Demolition Contractors in Connecticut & Rhode Island
K.E. Braza Construction provides residential and commercial demolition services across Connecticut and Rhode Island. As a licensed demolition contractor, Lic. #DMCR.003626, we handle projects ranging from full house demolition and structural removal to concrete foundation removal, site clearing, and preparation for the next phase of construction.
Because our team also performs excavation, foundation installation, and structural concrete work, we can carry a project from demolition through site preparation and rebuilding with fewer handoffs and a clearer construction sequence.
Demolition Services
Every demolition project begins with the structure, property conditions, access, removal scope, and intended next use of the site. Our services include:
Full house and building demolition
Residential and commercial structural demolition
Selective structural removal
Structural shoring and underpinning
Concrete slab and foundation removal
Site clearing and debris removal
Site preparation for foundations and new construction
If demolition is only the first phase of a larger project, K.E. Braza can coordinate the transition into excavation and sitework or foundation installation.
Full Building and House Demolition
Full demolition requires more than taking down a structure. The work must account for site access, neighboring buildings, the material being removed, existing foundations, and what will be built next.
K.E. Braza performs complete residential and commercial structure removal and can continue with foundation removal, excavation, grading, and preparation for rebuilding. Keeping those related phases with one contractor helps simplify communication and keeps the site plan connected to the final construction goal.
Structural Demolition, Shoring, and Underpinning
Some projects require removing part of a structure while protecting adjacent or remaining construction. K.E. Braza provides structural demolition, shoring, and underpinning based on the needs of the property and the planned work.
These services can support renovation, foundation replacement, house-lifting preparation, additions, and projects where existing structural conditions must be addressed before new work begins. The appropriate approach depends on the building, access, surrounding structures, and engineering requirements for the project.
## Concrete and Foundation Removal
Old foundations, slabs, footings, and other concrete elements can interfere with new construction or prevent a site from being graded correctly. Our demolition and excavation capabilities allow us to remove concrete and foundation materials and then prepare the area for the next phase.
When a replacement foundation is planned, our team can connect demolition and removal work directly with excavation and new foundation construction.
Site Clearing and Rebuild Preparation
After a structure or foundation is removed, the site still needs to be left in a condition that supports the next step. Depending on the project scope, K.E. Braza can provide debris removal, excavation, grading, and preparation for a new foundation or other site improvements.
This integrated approach is especially useful when the property owner, builder, or project team needs demolition to lead directly into new construction rather than end with an unfinished site.
What We Review Before Demolition Begins
Before defining the work, we review the information that affects equipment access, sequencing, removal, and the next construction phase:
Property location and site access
Type and size of the structure
Full or selective demolition scope
Proximity to neighboring buildings or site features
Concrete, slab, and foundation removal needs
Intended use of the site after demolition
Excavation, grading, or foundation work that follows
Providing the property address, current photos, plans and permits, and a short description of what will replace the existing structure helps us understand the project more quickly.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does K.E. Braza perform full house demolition?
Yes. We perform full residential structure demolition and can also remove existing foundations, clear the site, and prepare the property for rebuilding when those services are included in the project scope.
Can you remove concrete slabs and foundations?
Yes. Concrete and foundation removal are available as part of demolition and site-preparation work. The exact approach depends on the structure, access, material, and planned next use of the site.
Can you prepare the site for a new building after demolition?
Yes. K.E. Braza also provides excavation, grading, foundation installation, and structural concrete services. That allows demolition work to be coordinated with the next construction phase when appropriate.
Do you provide shoring and underpinning?
Yes. Structural shoring and underpinning are available for projects where remaining or adjacent construction needs support. Project conditions and engineering requirements determine the appropriate method and scope.
What should I send when requesting a demolition estimate?
Send the property address, photos of the existing structure and access points, any plans and permits, whether the project requires full or selective demolition, and what is planned for the site afterward. Include any available plans or engineering information that applies to the work.
