What Demohaulic Did

The homeowner hired the contractor, who hired Demohaulic for the demolition. The contractor prepared the house and disconnected the waterlines. Demohaulic then carefully removed the door and vanity with sink so they could be reused. Demohaulic removed and disposed of the toilet, tub, tub surround, tiled floor and its mud bed. After sweeping, remaining staples were removed or nailed down. A shop vac picked up leftover debris; Demohaulic cleaned up, hooked up the trailer and left. The subfloor was ready for preparation, not installation.
