Like two of the oldest buildings in St. Tammany Parish that sat mostly forgotten, they have undergone selective demolition allowing them to be rediscovered by those who had only vaguely recalled their existence.

A great team of service professionals worked on sprucing up the buildings and making necessary repairs to preserve them.

A Demolition Company that Is True to Its Word

Our demolition company in Covington adheres strictly to the following process

Surveying

Our contractors will work with you to carry out building surveying and structural surveying.

Building surveying involves aspects like the types of construction material used, how the building was used and is being used, the presence of hazardous materials, drainage conditions, shared facilities with adjoining buildings, conditions of adjoining pedestrian and vehicular traffic, and the sensitivity of the neighborhood.

Structural surveying includes the following factors:

  • Method of construction
  • Structural system and structural conditions of
    basements,
  • Underground tanks, or underground vaults
  • The original structural system of the building’s design
  • The condition of the building
  • Removal of Hazardous Materials

You’ve got a demolition project coming up and you need to know who to call. We can help!

Our team of professionals are experienced in removing hazardous materials like asbestos minerals, petroleum contamination, and radioactive metals found on the site where you want a demolition to take place.

They are also trained  in safely disposing of these materials so that they don’t pose harm to the environment or your community.

About Covington

Founded in 1813, Covington is a charming Southern community nestled among three rivers. An eclectic mix of boutiques, art galleries and restaurants line the downtown streets while historic homes have been preserved for future generations to enjoy.

In the late 20th century, with more roads being built in Louisiana, many people who lived and worked in New Orleans started to live closer to Covington.

This was due to a commute from work via Lake Pontchartrain Causeway which is only minutes away from where they were living.

With interstate expansion during that period of time; there was then an increase of population growth for this area such as housing becoming cheaper than before and also having larger lot sizes plus feeling like you are located within your own town again all around Jefferson Parish (Northshore).
