Demolition Contractor in Dammam – Building Demolition, Wall Breaking & Debris Removal

A demolition contractor in Dammam takes down a building, or a defined part of it, to a plan: the utilities are disconnected, the plot is fenced, the structure comes down from the top with the right machine, the rubble goes to an approved site and you get back a clean, level plot. At Aemar Al-Maryam General Contracting we demolish old and traditional houses, villas, apartment buildings, shops and warehouses; we carry out partial demolition of annexes, rooftop rooms and concrete canopies; and we break walls, tiles and concrete inside occupied homes, in Dammam and across the Eastern Province. A small traditional single-storey house starts from SAR 7,400, a two-storey villa from SAR 13,900 and a block wall between two rooms from SAR 185. These are starting estimates, and the final price is fixed after inspection and agreement. Phone and WhatsApp: 0547879578.

Most people who call us are in one of three situations. An owner has an old house and has decided to build something new on the plot. A villa owner wants an annexe or a rooftop room gone without touching the rest of the building. Or a family is refreshing a flat and only needs a wall or a floor broken out. Each of these needs a different method, different tools, a different price and sometimes a different permit, and mixing them up is exactly what makes demolition expensive or unsafe for the house and the neighbours. This guide sets out what an owner should know before signing anything: how full demolition, partial demolition, interior breaking and cutting differ; when a Balady permit is required; how debris has to be removed under the rules; what drives the price; and how the numbers work in practice, with worked examples.

Demolition contractor in Dammam: what we do from inspection to handover

A demolition contractor in Dammam does not start with the excavator; the job starts with a site visit. On that visit we look at the construction type, the number of floors, any walls shared with neighbours, the width of the street the machines will use and where the electricity and water meters are. Then we agree what comes down and what stays, arrange the permit, the disconnections and the fencing, and only then demolish, haul away and level. Doing the work in that order is what makes it both quick and safe.

You can hire us for a single stage or for the whole project, from stripping out the doors to handing over a level plot ready for the surveyor. The service is described on our demolition and breaking service page. These are the main kinds of work we take on:

Building demolition in Dammam: houses, villas, apartment buildings and shops

Building demolition in Dammam means removing the whole structure in a way that protects everything around it, and the plan depends far more on the type of building than on its size. An old traditional house in block or stone can be dismantled in a few days with a mid-size machine. A two-storey reinforced concrete villa needs an excavator with a breaker or crusher and more time to separate the steel from the concrete. A shop or apartment block on a commercial street adds another factor: pedestrians, traffic and the businesses next door.

In Dammam’s residential districts the biggest constraint is usually the house next door. Many older homes share a wall with the neighbour or stand less than a metre from it. In that case it is not safe to run the machine along the full building. We take down the far part mechanically and leave a strip along the shared side for hand work, so that vibration does not travel into the neighbour’s structure and nothing falls onto their roof.

Old house demolition in Dammam

Demolishing an old house in Dammam starts with checking what it is made of and what state it is in: cement block, stone, or concrete with tired slabs and rusting reinforcement. A structurally weak house is never walked on at roof level, and it is never left half-standing overnight without being made safe. We start with the light elements such as doors, windows and roof tanks, then take the slabs off from the top, then the walls, and we spray water throughout so the dust does not settle over the street.

Older houses in Dammam often contain things that need separate handling: old cement sheets on annexes or shades, underground water tanks and old septic pits. A septic pit is emptied and backfilled properly; the underground tank is broken out or left in place as you prefer; and any sheet material that might contain asbestos is left alone, as explained in the safety section below.

Villa demolition in Dammam

Villa demolition in Dammam is heavier work than a traditional house because a modern villa is a reinforced concrete frame: columns, beams and slabs tied together, sometimes with a basement, a swimming pool or a concrete boundary wall. We use an excavator fitted with a crusher jaw that bites the concrete from the top down, cut the reinforcement with shears and stockpile it for sale. The pool and the basement are treated as a separate stage, because filling them needs proper compaction so the ground does not settle later under the new building.

Demolishing apartment buildings, shops and warehouses in Dammam

Multi-storey apartment buildings and shops on busy streets need a tighter plan: scaffolding or protective mesh on the façade, controlled truck movements and sometimes working at hours when traffic is lighter. Warehouses with a steel frame have their cladding and trusses dismantled before the bases and concrete floor are broken out. We always price these projects after an inspection and give you a schedule showing the stages and the expected number of debris loads.

