The work Bella did was great. Ben was helpful with ideas on my garage site project and flexible on timing the work. Bella shows demolition does not have to be a dirty business. They left the site clean and tidy. John, the polite backhoe operator, was surgical in his work, so it was minimally disruptive. Professional and efficient all the way..
Ben is communicative, knowledgeable and really helpful. Quick response time and quality work. We will be using Bella for many projects more projects to come!
Quick, clean and responsive
Exceptional work done!! Thank you!
Ben and his men replaced my hot boiler, fixed several leaks, lifted heavy objects, performed difficult home maintenance and even cleared the snow from my driveway and walkway. They were professional and considerate hard workers. Ben makes himself available 24 hours/day and is always true to his word. He kept me informed re work details and costs. I highly recommend Bella’s Contracting for almost any job you want done. Their prices are more than fair . I will never hire anyone to help me besides Bella’s Contracting.
I met Ben at the house and walked down the demolition job to bring down a 3000 sq ft residential home. He promptly gave me a quote with a good price and after receiving the demo permit, he went to work with his guys to bring down the house and remove the debris. Barry, his heavy equipment operator is super friendly and nice. They even started the job New Year’s eve as requested so I can get my house off the tax roll. He kept me informed on what was going on and due to a massive snow storm, the job slowed down but once the snow melted, he finished up and even returned to clean up the job site as requested. Easy to work with and good communication via text and phone. He was also very flexible with the payment. Good to work with and would use again.
They were very professional and correct on the job they were hired to do. Not to mention that the price was very affordable (around $300 cheaper) compared to other companies. I would recommend them to everyone, as i was very happy with them.
Start to finish, my experience with Bella Contracting exceeded my expectations. Ben and every member of his team were professional and polite, responsive and able to meet my timeframe and reasonably priced. The work was completed and cleaned up nicely at the end of the project and carted off all the debris using their own trucks, including a separate trip back the next day for some additional materials that didn’t fit, which saved much time and additional cost to me. I am very happy with the results! I would not hesitate to use Bella Contracting again or recommend them to anyone in the future!
Fast efficient and quick to the scene on weekend to assess property destruction, secure the area and got a crew onsite immediately to prevent further destruction to my home. Did what he said he would do. Way to go Ben! Thank you. Ben was very responsive to my needs when our garage was crushed and threatened our house. He and his team were on site very quickly. He answered all my calls and described what he would do to mitigate further damage to my property. He really works through a job! thanks, Ben.
We highly recommend working with Ben, John, and their team! They did such a great job helping us demo our place. Even though it was during a very busy spring season, they were always responsive, professional and courteous. The demo team came on time and worked hard. Ben, the owner, checked in multiple times throughout the process to make sure the work was done to our specifications and with his expertise. Also, they stick with the price they originally estimated and don’t gouge the prices. We would definitely work with them again.
Ben (the owner) is a genuinely nice guy who cares a lot about his customers. He’ll help you get your job the way you want it and is adjusting and very cooperative. His crew is neat – detailed and care about not causing collateral damage. They did a kitchen demo for me – where on the job site on time and went above and beyond. Don’t second guess using them!
I can’t say enough good things about this contractor…they were prompt, courteous, efficient, and the price was very reasonable. I would highly recommend and absolutely use them again.

In high-reach demolition, a high-reach demolition boom is attached to an excavator to give it the strength and reach necessary to get to the highest floors of tall buildings. The demolition boom is then equipped with a variety of attachments. These attachments may include demolition shears, hydraulic hammers, pulverizers, and an adjustable attachment known as a multi-processor.
The goal of high-reach demolition is to provide a safe and effective method of demolishing tall structures without using explosives. High-reach demolition can limit noise and pollution, reduce the risk to contractors, and offer an effective middle ground between deconstruction and explosive demolition.
High-reach excavators provide several advantages over traditional demolition techniques for tall buildings, like wrecking ball demolition. Demolition can be performed with greater precision and a variety of attachments can be used on the excavator boom for different types of demolition work on the same building. Additionally, the high-reach demolition boom can be replaced with a shorter boom once the upper floors have been demolished.
Bella Demolition and Contracting Services has over two decades of experience in high-reach demolition. Our team will determine whether or not high-reach demolition is the right solution for your next demolition project. Generally, we’ll use a combination of high-reach excavators, other heavy machinery demolition, and other demolition techniques like deconstruction or explosive demolition when tackling the demolition of a tall building.
High-reach demolition is the perfect tool for demolition jobs involving tall buildings—especially those requiring a greater emphasis on limiting pollution and noise. In densely populated or highly urbanized areas, high-reach demolition can help reduce safety risks and limit debris.
The entire concept of high-reach demolition revolves around tearing down upper floors while limiting the risks to people and property. Once the upper floors are removed, it can be easier to perform secondary demolition jobs safely and continue primary demolition using more traditional heavy equipment.
High-reach demolition is a multi-stage process. Here are some of the steps that we take when approaching this type of demolition:
Site analysis: The first step is determining whether or not high-rise demolition is appropriate. Our team of engineers, architects, and demolition experts will analyze the building for fatigue points and ensure that it’s structurally sound enough to withstand high-rise demolition. We will also analyze the site and surrounding environment, taking into account pollution and noise by-laws. We will determine whether or not high-reach demolition, explosive demolition, deconstruction, or other forms of demolition are right for the job.
Planning the demolition: High-reach demolition is a multi-phased affair. Demolition experts will often need to switch between excavator attachments; they may need to swap from a hydraulic shear to a hydraulic breaker or another purpose-built attachment, adjust the size of the demolition boom, and more. Once the high-reach stage of demolition is completed, the high-reach demolition boom may be replaced with a smaller modular main boom. This only accounts for the high-reach phase of the demolition—several other pieces of heavy machinery, attachments, and tools may be used for the rest of the demolition process. With so many moving parts, planning is essential.
Setting up the site: The site will be carefully set up with barriers to mitigate pollution and noise, all while reducing the spread of debris.
Demolition: Once the site is set up, the demolition process will begin. The process will vary significantly depending on the job in question.
Clean-up: Once the work is complete, we handle debris removal, recycling, and other site clean-up.
