Capabilities Overview

One crew. Every phase from demo to haul-off.

Lost Creek Builders coordinates the full teardown chain — structural demolition, concrete breaking, segregated hauling, container logistics, and salvage extraction — so debris never sits on your pad and disposal stays predictable.

01

Demolition

Structural and selective demolition for garages, additions, commercial interiors, and full building tear-downs with utility verification before equipment moves.

  • Full structure tear-down
  • Selective interior strip-out
  • Garage & outbuilding removal
02

Concrete Breaking

Slab, sidewalk, driveway, and footing removal with hydraulic breakers and saw-cut precision to spec depth for replacement or re-grade.

  • Foundation cut-back
  • Hardscape demolition
  • Footing extraction
03

Debris Hauling

Load-and-haul for mixed construction debris, clean fill, and segregated material streams to licensed disposal and recycling facilities.

  • Mixed C&D loads
  • Clean concrete haul-off
  • Wood-only segregation
04

Dumpsters

10, 20, and 30-yard roll-off containers for renovation, roofing tear-off, and demolition with flexible rental periods and swap-out scheduling.

  • Same-day & next-day delivery
  • Swap without jobsite downtime
  • No long-term contracts
05

Salvage

Recovery of reusable lumber, fixtures, metal, and architectural elements before demolition — reducing landfill tonnage and offsetting project cost.

  • Dimensional lumber recovery
  • Fixture & metal extraction
  • Architectural salvage sorting
06

Site Clearing & Pad Prep

After debris leaves, we rough-grade, sweep, and document the pad so foundation crews, pavers, or general contractors step onto a ready surface — not a debris field waiting for another vendor.

  • Final debris sweep
  • Rough grade to plan
  • Handoff documentation

High-Plains Ready

Freeze-thaw soils, tight alley access, and university-town renovation schedules — our crews plan for Laramie's real jobsite constraints, not generic demo playbooks.

Service Deep Dive

What each scope includes on your jobsite.

Every Lost Creek project is scoped in writing before the first wall comes down. Below is how we break down the five core disciplines on active Laramie and Albany County jobs.

Demolition

Structural & Selective

We demolish structures methodically — top-down when height is a factor, mechanical when volume demands it. Interior selective demolition strips kitchens, bathrooms, and commercial fit-outs while preserving adjacent spaces your project still needs.

Before equipment arrives, we confirm utility disconnects, establish access routes for dumpsters and haul trucks, and identify hazmat concerns that require separate handling.

Residential

  • Garage and shed tear-down
  • Addition removal for rebuild
  • Pre-renovation interior demo
  • Fire-damaged structure removal

Commercial

  • Retail strip-out
  • Office fit-out demolition
  • Warehouse partition removal
  • Multi-phase phased demo
Concrete

Breaking & Removal

Concrete work is scoped by thickness, reinforcement, and disposal path. We break slabs, sidewalks, driveways, and footings to the depth your replacement plan requires — then haul clean concrete separately when tipping rates allow.

Hydraulic breakers handle mass removal; saw-cutting defines clean edges at transitions to remaining pavement or foundation walls.

Typical Scope

  • 4″–8″ slab removal
  • Driveway & apron demo
  • Sidewalk & curb removal
  • Footing & pier extraction

Disposal Paths

  • Clean concrete recycling
  • Mixed debris containers
  • On-site stockpile & later haul
  • Crush-for-fill when approved
Hauling

Debris Transport

Our hauling fleet moves debris from your pad to licensed facilities — not a broker dispatching unknown trucks. Loads are segregated when possible: wood-only, clean concrete, and mixed C&D each follow the disposal path that keeps your tipping costs honest.

We coordinate haul timing with your dumpster swaps and demolition pace so piles never block access for the next trade.

Load Types

  • Mixed construction debris
  • Clean fill & soil
  • Segregated wood loads
  • Metal scrap haul-off

Scheduling

  • Same-day emergency haul
  • Phased multi-day pulls
  • GC-coordinated timing
  • Weight ticket documentation
Our Process

Six controlled steps from walk-through to clean pad.

Demolition without a written sequence is how utilities get cut wrong and debris sits for weeks. Lost Creek follows a documented workflow on every job.

01

Site Walk

Assess structure, access, utilities, hazmat indicators, and debris volume. Establish dumpster placement and haul routes.

02

Scope & Permit

Written scope with demolition method, disposal plan, and timeline. Advise on City of Laramie permit requirements.

03

Salvage Pass

Extract reusable lumber, fixtures, and metals before structural demo. Sort on-site for resale, donation, or owner retention.

04

Demo & Break

Mechanical demolition and hydraulic concrete breaking to spec. Debris loaded continuously into containers or haul trucks.

