A lot of house demolition Cibolo work comes from the same place. The town grew fast, and older houses now sit on land worth more without them. Hansco tears those houses down and leaves a lot ready to build on, driving in from our yard in northeast San Antonio.
Searching house demolition near me from a farm road east of town or a subdivision off Cibolo Valley Drive? You reached a family-owned company in business since 2000. We return calls within an hour.
01
Tearing Down Old Cibolo Farmhouses on Acreage
Before the rooftops came, Cibolo was farm country, and some of those farmhouses still stand along FM 1103 and the farm roads east of town. They tend to be pier-and-beam, added onto over the decades, with a barn or pump house somewhere out back.
We take the whole set down in one mobilization. Barns, sheds and well houses fall under our outbuilding removal work and get priced on the same walkthrough. Old cisterns and septic tanks are located before the machine starts digging.
02
Salvaging Lumber and Brick From Cibolo Teardowns
Old farmhouses are full of material worth saving: old-growth pine framing, brick, tin roofing. As a certified deconstruction contractor, Hansco pulls what can be reused before the walls come down. Our recycling and deconstruction approach keeps a good share of every house demolition Cibolo job out of the landfill.
Want something saved for the new build, a mantel or a set of doors? Tell us at the walkthrough and we set it aside.
03
Cibolo Permits, Utility Cutoffs and Septic Lines
Inside city limits, the City of Cibolo issues the demolition permit. Electric has to be cut, water and sewer capped, and gas shut off at the main. Plenty of older homes outside the core never tied into sewer, so the septic tank has to be pumped and removed or properly closed.
We handle the filing and the phone calls. Paperwork stalls more house demolition Cibolo jobs than weather does, and of everything in a residential demolition, it is the part most owners would rather skip.
04
Flooded Houses Near Cibolo Creek
Cibolo Creek runs along the west side of town, and it rises fast in a hard rain. Houses on the low ground near the creek and its tributaries take the worst of it, and flooded homes make up a steady part of house demolition Cibolo calls. When a house is unsafe after high water, our 24-hour demolition crew can get there the same night.
Soaked drywall, flooring and insulation get hauled first so the structure can be assessed. If fire did the damage instead, our burned house removal team works straight with your adjuster.
05
A Build-Ready Cibolo Lot, Slab to Fence Line
After the home teardown we break out the slab or pull the piers, take the driveway, and grade the pad. Fence lines grown over with hackberry and brush get cleared through our lot clearing service. An old in-ground pool can come out with our pool removal crew while we are there.
That is how every house demolition Cibolo job should end: your builder walks onto a clean, graded lot.

Do I need a permit to tear down a house in Cibolo?
Inside city limits, yes. Outside them, Guadalupe County rules apply. We check your address and handle the filing.
Can you remove my septic tank?
Yes. We have it pumped, then remove it or close it properly as part of the job.
Can you save materials from an old farmhouse?
Yes. We pull reusable lumber, brick and metal before demolition and set aside anything you want to keep.
Do you tear down barns and sheds too?
Yes, on the same trip as the house.
What if my Cibolo house flooded?
Call any hour. We secure the site, haul the wet material and take down what is unsafe.
