I can't even begin to explain how wonderful the Shoemaker Demo team is. We have used them 3 times now. First time was through a contractor. The other two projects we independently reached out. Daniel has such amazing attention to detail. This is the go to if you need clean up or demo work. I'm so appreciative of them. I contracted them to do demo for my parents house and I'm so glad I chose them. If yelp let me give bonus stars they'd get them! I'd also like to add, which I should have prior, so I'm updating after my mother told me too ;) Daniel guided us through the process post fire clean up. (Mountain wild fire). The guidance was so incredible. He knew all the details of the process! read more

I found Shoemaker Demolition on Yelp when I needed my kitchen demolished prior to cabinet installation, and I couldn't be happier with the service and the results. Daniel was so kind and helpful - he made the entire process incredibly easy. He was able to get the demo done in a single day and even trimmed down the bar-height pony wall so we could make the counter one height. The crew carefully protected surfaces in the home from dust and debris and cleaned up before they left. When they hauled away the debris, they were nice enough to take a few closet doors leftover from my ongoing renovation. Daniel worked with me to coordinate with other contractor schedules, and he even suggested another contractor to manage plumbing, electrical, and other needed tasks. He turned out to be great, too. TBH, the demo ended up being the easiest part of this whole process. After so many people telling me they wouldn't do stuff, it was a breath of fresh air to have someone say, "Yeah, no problem, I can help you." Daniel and his crew are just fantastic - I only wish they could have installed my kitchen, as well! read more

I had seen the guys at Shoemaker Demolition in action several times before. Demoing a hillside home, doing flood debris remediation and more. When our home had a water incursion event I rang Daniel, about what was a very challenging problem, and within a day he arrived onsite to give me his very professional opinion on options to manage the remediation. Later, as the work proceeded, I rang Daniel to schedule removal of the buckled wood flooring. His guys arrived on time and worked efficiently and rapidly, handling a complicated removal and leaving the site spic and span. I cannot imagine a more skilled or better service than what I just experienced. read more

The crew that came to our house to demo our pool and patio was incredible. They were efficient and meticulous and genuinely nice guys. I shared some before and after photos. The finish product, which only took a couple of days, is something my family can be proud of. I can't wait to enjoy our first picnic where our pool used to be. Thanks Shoemaker! read more

Outstanding company on all fronts. I was so impressed with the owner and his tradesmen. It doesn't get better than this company regarding knowledge, professionalism, and work in the demolition trade. An outstanding experience with Daniel and his team, led by the very crafty Terry to demo and remove a VERY formidable concrete spa from our backyard. Jackhammers initially proved no match and I then called Daniel. He brought his equipment out to finally get the backyard spa demo'ed and hauled away. Over 10 inches of concrete on all sides with rebar throughout. Very courteous and considerate team as well, and the end result looked perfect and everything extremely clean as if the job never happened. Highly recommend Shoemaker Demolition. read more

This company was amazing! We needed our old garage, torn down and concrete removed. And a new gravel long driveway put in. Daniel was amazing! He gave us a fair price and got the permits we needed and had his crew do an excellent job! They worked hard,on time and cleaned up everything and did such an awesome job! I'd highly recommend them and will be calling them again for future projects. Thank you Daniel Shoemaker and your great crew! read more

I had a patio overhang that I needed demolished. I contacted Shoemaker Demolition and received a quote within hours. The crew came out two days later and removed the overhang cleaned up all the debris and took it away. The entire experience was exceptional and Daniel and his crew were very professional start to finish. Thank you Daniel! read more

This review is long overdue. Briefly, the homeowners insurance required pool demolition/fill to continue having the insurance coverage. We contacted multiple companies for bids, but felt most comfortable with Shoemaker Demolition because of the excellent communication, responsive interaction . The bid was itemized, and everything was explained clearly. every step of the way, there was constant communication as I was offsite (in Orange County) The work was done in a timely manner, completed on time as we had a hard deadline. when we asked that they do some finishing touches at the end, they listened to customer concern and completed the work. They also did an excellent job cleaning up, afterwards. I would recommend Shoemaker demolition to family and friends. If you are looking for a company with integrity, professionalism and customer service, contact Shoemaker Demolition for your next project. God Bess :) read more