Full demolition, partial demolition, interior breaking or cutting: which one do you need?

The difference between these four types of work is how much is removed and how it is removed. Full demolition takes the whole building away. Partial demolition removes a defined part and keeps the rest. Interior breaking removes finishes or non-load-bearing walls. Cutting makes a clean opening in concrete without hammering or vibration. Knowing which one your job is decides the permit, the machine and the price, and the table below sums it up.

Rule of thumb: if you are not sure what type a wall or element is, treat it as load-bearing until an engineer has checked it.

Partial demolition in Dammam: annexes, rooftop rooms and concrete canopies

Partial demolition in Dammam means taking away one part of a building while the rest stays sound. The requests we get most often are an old rooftop room, an annexe in the courtyard, a concrete canopy over the entrance, or an external stair being replaced. What makes it difficult is that the part being removed is tied to the original building by reinforcement and concrete. If it is hammered off roughly, cracks travel into the slab or the wall that is meant to stay.

So we first separate the part to be removed with a straight diamond saw cut, then set steel props under the slab that remains, and dismantle the part piece by piece with hand breakers, lowering the pieces with a small hoist or ropes rather than throwing them down. When the work is on a roof, we also watch the weight of the debris piling up, because a heap of rubble on an old slab can load it far beyond what it was designed for.

Cutting walls without breaking in Dammam

Cutting walls without breaking is the right answer when you want a door, window or passage in a concrete wall and the rest of the room must not be shaken. A diamond saw cuts concrete and reinforcement in a straight, water-cooled line, the block comes out in one piece and the edges are clean enough to finish directly. Prices and methods for that work sit on a separate page, concrete cutting in Dammam, and small pipe holes are covered under core drilling in Dammam.

Our working rule is simple. If a whole block wall is coming out, breaking is faster and cheaper. If you need a defined opening in concrete, or the wall sits against expensive finishes that cannot take vibration, we cut first and break inside the cut line. Many partial demolition projects combine both.

Breaking contractor in Dammam: walls, floors and concrete

A breaking contractor in Dammam usually works inside buildings that are lived in or already finished, so the job is to remove exactly what was asked for and to protect everything around it from dust and damage. Interior breaking is not a small demolition; it has its own sequence. Floors and furniture are covered, power to the wall is isolated, the route of water pipes is confirmed, and only then does the breaking start, with rubble bagged and carried out as the work goes.

Wall breaking in Dammam

Wall breaking in Dammam is usually done to enlarge a room, open the kitchen to the living area, or remove a wall that was added later. A block wall sitting under a visible concrete beam is usually a partition and can be taken out once we have confirmed there is no hidden column or service inside it. A concrete wall, or a wall with no beam above it that the slab rests on, is not touched until a civil engineer has given an opinion.

• ✓Thickness: a wall thicker than about 20 cm needs checking before any breaking.
• ✓What is above it: is there a concrete beam carrying the slab, or does the slab sit on the wall itself?
• ✓What is below it: a wall built on a ground beam may be part of the structural system.
• ✓What is inside it: sockets, switches, water or drain pipes, which are rerouted before breaking, not after.

Removing the wall between two rooms in Dammam

Removing the wall between two rooms is a common job in Dammam flats and villas when two rooms are turned into one larger living space, and a normal block wall is usually done within a working day. We isolate the power to the wall and cover the floor with protection boards, break from the top down with an electric breaker, leave the concrete beam above untouched, and put in a temporary prop if there is any doubt about how the slab is carried.

Once the wall is gone, a few things appear that nobody notices beforehand. There is a strip in the floor where the wall stood, because the two rooms were often tiled in different tiles or at slightly different levels, and there is a line on the ceiling along the old wall. So we agree with you in advance whether we hand the space over broken out and clean, or whether we also patch the floor, plaster and paint. And if we find a column inside the wall, the column stays and we reshape the finishes around it, because removing a wall with a column in it never means removing the column.

What comes after the wall is removed? Three small jobs make the difference between a finished room and a building site. First, patching the floor strip that was under the wall; often the neatest answer is to retile both rooms or to put in a deliberate threshold. Second, plastering the underside of the beam and the two wall ends where the wall was cut. Third, moving the sockets and switches that were on the wall. Plan those three before the breaking starts and the room is finished within days instead of sitting half-done.

Can you stay at home during interior breaking? Yes, for limited jobs, if we seal the room with plastic sheeting, close the nearby air-conditioning grilles and take the rubble out every day. Breaking the tiles of a whole floor, or several bathrooms at once, is easier with that floor vacated for a while, because fine dust spreads however carefully the area is sealed and the noise runs for hours at a time.

