Today we started the first major part of our demolition – pretty simple process just 1 machine and 1 person controlling the machine to knock all the walls down, and a second truck to haul the materials away to the recycling facility.
Knocking down the house was fairly simple – the tricky part will be breaking down the concrete in the basement. That requires different machinery, and then that hole needs to be filled with the correct materials before we can move on to pouring the new foundation.
Really exciting to see the first major step in construction happen – no going back from here!
