shed in your backyard? It's not going to remove itself.
Maybe it's leaning. Maybe the roof is caving in. Maybe you just need the space for a new patio, pool, or ADU. Whatever the reason, shed removal is one of the most requested services we get from homeowners.
How We Handle Shed Demolition
We follow a top-down dismantling approach:
- Roof comes off first : This prevents unexpected collapse and keeps the work controlled.
- Walls come down next : We work from top to bottom, prying panels systematically.
- Floor and foundation last : Whether it's wood planks or a concrete slab, we remove it all.
Before we swing a single hammer, we:
- Check local regulations for permits and disposal requirements
- Disconnect any electrical or water lines (safely, by a licensed pro)
- Clear the structure of stored items and debris
What About the Slab?
Many sheds sit on concrete pads. We can saw-cut and break out the slab, haul it away, and leave you with a clean, level surface ready for whatever comes next.

Hot Tub Removal: The Job Nobody Wants to Touch
Hot tubs are heavy, awkward, and a pain to dispose of. That's why most general contractors pass on them.
We don't.
Above-Ground vs. In-Ground: What's the Difference?
Above-ground hot tubs are typically easier. We disconnect the electrical, drain the water, cut the shell into manageable sections, and haul everything away.
In-ground or built-in hot tubs are more involved. They often require:
- Concrete cutting to access the shell
- Removal of plumbing and electrical lines
- Backfill and grading once the unit is out
Either way, we handle the entire process: including protecting your deck, patio, or landscaping from damage.
Why Homeowners Call Us
- Your GC doesn't want to deal with it
- You can't just "put it at the curb"
- You need it gone before your renovation timeline gets derailed

Concrete Sawing: Precision Cutting for Clean Renovations
Not every concrete job requires a jackhammer.
Sometimes you need a clean, controlled cut: whether you're creating an opening for a new door, removing a section of basement floor for plumbing, or cutting out a damaged slab.
That's where concrete sawing comes in.
When Do You Need Concrete Sawing?
- Interior renovations : Creating openings in basement walls or floors
- Utility access : Cutting trenches for new plumbing or electrical
- Selective removal : Taking out a section of slab without disturbing the rest
- Expansion joints : Preventing future cracking in new concrete work
Our Approach
We use specialized diamond-blade saws that cut through concrete, block, and masonry with precision. The result? Clean edges, minimal dust, and no collateral damage to surrounding surfaces.
This isn't a DIY job. Improper cutting can compromise structural integrity or hit buried utilities. We know what we're doing.

Interior Demolition: Gutting Done Right
Renovating a kitchen? Bathroom? Whole floor of your house?
Before your contractor can build anything new, someone has to tear out the old. That's us.
What Interior Demolition Includes
- Removing cabinets, countertops, and fixtures
- Tearing out drywall, plaster, and tile
- Stripping flooring down to the subfloor
- Exposing framing for inspection or reconfiguration
We handle selective demolition too: keeping the parts you love while removing only what needs to go. That means less waste, lower costs, and a faster timeline for your remodel.
The Part Most Homeowners Worry About: The Mess
Here's the thing. Demo is dirty. But it doesn't have to wreck the rest of your house.
We set up containment barriers to isolate the work area. We run air filtration systems to capture dust. We protect your floors, stairs, and hallways with heavy-duty coverings.
When we leave each day, the site is broom-clean and organized: not a disaster zone.

2026 Lead Standards: What Homeowners Need to Know
If your home was built before 1978, there's a good chance it contains lead paint. The EPA's Renovation, Repair, and Painting (RRP) Rule requires specific lead-safe work practices during demolition and renovation.
In 2026, enforcement is tighter than ever.
Narcise Construction Group is fully trained and compliant with current lead standards. We know how to:
- Test for lead before work begins
- Contain and minimize lead dust during demolition
- Dispose of lead-contaminated materials properly
This isn't just about following the law. It's about protecting your family: especially if you have young children in the home.
