Out with the Old. In with the New!
A successful renovation or rebuild starts with safe, efficient demolition. At Macco Construction, we take care of every detail - from planning and permits to cleanup - so homeowners can move forward with confidence.
Demolition Done Right.
We start by assessing your project, determining what needs to be removed, and outlining the safest and most efficient approach. Our team secures the necessary permits and coordinates with local authorities to ensure everything is done by the book.
Plan & Prepare
Before demolition begins, we secure the site and protect any surrounding structures or areas that will remain. Then, using controlled methods and professional equipment, we remove materials quickly and safely.
Protect & Remove
We handle all debris removal and disposal with care - separating materials and recycling whenever possible. Our clean-up process keeps your site organized and ready for the next phase of construction.
Dispose Responsibly
Once the area is cleared, we perform a final walkthrough to make sure the space meets all safety and site-prep requirements. Whether you’re rebuilding, renovating, or expanding, we leave your property clean and ready for construction to begin.

Do I need a permit for demolition work in Boston or surrounding towns?
Yes. Most demolition projects require a local permit. We take care of all permit applications and coordinate with your town’s building department to ensure full compliance with Massachusetts safety regulations before doing any work.
How long does a typical demolition project take?
Timelines depend on the project size and scope. Interior demolitions may take a few days, while full home or addition removals can take one to two weeks, including debris removal and site cleanup.
What types of demolition services do you offer?
We handle everything from interior tear-outs and partial demolitions to full structural removals and site cleaning. Our team works on residential homes and multi-unit buildings throughout Greater Boston.
What happens to debris and materials after demolition?
All debris is safely removed and sorted for recycling whenever possible. We dispose of materials responsibly and follow local environmental and waste-management guidelines across Massachusetts.
How do you manage dust and noise during demolition?
We use dust-containment barriers, negative-air machines, and controlled equipment operation to minimize disruption. Noise is managed within local guidelines, and we always keep the worksite as clean as possible.
Do you handle hazardous materials like asbestos or lead paint?
If hazardous materials are discovered, we work with certified abatement specialists to remove them safely before continuing demolition. This ensures compliance with MassDEP and OSHA regulations.
Do you provide grading or site prep after demolition?
Yes! After demolition, we can handle site grading, foundation removal, and preparation for new construction. This gives you a clean slate to begin your next project.