Daniel and his team were truly unbelievable. They took on a very hard job on the edge of a mountain and made it look easy. They were organized, clean, fast, kind and kept my picky neighbors happy. I am truly moved by my experience with them and would hire them again and again. Working with them changed my perspective on what's possible with hard projects. Full trust. read more

We needed our front yard bushes removed and Shoemaker Demolition came to the rescue! They gave us a fair quote. They took all the stubborn roots up as well. They brought a mini excavator and had there own hauling trailer. They did a great job and I would recommend this company to anyone who needs demo work done. They were very clean and didn't leave a mess. read more

We had our pool filled in. Shoemaker Demolition did a great job. There were some initial scheduling issues, but once they were here they were efficient and professional in every way. Communication was great and in every step. The few issues that occurred were addressed and dealt with immediately. The crew and lead were informative and knowledgeable and answered any questions I had. The cost was fair and reasonable for the work performed, and the project took less time than expected. read more

Despite calling late on Friday, Daniel returned my call the same day and made an appointment to give an estimate Monday morning. I had a rock and concrete water feature built against the house that had to be removed. He looked the job over, described his approach, identified possible problem areas, discussed options, and we set Wednesday as our start date. Daniel and the team arrived on time and went right to it. They jack hammered away until the structure was down and hauled away all the debris. They spared choice rocks at my request and relocated them to my planter for me (not an easy task considering the size and weight of these rocks). Then they raked and leveled the dirt where the fountain was, covered the exposed siding in plastic, and swept the area clean. I'm very pleased with the result, will call Shoemaker again for future demo jobs, and highly recommend them for your demolition projects. read more

I have only one complaint. WHY can I only give 5 stars?? I want to give 10 Stars instead! This is my SECOND TIME using Shoemaker Demolition to demo a whole house! They are one of my greatest 'finds' when I searched for good and reliable demo teams and I will never ever work with any other demo team again. They are one of the most important parts of my projects and because of their professional and highly competent team, they deliver a 'clean canvas' for me to start my 'creations' time and again STRESSFREE. I see Daniel and his team as integral part of my construction family now and can not imagine doing any of my projects without them ever again. If you want a super well-done and stress-free start to your project, do not even search any further. This will be the number that you will save / have to save on your phone! I HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND Shoemaker Demolition. I am already lining up my next house that I WILL be using them !! Thank You, Daniel and Team! You truly are THE BEST! Cindy K. read more

I am very happy to review Shoemaker Demolition. From start to finish, they were a pleasure to work with. They showed up on time and did additional work that was needed promptly and without issue. Daniel was very responsive, friendly and easy to work with. We look forward to working with him and his team again. Thank you! read more

We hired Daniel to remove all of the sod we had installed over 5 months ago for our dog run. It was 25' by 6' and 6" deep, he also remove a lot of dirt under the sod. It was a dirt job, the sod had not been able to drain because of our hard clay under the sod. Daniel set an appointment to come to our house to review the job and quote the job. He showed up ON TIME, which is rare. He quoted the job we agreed on the price, he scheduled the day, he showed up on time and completed the job. He surprised us because he spent the time to sweep the walkways from our backyard all the way to the street. I would recommend Shoemaker Hauling without hesitation. I have attached a couple of before and after photos. We actually hired him a second time to remove another 5" of dirt from the same area. Most of it was very hard clay that he had to use a pickaxe on. Another beautiful job. read more

