How we help

  • At the walk-through we tell you what paperwork your job is likely to need.
  • We haul the debris on our own trucks, so one crew knows where every load went.
  • We can usually start within 48 hours of your go-ahead. On permitted work the start date follows the permit.

Checked against the City of Los Altos's Demolition Permit Requirements & Instructions in October 2026. Rules and forms change, so confirm with the city before you plan around them.