Tile and floor breaking in Dammam

Tile breaking in Dammam is the first step in most floor, bathroom and kitchen refurbishments. We remove the old tiles together with the bedding screed underneath until we reach a sound surface, because new tiles laid over hollow or cracked bedding bring the same problem back within months. We work with small breakers held at a shallow angle so that we do not punch into the concrete slab below or crack the service pipes buried in the floor.

In bathrooms the breaking goes deeper: tiles, then fill, then the old waterproofing, down to the drain and supply pipes so they can be replaced. If you are renovating the whole bathroom, we coordinate the breaking with the waterproofing and plumbing; see our guide for a renovation contractor in Dammam.

Concrete breaking in Dammam

Concrete breaking in Dammam covers old bases in warehouses, floor slabs, concrete boundary walls and plinths for equipment and tanks. Reinforced concrete does not break the way block does, because the steel holds the pieces together. We use a hydraulic breaker on a mini or mid-size excavator depending on the space, then cut the exposed bars and separate them from the lumps so everything can be loaded.

In enclosed spaces, or next to equipment that is still running, we cut before we break: the slab is sawn into squares, which are lifted out or broken outside, so there is far less vibration and dust. Any concrete that carries a part of the building that is staying, such as a column base or a suspended slab, is broken only to an engineer’s plan.

Breaking a wall with an angle grinder in Dammam: where it helps and where it hurts

Breaking a wall with an angle grinder, the hand-held cutter Saudis call the “rocket”, works for thin walls and limited jobs; on a thick concrete wall it cannot do the job alone. It cuts with a disc of limited diameter, and even large hand-held power cutters reach only about 125 mm deep. That means they cannot cut through a 20 cm concrete wall from one side. Used properly, the cutter marks the cut line and the edges of the opening, or cuts block, and the breaking is then finished with a breaker inside that line.

Breaking and renovation contractor in Dammam

A breaking and renovation contractor in Dammam covers two stages under one contract: breaking out the damaged part or the part being changed, then rebuilding and finishing it. That is what most people refurbishing a bathroom or kitchen or enlarging a room actually need. Splitting the job between a breaking crew and a separate builder leaves a gap in responsibility: who patches the floor, and who replasters the line where the wall came out?

When we do both, we plan for the second stage from the first day. We break to straight, regular edges that are easy to plaster, keep the floor level ready for new tiles, and check the concrete and steel if they are exposed during breaking. If the work is really about repairing structural defects such as cracks and corroded reinforcement, the right guide is our renovation contractor in Dammam article and the renovation service.

Building demolition methods in Dammam: manual, mechanical and selective

Three demolition methods are actually used in Dammam’s residential districts: manual demolition, mechanical demolition with machines, and selective demolition, which combines the two. The choice is not only about speed; it depends on how close the neighbours are, the condition of the building, the width of the street and what you want to keep.

You may read elsewhere about demolition by explosives, by wrecking ball or even by laser. Explosive demolition needs special approvals and open sites far from homes; the wrecking ball is an old method that sends pieces flying; and there is no laser that demolishes a concrete building in contracting work. What is done on residential plots in Dammam is the three methods above, and we will not offer you a method that does not suit your site.

How to demolish an old house in Dammam, step by step

A safe demolition of an old house runs in the reverse order of construction: what was built last comes off first, the top comes down before the bottom, and the light elements go before the structure. These are the stages we follow on most full demolition projects:

1. 1
   Inspection and record
   We visit, photograph the building and the adjoining neighbours’ houses inside and out before starting, and agree what comes down and what stays.
2. 2
   Permit and disconnection
   The demolition permit is issued through Balady and an engineering office, the electricity company is asked to remove the meter temporarily, and water and drainage connections are capped.
3. 3
   Fencing and set-up
   A steel fence with mesh goes round the plot with warning signs, truck parking is marked out and a hose is ready to damp down dust.
4. 4
   Selective strip-out
   Doors, windows, aluminium, AC units, roof tanks and cables come out first, and anything saleable is sorted.
5. 5
   Top-down demolition
   The upper slab is broken out, then its walls, then the floor below, with hand work along the strip that adjoins the neighbours.
6. 6
   Sorting and loading
   Steel is separated from concrete, rubble is gathered and loaded into covered tippers by a licensed carrier.
7. 7
   Foundations and levelling
   Bases and ground beams are broken out if that was agreed, pits and voids are backfilled, and the plot is levelled.
8. 8
   Handover
   The street and pavement are cleaned, the finished plot is photographed and proof of waste disposal is handed over.

