Wolf Creek Dirt Works is a demolition contractor serving Sturgeon Lake and the towns around it. We take down old houses, cabins, garages, barns and sheds, and the concrete foundation comes out too. Then we haul the debris away and leave the ground ready for the next build.

Some rural parcels around Sturgeon Lake come with an old farmhouse or a sagging barn on them. When an old building sits where the new home will go, it comes down first. Our demolition services cover the whole building, foundation included.
If trees and brush have grown in around the old buildings, land clearing opens the ground back up. With the buildings gone, the work moves on to site preparation for the new house. That is where the basement gets dug and the house pad gets graded.
Foundation removal takes out the concrete under the building: the basement walls and the floor slab. We break that concrete up and haul it away.
Concrete breaking and hauling also covers old steps and sidewalks around the house. Driveway removal breaks up an old driveway, and a new gravel driveway can go in its place.
A city's rules can spell out how far foundation removal goes. In Duluth, a wrecking permit calls for every foundation wall and floor slab to come out. The hole is then filled and graded so water drains away.
Minnesota requires hazardous and problem wastes to come out of a building before it is demolished. The Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) applies that rule to every structure, farm buildings included. Its list includes appliances, electronics, fuel oil, fluorescent bulbs and asbestos, such as old pipe wrap.
Those items have to be out at least two days before the demolition date. If any asbestos stays in the part that comes down, all of the debris counts as asbestos waste. The MPCA says lead paint can stay on the walls of a building that is coming down.
Before the foundation comes out, a locate ticket goes in through Gopher State One Call (811). Minnesota law calls for at least 48 hours of notice. Those hours start the day after the call and skip weekends and holidays.