05

Haul & Dispose

Segregated loads to licensed facilities. Weight tickets and disposal documentation provided on request.

06

Pad Handoff

Final sweep, rough grade, and site photo documentation. Pad ready for foundation, paving, or next trade.

Equipment & Fleet

Owned equipment. Local dispatch.

Lost Creek maintains demolition equipment and roll-off containers locally — drop-offs, swaps, and hauls run on your schedule, not a regional call center queue.

Excavators

Structural demolition, mass concrete breaking, and site clearing with thumb attachment for selective tear-down.

SK

Skid Steers

Interior strip-out, tight-access demo, and debris loading in alleys and confined Laramie lots.

BR

Breakers

Full tear-down and commercial strip-out volumes with swap service during active demo.

Dumpster Rental

Roll-off containers sized for your debris volume.

Lost Creek Builders provides roll-off dumpsters for demolition, renovation, and construction debris across Laramie. We drop, swap, and pick up on your timeline — no long-term contracts required.

Size Best For Typical Load Notes
10-Yard Small renovations, garage cleanouts, single-room strip-outs, roofing tear-offs on smaller homes ~3 pickup loads of mixed debris Fits most residential driveways and alley placements in Laramie
20-Yard Medium remodels, multi-room interiors, siding tear-offs, selective demolition phases ~6 pickup loads of mixed debris Most popular size for active renovation jobsites
30-Yard Full structure tear-downs, commercial strip-outs, large debris volumes, multi-week demo phases ~9 pickup loads of mixed debris Swap service recommended during continuous demolition
Accepted in Mixed Debris Wood, drywall, roofing, siding, concrete chunks, and general construction debris.
Separate Disposal Required Hazardous materials, liquids, tires, appliances with refrigerants, and asbestos-containing materials.
Segregation Saves Money Clean concrete and wood-only loads often qualify for lower tipping rates — ask before loading.

Same-day and next-day delivery available for most Laramie addresses when containers are in stock. Weekend drop-offs can be arranged for active jobsites with advance notice.

We coordinate container placement with your demolition schedule — swap full boxes mid-project so debris never blocks equipment access or the next trade.

Salvage Program

Recover value before the walls come down.

Not everything coming down belongs in a landfill. Lost Creek identifies and extracts salvageable materials before demolition equipment moves in — reducing disposal costs and keeping tonnage out of Wyoming landfills.

Dimensional Lumber

Framing lumber, hardwood flooring, and trim pulled carefully for reuse markets, owner retention, or donation to local building material exchanges.

Fixtures & Finishes

Cabinets, doors, windows, lighting, and plumbing fixtures removed intact when condition and access allow pre-demo extraction.

Metals

Structural steel, copper, aluminum siding, and rebar separated on-site for scrap recycling — often offsetting a portion of demo cost.

Architectural Elements

Beams, mantels, brick, stone, and period details cataloged and removed for architectural salvage buyers and restoration projects.

Documentation

Inventory lists for owner-retained materials, donation receipts, and scrap weight tickets for project accounting.

Landfill Reduction

Salvage-first sequencing routinely cuts mixed debris volume by 15–30% on residential tear-downs with recoverable framing.

Salvage is not an add-on — it is step three in our standard process. Materials come out before breakers and excavators move in, when extraction is safest and recovery rates are highest.

FAQ

Questions before you book demo or dumpsters.

What property owners, GCs, and property managers ask most often about demolition, hauling, and roll-off service in Laramie.

Do I need a permit for demolition in Laramie?

Most structural demolitions require a permit from the City of Laramie. We advise on permit requirements during the site walk and coordinate timing with your approval window.

How quickly can you drop a dumpster?

Same-day and next-day delivery is available for most Laramie addresses when containers are in stock. Call early for weekend drop-offs on active jobsites.

What can go in a mixed debris dumpster?

Wood, drywall, roofing, siding, concrete, and general construction debris are accepted. Hazardous materials, liquids, tires, and appliances require separate disposal — ask before loading.

Do you handle utility disconnects?

Utility disconnects are the property owner's responsibility with the utility provider. We verify lines are capped and safe before mechanical demolition begins.

Is salvage included in demolition scope?

Salvage extraction is part of our standard process when recoverable materials are present. We discuss salvage goals during the site walk and document retained or donated items.

Can you break concrete without full demolition?

Yes. We scope standalone concrete breaking for driveways, sidewalks, patios, and footings — with or without a full structure tear-down on the same project.

Do you work as a GC subcontractor?

Yes. We regularly serve as the demolition and debris subcontractor on new construction and commercial tenant improvement projects, coordinating with framing and foundation schedules.

How do you price demolition projects?

Pricing reflects structure size, debris volume, concrete scope, salvage requirements, access constraints, and disposal paths. We provide a written estimate after the site walk — not a phone guess.
