Hillside Demolition South of Ventura
Hillside lots bring steep driveways, retaining walls, terraced yards and limited room to stage equipment. We have taken down hillside homes and retaining walls with mini excavators and breakers, and we use smaller trucks where big ones can't turn around.
Larger soil exports from designated hillside areas in the City of LA can require a haul route approval, so we look at grading and export early.
Pools, Decks and Hardscape
Many Studio City homes have pools, wood decks and concrete patios that owners want out during a remodel. We break out pool decks with rebar, remove old decks and clear patios down to dirt.

Interior Remodels on the Flats
On the flatter streets near the LA River and the CBS Studio Center lot, many jobs are interior guts and kitchen or bath tear-outs in mid-century homes. We protect finished floors with Ram Board, seal off rooms with plastic and clean up at the end of each day.
Teardowns on Studio City Lots
Older homes on both the hillside and the flats are often torn down for new construction. A full teardown here usually includes the house, the garage, a pool or patio and old retaining walls. We set fencing, spray water for dust, take the structure down with an excavator and remove foundations. The result is a clean lot ready for your builder's grading and new foundation.
Permits and Access in Studio City
Studio City is in the City of Los Angeles, so permits go through LADBS. Ventura Boulevard traffic and narrow canyon streets affect when and how we haul, so we time truck trips to keep the job moving and the street open.
