What’s included
Torvik Hauling handles the light-demolition jobs that full-service contractors don't want and DIY homeowners shouldn't attempt. We safely dismantle and remove decks, sheds, fences, playsets, hot tubs, and above-ground pools — plus interior non-structural demo like cabinets, vanities, flooring, and drywall. Every job includes debris haul-away and cleanup, so you're left with a clear footprint ready for whatever's next. We're equipped for heavy loads (concrete, scrap metal) and unusual items most haulers won't touch.
- Deck, fence, and pergola removal
- Shed and outbuilding demolition + haul-away
- Hot tub and above-ground pool removal
- Playset and swing-set dismantling
- Interior demo: cabinets, vanities, flooring, drywall (non-structural)
Why homeowners pick Torvik
- One crew for demo + haul-away — no coordinating dumpster rental
- Equipped for heavy items (hot tubs, concrete, steel) others decline
- Insured — your property and neighbors are protected during demo
- Property left level and swept, ready for re-build or re-landscape

What customers say
Real light demolition reviews
“Super fast and professional. They took a rather challenging job that I have had others deny in the past. They were well equipped with tools to demo and remove an existing steel furnace drum that was original to a hundred year old house. Glad to finally have my space back in my basement. Torvik will be my go-to contractor in my personal and professional projects.”
“Prompt, speedy, affordable and a pleasure to work with. Showed up and removed our hot tub and made sure the area was all cleaned up when he was done.”
