Professional Barn Demolition and Removal
Barn demolition requires careful planning and experienced hands. Whether it's a small horse barn or a large agricultural building, the post-and-beam structure needs to come down safely and methodically. We handle every step — from roof truss removal to hay loft teardown to foundation excavation.
Want It Gone provides complete barn demolition across Citrus County, The Villages, and the greater Ocala area. We dismantle, haul away debris, and clear the land. Timber salvage is available for reclaimed wood enthusiasts — barn beams and siding are valuable.
Our Barn Demolition Process
- 1On-site assessment. We evaluate the barn's construction, identify salvageable materials, and plan the safest demolition approach.
- 2Metal siding removal and roof truss dismantling. We start from the outside and work inward, removing roofing and exterior materials first.
- 3Structural teardown with timber salvage. The post-and-beam frame comes down carefully, with usable beams and lumber set aside if requested.
- 4Foundation excavation and land clearing. We remove the foundation, grade the site, and leave the land clean and ready for its next use.
Have smaller structures to remove too? We handle shed demolition with concrete pad removal and fence line clearing and deck removal.
FAQs
- How much does barn demolition cost?
- Barn demolition pricing depends on the size, construction type (post-and-beam structure vs. metal siding), foundation type, and accessibility. We provide free on-site assessments with detailed, transparent quotes. Call (352) 234-8118 to schedule.
- Can you salvage barn wood and timber?
- Yes. Timber salvage is one of the advantages of professional barn demolition. Reclaimed barn wood and beams are valuable. We carefully dismantle the structure to preserve usable lumber, and you keep whatever materials you want.
- How long does barn demolition take?
- Most barn demolition projects take 2-3 days depending on the size and complexity. Larger barns with hay loft teardown and heavy timber framing may take longer. We'll give you a clear timeline during the assessment.
- Do you remove the barn foundation?
- Yes. Foundation excavation and removal are part of our service. Whether it's a concrete slab, pier blocks, or a stone foundation, we break it up and haul it away as part of the project.
- Do you handle land clearing after the barn is gone?
- Basic land clearing and site grading are included. We remove all debris, level the footprint, and leave the area clean. For extensive land clearing beyond the barn's footprint, we can provide additional quotes.
