I was a Heavy Equipment operator for a Big Demolition company in Dallas Texas! For many years we had to separate the Brick/concrete/and the wood the Landfill wouldn’t take mixed materials!

It’s still like that. Everything has to be separated so it can be taken to the recycling depot.

These machines are incredibly powerful, and they seem almost alive the way they move around.

That was a 50-60 year old block house. With a chrisp roof line. Sure, it would have taken a lot of money, but it would have looked better than the cheaply built crap in the background. I enjoyed this video.

@Calamity_Jack 5 ай бұрын

Yeah, a LOT of money. Those roof boards, for example, were really weathered, old and worn. I agree, though, that the house had a waaay more character than those gerbil boxes in the background. The lumber in those roof joists, though... sigh. Can't get quality wood like that anymore. It's all cheap, fast-growing pine. Unfortunately, it's more cost-efficient these days to erect huge multi-tenant cardboard rodent houses. I weep for the future.

Great video. Did the cinder block and slab get recycled? Nice on bringing everything into one pile

@roberthughes2665 6 ай бұрын

The metal scrap yard I take metal to has a big ball of fencing that he uses to sweep the deck so gets all the little stuff people don't throw far enough. They don't have an electro magnet

Do you guys not keep cinderblock separate from the waste? That what we do otherwise the waste disposal fee would be huge. Cinderblock and concrete can get recycled/processed down to gravel. Curious your thoughts?

Seriously though, I love how all the structural engineers come out of the woodwork in the comment sections of demo videos.

Do you recycle any of the material...metal, concrete for example or is it not cost effective?

@masterhec0 6 ай бұрын

are these demos usually for redevelopment?

@HomeWreckerBrian 6 ай бұрын

Yes, usually, but as of today, it's still just an empty field.

i'm guessing the house had structural issues? And since you mentioned smell, the sewer/drain system malfunctioned? otherwise, good demo~

Plot couldn't possibly be worth more with a different structure on it. That would never be sufficient reason...

@Calamity_Jack 5 ай бұрын

Seeing those newer-looking apartment/condos in the background, it's possible the owners bought out the property for an expansion.

This house reminds me of the punk house I lived in back in the 80’s, except the punk house was much nicer than this place! I’m sorry, why does this place even need a front door??? 😂

You know the grabber on that machine kind of looks like a monster mouth you know I haven't realized that it kind of looks cool seeing its mouth open and open tearing the house down with its teeth and stuff yeah it's kind of cool watching it but I still feel bad for the house getting tore down a homeless family could have lived in that or maybe some memories inside of that house what's my psychopaths or nice lovely family or something I don't know😅 yeah that's pretty sad though I mean if I was homeless I was living in that house 😔

Cinder block home... horrible R value. So a person studs out the interior walls and insulates. That reduce the foot print while enjoying the cost of two walls.

@cathiwim 5 ай бұрын

The entire house would probably fit in one dumpster!

What are they building in in its place? The house could have been refurbed but it’s still dated.

@cathiwim 5 ай бұрын

The renovation to bring it up to code is more than the finished house could be s9ld for.
