Greenhouse removal across the Golden Isles.
Glass, polycarbonate, or film-over-frame. Glazing comes out carefully, the frame comes down, the slab gets swept.
Part of our Light Demolition service
Backyard greenhouses come in three flavors, and each one comes down a little differently. Glass houses, polycarbonate-panel houses, and film-over-frame hoop houses all start as a frame — usually aluminum or wood — wearing some kind of skin. The skin is the part that takes patience; the frame is the part that takes a wrench and a pry bar.
The careful work is the glazing. On a glass greenhouse, every pane is a hazard until it’s out, so the glass comes out before anything gets unbolted — pulled, stacked, and contained so nobody’s walking on shards later. Polycarbonate panels are lighter and forgiving, but they’re held in by clips and channel that have usually weathered for years, so they fight you a little on the way out. Once the skin is off and contained, the aluminum or wood frame gets unbolted at the joints and broken down into pieces that load flat.
Hoop houses are the simplest of the bunch — mostly pipe and film. The film gets cut down and rolled, the pipe ribs get pulled out of their ground sleeves or unclamped from the base rail, and the whole thing stacks into a fraction of the space it occupied standing up. Different greenhouse, same order of operations: skin first, frame second.

- Aluminum greenhouse frames
- Wood greenhouse frames and bench framing
- Interior benches, shelving, and pots left behind
- Surrounding glass and frame debris from the takedown
How we work
How we actually handle it.
The glazing sets the pace. On a glass house we work pane by pane, easing each one out of its channel or glazing bar before it can crack and stacking it where nobody steps. Cracked or already-broken panes get contained first — broken glass is the one part of this job we slow down for every time, because a swept-clean slab is what tells you it was done right. Polycarbonate panels come out faster: pop the retaining clips, slide the panel out of the channel, set it aside. Film on a hoop house simply gets cut loose at the clamps and rolled.
With the skin off, the frame is straightforward demolition. Aluminum frames unbolt at the corner brackets and ridge bar and come down in clean sections. Wood frames either unscrew at the joints or get cut into haulable lengths if the fasteners are rusted past turning. Either way the goal is flat, stackable pieces that load efficiently rather than one awkward cage we have to wrestle onto the truck whole.
What we hand back is a clear footprint. Frame gone, panels gone, the slab or ground swept of fasteners and glass chips. If there’s a concrete pad or anchor footings underneath, that’s a separate conversation we’ll have on site - see below.
Pricing
How pricing works.
Greenhouse pricing scales with size, glazing type, and how the structure was anchored. A small polycarbonate kit greenhouse sitting on the dirt is the lightest version of this job. A larger glass house with a lot of intact panes to handle carefully, or a wood-framed structure bolted down to footings, is heavier work that takes more time and more care.
Send us photos or let us look at it, and we’ll give you a real number for what’s actually there. We don’t quote a flat “greenhouse” rate, because a hoop house and a glass house aren’t the same job even when they cover the same square footage.

The honest exceptions
What we won’t take — for this item.
A short, honest list of edge cases we either won’t take or want to discuss before we show up. When in doubt, call us — we’ll walk through it before scheduling.
- Large, permitted, or engineered glass structures - we remove small, free-standing, non-structural greenhouses only; anything permit-required or engineered needs a licensed contractor
- Any greenhouse attached to or tied into the home, or work that requires a permit - that is out of scope and needs a licensed contractor
- Disconnecting wired-in heaters, misters, vents, or any electrical, plumbing, or gas service - those must be disconnected by the customer or a licensed trade before we take the structure down; we only haul broken glass that can be safely contained