Demolition permit in Dammam through the Balady platform

Demolishing a whole building needs a demolition permit, which is issued electronically on the Balady platform without a visit to the municipality. The owner signs in through the national single sign-on, picks the existing building permit, or the survey decision, that covers the plot, chooses an engineering office to contract with, and declares that the building will be empty of people and animals during demolition. The engineering office then completes the data and prepares the required drawings, the fee invoice is generated, and once it is paid the permit is issued and can be printed.

Does partial demolition or removing a wall need a permit?

Breaking out a non-load-bearing block partition, or tiles and floors, counts as maintenance and refurbishment and does not normally need a demolition permit. Removing a structural element, removing part of the building such as an annexe or a rooftop room, or altering a load-bearing wall is a modification, and the engineering office decides which permit applies, be it a demolition permit or a permit to add, change or remove building components. Inside Jubail Industrial City the authority is the Royal Commission rather than the municipality. We do not remove an element that carries the building without an approved drawing.

How much is the demolition permit fee?

Balady does not publish a fixed fee for the demolition permit; the fee is worked out by its fee calculator from the property data, and the engineering office’s own fee is agreed with that office. That is why our quotation never includes a figure for the permit. We always keep our price for demolition and haulage separate from government fees and the engineering office’s fee.

Safety and protecting the neighbours during demolition in Dammam

Demolition safety starts before the first blow: an inspection of the building and what surrounds it, every service disconnected outside the building line, and then demolition from the top downwards so that nothing falls unplanned. These principles appear in the international occupational safety rules for demolition, and in practice they protect the workers, passers-by and the neighbour’s house more than any machine does.

• ✓Electricity: the Saudi Electricity Company offers temporary meter removal for customers who are rebuilding or renovating, and we ask for it to be done before demolition.
• ✓Water and drainage: the supply is shut and drain openings are sealed so rubble cannot enter them and water cannot run onto the neighbour’s plot.
• ✓Fencing: a steel fence with mesh around the site, warning signs, and the entrance closed at the end of each day.
• ✓Dust: water spray during breaking and loading, covered tippers and a clean street.
• ✓The adjoining neighbour: their house is photographed beforehand, we work by hand near the shared wall, and we never pile rubble against it.
• ✓Glass and tanks: glass is removed before demolition, and any fuel or gas tanks are emptied.
• ✓The crew: helmets, glasses, gloves and safety boots, and nobody stands below the working area.

Asbestos in old houses: when we stop work

Asbestos is a fibrous material that was used in some cement roof sheets, pipes and old tanks, and breaking it releases fibres that are harmful to breathe. Saudi Cabinet decisions have banned its use, import, export and manufacture, called for it to be replaced in buildings and water networks and disposed of safely, and a permanent national committee now follows up the ban. In international practice, demolition of a building where asbestos is suspected does not start until a dedicated asbestos survey has been done.

Debris and rubble removal in Dammam

Rubble removal in Dammam is part of the demolition contract rather than an extra, because the rules make the permit holder responsible for disposing of the waste. Under the Ministry of Municipalities and Housing requirements for construction and demolition waste, the permit holder must contract a licensed carrier to take all of the waste to sites designated by the municipality. The supervising engineering office checks that the carrier is licensed by the National Center for Waste Management and that the waste receipt form is used, and then submits the final waste receipt certificate with the end-of-works report.

In Dammam, construction and demolition waste goes to the Eastern Province Municipality’s recycling station, and the municipality asks for a certificate proving disposal when issuing building and demolition permits. Dumping rubble on empty plots or at the edge of a district exposes whoever did it to fines, and it is one of the commonest ways an owner ends up with a problem even when it was the contractor who dumped it.

• Sorting: steel and aluminium are separated for sale, concrete and block go together, and timber and plastic are kept apart.
• Loading: a small loader on open plots, bags inside flats and occupied houses.
• Hauling: tippers or light trucks covered with mesh so dust does not blow onto the road.
• Proof: we give you proof of disposal at the approved site to put with the permit file when it is needed.

Demolition for scrap: is free building demolition in Dammam real?

Demolition for scrap means the contractor keeps the steel, metals and saleable doors in exchange for part or all of the demolition fee. On a large building with plenty of reinforcement, aluminium and good doors, the net cost can drop a long way. It is rarely free on small traditional houses or old buildings whose steel has rusted, because haulage, machines and labour still have to be paid for.

