Vermont Ave & South Escondido Blvd Abatement & Demolition

Watkins Environmental, leaders in the Southern California demolition industry, has been tearing down and removing asbestos from high-profile buildings for more than 20 years, from commercial buildings like this auto-body site project we just completed (see highlights below) to decommissioning entire military sites. Both comprehensive and selective building demolition are typical services we provide to both the public and private sectors. We are particularly able to work on even the most complicated projects thanks to our experience, which includes industrial facilities, schools, bridges, military structures, piers, department stores, apartment buildings, office buildings, and much more.

Vermont Ave & South Escondido Blvd Abatement & Demolition Project

Our team recently completed a large-scale residential abatement & demolition project located in Escondido, CA 92025. The project consisted of hazardous material abatement prior to the complete demolition of several residential homes, and it was performed in anticipation of a new 3 story multi-family development consisting of 26 apartment homes. At the beginning of the project, we removed and disposed of the asbestos and lead-containing materials, and then completed demolition of the entire site. All residential buildings and structures, including garages, sheds and driveways were deconstructed and removed from the property. All property walls, fencing, trees, and foundations, as well as all asphalt and concrete, were removed as well. This careful, residential demolition work was done to make the entire project safe and free from asbestos-containing materials and lead-based paint.
