Demolition · Whitewater, WI

Tear It Down, Clear It Out

Sometimes the first step in a project is getting rid of what’s already there. Proper Grounds handles small-scale demolition across Whitewater, Lake Geneva, Elkhorn and across southern Wisconsin — tearing down and clearing sheds, old outbuildings, small structures, fences, concrete slabs, and debris, then leveling the site so it’s ready for the next step.

We focus on the residential and light-commercial end — the kind of demo that pairs naturally with clearing and site prep, not large structural or commercial teardowns. If your job is bigger than that, we’ll tell you straight and point you to the right contractor.

Because we also clear land and do dirt work, we can knock down the structure, haul off the debris, and grade the spot clean and level in one coordinated job — so you’re not lining up three different crews just to get one lot ready.

Choosing a Pro

What to Look for in a Demolition Company

Honest about scope

We’re built for small-scale demo — sheds, slabs, outbuildings, debris — and we’ll tell you up front if your job needs a structural or commercial demolition contractor.

They haul it off and level it

Knocking it down is half the job. We remove the debris and grade the spot clean and level so you’re actually ready for the next step.

One crew for demo + clearing + grading

Because we clear and do dirt work, we can take a lot from “old structure” to clean, build-ready ground in one job — no juggling contractors.

Careful around what stays

We protect the buildings, trees, and utilities you’re keeping while we take down what you’re not.

Free, guaranteed pricing

A firm, free on-site estimate backed by our price-match guarantee — no surprises.

FAQ

Demolition — Common Questions

Questions about demolition in Whitewater or across southern Wisconsin? Here are the ones we hear most — and we’re glad to talk through yours.

Call 262-249-6360

How much does demolition cost?
It depends on the size and type of structure, what it’s made of, debris haul-off, and access — so there’s no flat rate. We give you a firm price after seeing it, every estimate is free, and it’s backed by our price-match guarantee.
What can you demolish?
Small-scale, mostly residential and light-commercial work — sheds, decks, old outbuildings, fences, concrete slabs and pads, and debris. For large structural or commercial teardowns we’ll point you to the right contractor.
Do you haul away the debris?
Yes — demolition isn’t done until the debris is gone. We tear it down, haul it off, and leave the site clean.
Can you remove a concrete slab or old foundation?
Yes — we break out and remove concrete slabs, pads, and small foundations, then grade the spot so it’s level and usable.
Will you level the site after?
Always. Once the structure and debris are gone, we grade the spot clean and level so it’s ready for landscaping, building, or whatever comes next.
Can you do the demo and clear the lot in one job?
Yes — that’s the advantage of working with us. We knock down the structure, haul the debris, clear the brush, and grade the ground, all with one crew.
What’s too big for you to take on?
Large multi-story structures, commercial buildings, and anything needing structural or hazardous-material demolition. We stick to small-scale work and will tell you straight if your job is beyond it.

“I couldn’t be happier with the work Proper Grounds did on my property. They cleared a heavily overgrown section of my backyard and completely transformed the area. Ian and his crew were professional, hardworking, and efficient — they arrived on time, communicated clearly, and left the site clean. The backyard looks larger, cleaner, and much more usable. Highly recommend!”
