  5. I've been looking for a demolition company that can help me get rid of my old workshop. My friend and I need more space for our business. We're starting to work on bigger machines and there's not enough room in the current building. http://www.honcdestruction.com/

  6. I agree that proof of any relevant documents and certifications would be a great thing to see. When talking to a demolition contractor, it's important to ask these as well. This way, you can see if both the contractor and the company you hired are well equipped for the job you have! http://www.rockridgeinc.com/demolition.html
