Professional Fence & Wall Removal in South Gate, CA
Fence and wall removal spans a wide spectrum — from pulling out a rotted wood privacy fence with post-puller equipment to demolishing a six-foot masonry block wall with a skid steer or hydraulic breaker. The distinction matters because the equipment, labor, and disposal costs are different by a factor of three or four. C&S Demolition handles the full range: wood privacy fences, vinyl panel systems, chain-link with concrete footings, wrought iron, and masonry or concrete block walls including low-profile retaining walls that have outlived their usefulness or failed structurally.
Retaining wall removal in particular carries structural implications that homeowners frequently underestimate. A failing retaining wall has often been holding back soil load for years, and removing it without understanding the slope geometry and soil conditions can cause a rapid slope failure. If a wall is holding back soil, the owner's engineer decides how the grade is supported; C&S's bid covers the demolition, and shoring or slope support is not included.
Post footing removal is the most labor-intensive part of most fence removals: concrete footings for wooden or iron fence posts can run 24–36 inches deep, and each one needs to be excavated and removed to allow the new fence contractor to set new posts cleanly. Cost depends on fence length, material type, footing depth, and whether a masonry wall is involved. C&S gives a written lump-sum bid after seeing plans or photos. Most complete the same day. C&S hauls all debris and leaves the line clean and ready for your new fence installation.
