What we tear down
From clearing the lot to final grade
Demolition is only part of the job. Our crews clear trees and brush, put up silt fence and safety fencing, remove old parking lots and tanks, and grade and backfill so the site is ready for what comes next.
- Tree and brush clearing
- Erosion control and safety fencing
- Parking lot and storage tank removal
- Rough grading and backfill
Asbestos abatement: licensed, certified, and all in-house
We are the only company in the Greensboro, High Point and Winston-Salem markets that handles every step ourselves, from inspection through final disposal at our landfill. Our crews work with our equipment: 14 negative air machines, electric ride-on floor tile scrapers for flooring removal, and excavators with hammers, shears and munchers for the tear-down.
- Asbestos inspection and testing
- Abatement planning, notifications and permits
- Safe containment and removal
- Proper disposal with full documentation (manifests included)

Recent demolition jobs
Houses, commercial buildings and abatement jobs. Our demolition crews work across North Carolina, South Carolina and Virginia.
Former Lexington post office
Davidson County hired A-1 for the asbestos abatement and demolition of the former post office in downtown Lexington. Our licensed crew is removing asbestos throughout the building now, with our own 30-yard roll-offs at the loading dock. We will add the after photos when the lot is cleared.

Rural Hall fire station
The general contractor brought us in to take down the old 16,000-square-foot Rural Hall fire station. Our crews removed the asbestos first, then demolished the building, hauled the debris to our facilities and graded the lot. One contractor for the whole job.

All done by our crews: tree clearing, erosion control, temporary jobsite fencing, friable and non-friable asbestos removal, an 8,000-gallon tank removal, demolition of the 60,000-square-foot building and boiler room, basement backfill, and rough grading and seeding. Metal and concrete were recycled, and everything else went to our landfill in Greensboro.
Doing it all ourselves saved the project owner an estimated $100,000 or more compared with the other bids. We also found a local hybrid academy to take the desks, chairs and school equipment left behind.