Our approach is more transparent. At the inspection we estimate the value of whatever can be sold and deduct it from the price as a visible line in the quotation, and the haulage and clean-up remain our responsibility. Be wary of offers of free demolition that take the steel and leave the heavy rubble on the plot; you then end up paying a second time to have it removed.

Demolition and breaking prices in Dammam (starting from)

Demolition and breaking prices in Dammam start from SAR 185 for the wall between two rooms, SAR 7,400 for a small traditional house, SAR 13,900 for a two-storey villa and SAR 46 per square metre of floor area for larger concrete buildings. We set these figures below the lowest prices competitors publish in Dammam and in the nearest priced city, and the final price is fixed after inspection.

Please note: Every figure here is an estimate until inspection and agreement; each one moves with the construction type, number of floors, floor area, how close the neighbours are, how easily machines can reach the plot and how much debris there is. Lines marked “on inspection” get their price after we visit; send us photos with rough measurements on WhatsApp 0547879578 and we will reply with an estimate.

Price per square metre for demolition in Dammam

The price per square metre for demolition in Dammam starts from SAR 46 per square metre of floor area for concrete buildings, meaning the total area of all floors rather than the plot area alone. A villa on a 400 m² plot with two floors of 250 m² each has a floor area of 500 m². The square-metre rate is used for larger buildings. Small houses are priced as a whole project, because moving machines, fencing and haulage are a fixed cost that does not shrink with the building.

How much does it cost to demolish an old house in Dammam?

Demolishing an old house in Dammam starts from SAR 7,400 for a small single-storey house, and the cost rises with the area, the number of annexes and any adjoining neighbour who forces longer hand work. What pushes the cost of an old house up most is what is found during demolition: a large underground tank, a septic pit that must be backfilled, or sheets suspected of containing asbestos that need a specialist. That is why we ask for photos of every part of the house before pricing.

How much does it cost to demolish a two-storey house in Dammam?

Demolishing a two-storey house in Dammam starts from SAR 13,900 where the two floors together are around 300 m², and anything above that is priced at the square-metre rate from SAR 46. The worked example below only illustrates the arithmetic; the actual price follows the inspection.

Note: this is an illustration, not a quotation; a basement, pool, adjoining neighbour or narrow street changes the figures.

Villa demolition cost in Dammam

Villa demolition in Dammam starts from SAR 13,900 for a villa of about 300 m² of floor area, and larger villas are priced per square metre. What sets villas apart from ordinary houses is the extra elements: basements, pools, high concrete boundary walls, outbuildings and canopies, each of which is priced once we have seen it. On the other hand, a modern villa usually contains more reinforcement, and its value can bring the net figure down once it is deducted.

Cost of demolishing a traditional house in Dammam

Demolishing a traditional house in Dammam starts from SAR 7,400, less than a villa because a traditional house is usually a single storey of block with lighter roofs. But traditional houses are often in older districts with narrow streets, where only a mini excavator and a small tipper can get in and more loads are needed. As an illustration, a traditional house of about 160 m² comes to roughly SAR 7,360 at the square-metre rate, so it stays at the project minimum, with debris loads added by number.

How much does it cost to demolish a wall in Dammam?

Demolishing a wall in Dammam starts from SAR 185 for a normal block wall between two rooms, including the breaking and bagging of the rubble. The price goes up with the length and height of the wall, if it is concrete, if it has electrical or plumbing runs that must be rerouted, or if you also want the floor and plaster patched afterwards. A load-bearing wall is not priced before the engineer’s report, because the job then includes props and possibly a replacement beam, not just breaking.

Cost of demolishing a room in Dammam

The cost of demolishing a room in Dammam depends on where it is. A freestanding room in the courtyard is a different job from a rooftop room tied into the slab, and both differ from an internal room being opened into the living area. As an illustration, a freestanding block room of 4 × 5 m, which is 20 m², comes to about SAR 920 for the demolition at the square-metre rate, plus two or three debris loads. A rooftop room is partial demolition that needs separating and propping, so it is priced on inspection.

What pushes demolition costs up or down?

