Demolition is the main work at Elite Excavation Services. From New Iberia, we tear down houses, mobile homes, garages, barns, carports and small commercial buildings. We also break out concrete slabs, driveways and old foundations. We look at every job in person before quoting, and the number is (337) 201-0594.
Most jobs sit within 35 to 50 miles of New Iberia, across Acadiana. That covers Iberia, Lafayette, St. Martin, Vermilion, St. Landry, Acadia and St. Mary parishes. If you are looking up demolition companies near me, we run out of New Iberia and stay in Acadiana. Estimates are free.

House demolition is most of what we do. Some are fire damaged, some are rentals that got too far gone to fix. Others are old family homes on a lot someone wants to build on. A mini excavator takes the structure down, and the material loads into containers.
Mobile home demolition comes next. We pull the skirting and steps, cut the home into sections, and haul it out. Garages, barns, carports, metal sheds and small commercial buildings come down the same way. Thick brush around a building becomes land clearing on overgrown lots.
Old concrete cracks and sinks until it turns into a trip hazard. We break out driveways, slabs, walkways and shop floors with a hammer attachment. Rebar and wire mesh come out with the pieces. Once the slab is gone, we fill the hole and pack the ground back down.
Broken concrete is heavy, so it loads into roll-off containers and leaves the site. Construction debris goes to an approved landfill, and Louisiana forbids burning it on the lot. Bigger grading or a new house pad falls under dirt work to level the lot. Old piles left from a storm are their own job, covered on debris removal after a storm.
Inside New Iberia city limits, yes. The city's Permit and Inspection Department issues demolition permits, and its rules cover demolishing a house or other structure. Outside the city limits, the Iberia Parish Permit Office covers building codes for the parish, so check there first. Other parishes and towns run their own offices, including Lafayette Consolidated Government for demolition in Lafayette.
Louisiana's asbestos rules sit on top of the local permit. LDEQ exempts a residential building with four or fewer dwelling units from its asbestos notification rule. That exemption goes away on commercial work, or on a house tied to a planned commercial or public project. Those jobs can need a notification filed with LDEQ at least 10 working days ahead.

Debris removal for piles too heavy to move by hand. We load construction, demolition and storm debris with an excavator or track loader. The load leaves in a roll-off container or dump trailer.

We dig farm and recreational ponds on the clay around New Iberia. We also dredge ponds that have silted in and rebuild banks that went shallow. On crawfish ponds we handle the dirt: levee work and leveling.

We live and work here, so Iberia Parish and the towns around it are short runs. Estimates happen fast and the machines show up when the schedule says they will.
Teardown, stumps, dirt, culvert, driveway: the same outfit can carry a property from overgrown or condemned to pad-ready. One schedule and one number instead of four subcontractors.
We price after looking at the property, the access and the ground. You get a real number before work starts, and the site is left clean when it ends.
