Safe, Controlled Tear-Downs to Prepare Your Site for What’s Next
Whether you’re removing an old shed, a worn-out garage, or a small residential structure, demolition is the first critical step toward progress. At SoIL Excavating, we offer demolition services throughout Carbondale, Murphysboro, Marion, Carterville, and the surrounding Southern Illinois region.

Cost of Demolition Services in Southern Illinois
Demolition pricing depends on:
Size and type of structure
Materials to be removed (wood, metal, concrete, etc.)
Access to the site
Debris hauling and disposal volume
We’ll give you a flat-rate or line-item estimate based on your specific project.
Demolition may seem simple, but one wrong cut or missed utility line can cause major setbacks. Our experienced team knows how to bring down structures safely — with full awareness of buried utilities, environmental controls, and post-demo land needs.
