We handle demolition in Turlock, about 16 miles from our Riverbank base. Turlock is the second largest city in Stanislaus County after Modesto, with about 72,000 people. It sits between Modesto and Merced, where State Route 99 meets State Route 165. Your demolition permit comes from the Turlock Building and Safety Division at 156 S. Broadway, Suite 130. The California Building Code, as the city states it, wants a separate permit for each building or structure. Your asbestos notification goes to the Valley Air District Northern Region office at 4800 Enterprise Way in Modesto. We have run this work as a family company since 1967.
We bring asbestos removal and abatement to Turlock, along with interior demolition and residential demolition. Commercial building demolition and concrete demolition run on the same sites. Houses and two to three story commercial buildings are our sweet spot. High reach work goes to partner contractors instead. Interior demolition takes a tenant space back to the shell, and concrete demolition covers slabs and foundations. We also handle flooring removal, sandblasting and hydro blasting. Our licenses are CSLB #247684 and CAL OSHA #507. Estimates are free, and we look at the building first. Call (209) 652-9206 and tell us what needs to come down.

Census figures put Turlock's median year built at 1984. About 43 percent of the city's housing went up before 1980, and the 1970s were the biggest single decade. Materials from those years often hold asbestos in floor tile, mastic, popcorn ceilings, duct wrap and siding.
Stanislaus County sits inside the San Joaquin Valley Air Pollution Control District. That district wants a notification for any regulated demolition, whether or not asbestos is present. The form has to reach the district at least ten working days before demolition begins. A Cal/OSHA certified inspector writes the survey report that travels with it.
The district then signs a Demolition Permit Release form, and Turlock's project submittal checklist lists that clearance. The city wants it before the demolition permit issues. Cal/OSHA registration covers asbestos work of 100 square feet or more, and we carry CAL OSHA #507. Testing is a separate trade in California, so send us the consultant's report. Our asbestos removal in Turlock then pulls the regulated material.
Turlock was founded in 1871 by John Mitchell and incorporated in 1908. The original downtown core grew around the railroad station, on a grid oriented to the tracks. Fires in 1893 and 1907 destroyed many early downtown buildings, so much of downtown was rebuilt after 1907. Historic buildings still line Main Street and Golden State Boulevard.
Growth since the 1940s has run north of downtown and east of the railroad. Almost all recent housing sits north of Monte Vista Avenue, east of the tracks. The older neighborhoods, those within about one mile of downtown, are where teardowns come up. Our house demolition in Turlock starts with a hand strip, then smaller machines take the structure down.
Older automobile oriented commercial development lines Golden State Boulevard and clusters just south of downtown. Community commercial uses run from downtown north along Geer Road to CSU Stanislaus. Emanuel Medical Center sits northeast of downtown, and Monte Vista Crossings and the Northwest Triangle hold the newer retail. Our commercial demolition in Turlock fits two and three story buildings.
Most industry sits immediately south of the downtown core, along the railroad. More sits just west of the SR 99 and Lander Avenue interchange. The general plan names Foster Farms, Sensient Flavors, Kozy Shack and Valley Fresh as local food processors. A 2005 fire destroyed most of the vacant Tri-Valley cannery on South Golden State Boulevard. Concrete demolition in Turlock follows, because slabs and footings stay behind.
The Turlock Irrigation District is the retail electric utility in Turlock. TID was formed in 1887 as the first irrigation district in California. It also serves Ceres, south Modesto, Keyes and Denair. The electric disconnect for a Turlock teardown runs through TID, so ask early.
Flooring removal and surface preparation comes up in Turlock's older commercial and institutional buildings. The Stanislaus County Fairgrounds cover 67 acres northwest of downtown, and CSU Stanislaus holds 210 acres along Geer Road. Sheet vinyl and tile in older buildings often sit in hard adhesive on the slab. Our flooring removal in Turlock pulls the covering, and hydro blasting at 40,000 psi takes the adhesive off. Sand and slurry blasting runs mobile, on site.
