Attached vs detached

Attached garage demolition is more involved than detached because the wall shared with your house has to come apart cleanly. Our process:

  1. Disconnect garage electrical from the main panel (Oncor coordination).
  2. Disconnect gas if a line runs to the garage (Atmos coordination).
  3. Score and cut the shared wall along the framing line.
  4. Demolish the garage structure away from the house.
  5. Protect and reflash the house-side wall so it's weather-tight.
  6. Leave it siding-ready — your siding contractor finishes in one trip.

We don't do final siding ourselves, but we coordinate with siding subs in Rockwall when you ask.

Utility disconnect — the step nobody talks about

Oncor requires electrical service to be disconnected before any structural demo touches the wiring. Atmos requires the same for gas. City water handles the meter if there's a hose-bib line. We schedule all three as part of the permit timeline — nothing happens on demo day that hasn't been coordinated 5 to 10 days ahead.