• Construction type: reinforced concrete is heavier to break than block or stone, but yields more steel.
• Neighbours and street: a shared wall or a narrow street means longer hand work, smaller machines and more loads.
• What is underground: a basement, pool, underground tank, septic pit or foundations you want removed.
• Amount of debris: the number of loads and the distance to the approved disposal site.
• What stays: keeping the boundary wall, the slab or part of the building calls for more careful work and more time.
• Scrap value: steel, aluminium and sound doors are deducted from the price.
• Not part of our price: Balady fees, the engineering office’s fee and asbestos removal by a specialist.

People often ask whether the price changes from one Dammam district to another. The district itself does not change it, but its conditions do. Houses in older districts stand close together on narrower streets, so they need smaller machines, longer hand work and more loads. Plots in newer districts are wider and let an excavator, a loader and a large tipper work at the same time, so the job finishes sooner. That is why we ask for the location and a photo of the street before we estimate anything.

Some costs never appear in cheap demolition quotations and then turn up later: extra debris loads, foundations nobody mentioned, street cleaning and backfilling an old septic pit. We write every one of these into the quotation from the start and state what is included and what is not, so that the figure you compare with other offers is a complete one.

How long does it take to demolish a house in Dammam?

Demolishing a house in Dammam takes from a few days on site for a small house to around two weeks for a large concrete villa, plus the permit time, which Balady puts at 1 to 10 days. Breaking out an interior wall is usually done in a few hours or a single working day. These are typical durations rather than fixed promises, because weather, street width, available trucks and what turns up underground all have an effect.

Demolish and rebuild: when is demolition better value than renovation?

Demolishing and rebuilding is better value than renovating when the damage is in the structure itself and is widespread: corrosion running through the steel of columns and slabs, settling foundations and structural cracks that keep coming back. If the trouble is in the finishes, or in limited cracks and leaks, renovation is usually far cheaper. Buildings in the Eastern Province are exposed to salts, humidity and shallow groundwater that speed up steel corrosion, so the decision should be made on an engineer’s report, not by eye.

If you decide to demolish and rebuild, make the demolition part of the building plan. Agree the new house drawings with the engineering office before demolition, decide whether the old foundations are to be removed completely, and ask for the plot to be handed over level with clear points for the surveyor. We can carry on after demolition through our building and construction service. If renovation turns out to be the better option, the details are in our renovation contractor in Dammam guide.

Demolition contract: the clauses that protect you before you sign

A good demolition contract states exactly what will be demolished and what will stay, who removes the debris and where it goes, who owns the steel, and what state the plot will be handed over in. We are not aware of an official standard template for residential demolition, but these are the clauses we write into our quotations and that you should look for in any contract:

• ✓Parties and property: owner and contractor names, title deed or survey decision number, demolition permit number and engineering office.
• ✓Scope: what is demolished, what stays (boundary wall, tank, slab, trees) and whether the foundations are removed.
• ✓Method and hours: the machines to be used, working hours in the district and the duration.
• ✓Services: who asks for the electricity meter to be removed and the water and drainage to be capped before work starts.
• ✓Debris: the estimated number of loads, the licensed carrier and handover of proof of disposal.
• ✓Scrap: who owns the steel, aluminium and doors, and how much is deducted for them.
• ✓Protecting others: the contractor’s duty to protect the neighbouring houses and the street, and a record of their condition before work starts.
• ✓Price and payments: lump sum, per m² or per load, what is excluded, and payments tied to completed stages.
• ✓Handover: a level, clean plot, photos on completion and a signed handover record.

Demolition and breaking equipment, and demolition workers in Dammam

The right machine is the one that can reach the job and do it without harming what is around it, not the biggest one available. So we choose equipment after the inspection, and a single project usually mixes heavy and light kit:

Demolition and breaking workers in Dammam

Demolition workers are not just people with hammers. The crew we send includes a machine operator who knows the top-down sequence, technicians for careful hand breaking and a supervisor who watches safety and the neighbours. We do not recommend hiring day labourers to take down a wall or a slab without supervision, because a mistake in this kind of work cannot be fixed with a coat of paint.

Demolition company in Khobar, Qatif, Jubail and across the Eastern Province

We work from Dammam across every city in the Eastern Province and arrange the visit and the equipment to suit the city and the size of the job. In Khobar there are many older apartment buildings standing shoulder to shoulder, so more of the work is done by hand next to the neighbours. In Jubail Industrial City the Royal Commission is the permitting authority. In Qatif, Tarout and Al-Ahsa there are heritage buildings that may only be dealt with through the competent authority; we demolish modern buildings only. For more distant cities, moving the equipment is priced after inspection.

Dammam districts we work in

We reach every district of Dammam, old and new, including:
