Condemned 100-Year-Old Shed Teardown, Everett, WA

A 100-year-old shed, condemned and unsafe, brought down and hauled off — the site left graded flat and clean.

This shed was a century old, condemned, and a genuine safety hazard — the kind of structure you tape off and keep people away from. The owners needed it gone.

DirtRaptor brought it down in a controlled teardown, sorted and hauled off the debris, and graded the ground flat afterward. What was a caution-taped hazard turned into a clean, level lot ready for whatever comes next.

What to know before tearing down an old outbuilding

Old sheds, garages and barns are some of the most common demolition calls we get, and many in older Everett neighborhoods date to the early 1900s. Before any structure comes down in Snohomish County, plan for an asbestos survey by a certified inspector and notice to the Puget Sound Clean Air Agency, along with any permit the city requires and disconnecting power or water if the building had them.

Once the paperwork is done, the teardown itself moves fast. The key is planning where the debris goes: sorting concrete, metal and clean wood for recycling and hauling the rest so nothing sits in a pile on your property.
