Clearing a lakefront lot before the rebuild

A lakefront house on Lake Howard or Lake Shipp gets bought for the water, and before the builder shows up, the yard has to be bare. That usually means a screen room with rusted framing, a pool deck poured in 1975, a pergola, a chain-link fence along the side lot and a pile of dock lumber that's already been pulled. Rob's crew takes the light structures apart and loads them on the 16-yard trailer as they go. The pool deck is loader work: the breaker cracks it into pieces, the grapple stacks them, and a partner dump truck carries them to a recycler because concrete doesn't ride in the trailers. Rob quotes the whole clear as one number with the concrete as its own line.

Timing matters here. Rob will set the demo the day or two before your builder's start date so nothing sits in the yard between the two. Lakefront drives are short, and the trailer stays on the pavement, not the lawn.

Carports, slabs and old fence behind Winter Haven's block ranches

The 1960s ranches on the streets around Central Avenue were built with a carport, a patio slab out back and a chain-link fence around it. Sixty summers later the carport roof is rusted through, the slab is cracked and the fence is bent. Any of those is a morning's work. The carport comes down in panels and posts; the fence is unclipped, rolled and the posts pulled; the slab is broken and staged for the dump truck. Skip the slab if a new carport is going on it, and Rob leaves it alone.

Winter Haven is 26 minutes by US-17-92, and a truck is in town most weeks, so a fence or a carport called in before noon often comes down that afternoon. Loader jobs get a set date. Flat quote from photos, payment when the yard is raked. Pool chemicals and paint found in a screen room stay off the trailer; the county facility on the north side of town takes them free.

Rob is awesome! Came within 2 days to pick up excess wood from a deck repair and cleaned it all out quickly. Price was fair as well. Thanks Rob and team!

Questions

Demolition & Removal in Winter Haven

Can you clear a whole lakefront yard before my builder starts?

Yes. Screen room, pool deck, pergola, fence and any leftover dock lumber in one job, timed a day or two before the builder's start. The wood and screen ride the trailer; the concrete goes out by partner dump truck, quoted with the job.

What does it cost to remove a carport in Winter Haven?

One flat number, quoted from a photo. Most carports are a half trailer at $350 or a full one at $700, all-inclusive. If you want the slab under it broken and hauled too, that's a separate line because it goes out by dump truck.

Is demolition in Winter Haven same day?

Often, for a fence, a carport or a screen room called in before noon; Winter Haven is about 26 minutes from the yard. Anything with concrete gets a scheduled date so the loader and the dump truck line up.

Ready for it to be gone from Winter Haven?

Call before noon and it's usually gone today. Or text a photo of the pile and Rob sends back a flat quote.