Daniel and his crew were great. Showed up on the date requested and performed all my demo work in a professional and expedient manner. Guys were very respectful of our property and always asked which items we wanted to save. I have been a general contractor for forty two years (recently retired) so I have worked with other demo companies in the past. Shoemaker was competitively priced and would highly recommend them! read more

I had to remove some pavers and concrete, and a few inches of dirt underneath, and called Daniel for help. It was only about 1 cubic yard, maybe 1.5 cubic yards of material and the only dumpster rentals available for dirt/concrete were 10 cubic yards, which I knew there was no way I would come close to filling, so the cost for that much space wasn't justified. Daniel was able to make quick work of the job, and was super friendly on top of it all! I highly recommend his service to anyone that needs demolition, hauling, concrete work, or even interior renovation help. I'll definitely call him again next time I need something similar. read more

I have only 1 word for Daniel and his crew! WOW!! These guys are amazing. Daniel was incredibly responsive from the 1st time I contacted him. He's very punctual and professional. I bought a new house that needed to be completely demo. Kitchen, 4 bathrooms, 2,200 sqf of flooring. They got it done in 1 day. These guys don't mess around. They worked so hard non stop that day. I could tell they knew exactly what they were doing. Very impressive. They left the place completely clean of debris. Everything was cleaned and swept. Hopefully I never have to do another demo, but if I do, I'll definitely use Daniel and his crew. I highly recommend them! read more

His team quickly executed the job and were thoughtful throughout the whole process ensuring we were satisfied customers.

The added bonus, Daniel referred us to an awesome fence company who is currently installing a new one for us! read more

Daniel is extremely courteous and eager to please. We needed to work quickly after escrow closed on our house to meet a move in timeline. Daniel was very prompt with getting us a quote quickly and thoroughly, getting us on his schedule right away and getting the job completed better than expected. He helped us remove flooring, wall mirrors, rock on a fireplace, sheds, etc. The place was left very clean and ready for construction to begin. Highly recommend! read more

Daniel and his crew were awesome. Professional, hard working and CLEAN. We were remodeling our mater bedroom and bathroom. They were very careful and did not touch anything except what was to be removed and they kept the demo area clean. When they were done the work area was clean and ready for the framing and other work to start with all the plaster and dirt swept or vacuumed. I have remodeled 4 houses and they are the best demo team I have ever used. I am using them again in about 6 weeks for the kitchen. read more

Excellent, clean and fast ! Thank you to the Shoemaker Demolition team! They did an amazing job! Thank you Sepi read more

We presented Daniel with a challenging job which was to demo and indoor exercise pool (like a Swim Gym). We live in an area that's difficult to access, so that was the first challenge Daniel figured out. He recommended to permit the job as the pool is on the original plan for the home and upon a sale any inspector would want to know where the demoed pool went! If you don't have a permit everything gets complicated and the sale likely goes away. Daniel pulled the permits and did it promptly, also arranging for the inspector to come in at every phase of the work. Ultimately the pool got demoed and Daniel's pricing was quite fair. I'm very happy I went with Shoemaker Demolition. read more

Highly recommend Daniel to everyone. He shows up when he says he will, always clean and respectful and does a great job. His prices are reasonable and he knows how to get the job done right. Save yourself time and money and hire Daniel! read more

Shoemaker Demolition and the team were amazing. They scheduled the job quickly and were on time the day of the work. They took down a large shed/chicken coop and did a great job. They got right to work and before I knew it, the shed/coop was gone. They left the area clean and were fast at getting the job done. Daniel and grew were professional and I am looking to hire them again for a different demo job. Definitely recommend Shoemaker Demolition to anyone who needs some demo work done. read more

I had a long, 35 foot, 1950 RV trailer that could not be moved out of the yard. It had to be demolished in place. A very tight job because of neighboring buildings. Daniel Shoemaker did a fantastic job pulling it apart and disposing of it in one day. No collateral damage. I was completely astonished by the speed, thoroughness, and cleanliness. So if you have a big demolition job, he's the guy to pick. read more
