Drouco has been serving Manchester, NH families for over 50 years, and demolition contractor is one of the calls we get most often here. Manchester is the Queen City — three-deckers and the old Amoskeag millyard downtown, leafy streets on the North End, the busy West Side across the river, and newer homes out toward Lake Massabesic. From Elm Street and the North End to Rimmon Heights and the South End, we know the city, the one-way streets, and where to put the truck. Whether you're up on the North End or across the river on the West Side, we know the route — and we've been doing this work for three generations.
Drouco operates as a demolition contractor for small residential structures: sheds, detached garages, decks, screen porches, additions, pool houses, chicken coops, swing sets, and similar. We handle the tear-down, the load-out, and the proper disposal of all materials. over 50 years of work in New Hampshire means we know the permit landscape and the right transfer stations.

Why Manchester calls us

That's not a marketing line — it's how we've stayed in business this long.

- Tricky itemsManchester picks up weekly trash and recycling at the curb, but bulky items, appliances, and electronics are flat-out banned from the carts. Those have to go to the Drop-Off Facility on Dunbarton Road (weekdays plus the 1st and 3rd Saturday) or you schedule a paid curbside bulky pickup through SWEP and wait for the appointment. Old fridges, washers, TVs — none of it goes out with the regular trash. Drouco just takes it, same-day, no appointment.
FAQ
Questions Manchester homeowners ask
What kind of demolition work do you do in Manchester?
Small residential structures — sheds, garages, decks, additions, screen porches, swing sets, chicken coops, pool houses. We don't do full house demolitions; for that you want a heavy-equipment outfit.
Do I need a permit?
Depends on the structure and the Manchester building department. Small sheds and decks usually don't; detached garages and additions usually do. We'll tell you what we know.
How much does demolition cost in Manchester?
Varies widely by structure size and disposal volume. We quote on-site after we see the work.
Do you handle asbestos or lead?
No — those require certified abatement contractors. If we suspect either is present, we'll flag it and recommend the right specialist before any work starts.
How quickly can you start?
Most Manchester small-structure demolitions can be scheduled within 1–2 weeks.
