Public works demolition is the main line of work at TTL Services, a demolition contractor in Paterson. Most of our income comes from public jobs for towns and counties. We bid municipal demolition for towns, counties, school districts and authorities across New Jersey. Then we take the structures down and haul the debris away.
Towns make their demolition jobs public and ask for bids. We price the work from the town's specification and send in a sealed bid. TTL Services is a New Jersey Department of Labor Public Works contractor. Excavators with demolition grapples take the structure down, and our trucks haul the debris.
Tell us about the building or the site and where it is. We look at the job and put the quote in writing.
Public owners call for demolition when a building is unsafe or stands in the way of a public project. Our public jobs include a multi-level municipal parking garage, with the site restored afterward. We have also taken down a former armory.
For a Hudson County town, we took down a damaged structure on the town's order. Work under an order like that is emergency demolition. Condemned buildings and old municipal garages are part of town work too.
For a Bergen County borough, the job paired abatement and demolition, with the debris recycled and the site restored. For a Monmouth County shore borough, we took down a church building after asbestos abatement and restored the site. On jobs like these, the abatement contractor we work with does the abatement before we take the building down.
Towns and counties buy under the state's Local Public Contracts Law. School districts follow the Public School Contracts Law. Jobs above the bid threshold go out to public bid. The town runs a legal notice in its official newspaper, with the bid date and where to get the specification.
Sealed bids are opened and read aloud in public. The contract goes to the responsible bidder with the lowest bid. The bid forms include a non-collusion affidavit and an ownership disclosure statement. Each addendum gets acknowledged in the bid.
Each town writes its own demolition specification. It can call for the utility disconnects and an asbestos inspection before the demolition permit is issued. It can also call for the foundations out and the site backfilled, topsoiled, fertilized and seeded. We price the bid and run the job to that document.
New Jersey's Prevailing Wage Act names demolition as public work. On a covered job, workers are paid the rates the Department of Labor and Workforce Development publishes. Those rates vary by county and by the type of work.
The public body puts the rate determination into the contract. Payroll records for each worker go to the public body through the state's online NJ Wage Hub. The wage rates are posted at the work site.
Public contracts in New Jersey carry the state's affirmative action rules. After the award and before signing, the contractor files a project workforce report. A monthly report follows for the life of the contract. TTL Services has a Federally Approved Affirmative Action Plan and an Equal Employment Opportunity plan.

The quote spells out what comes down and how the lot is left. We set the date once you say yes.
Each utility confirms its connection is removed or sealed, and then the town can issue the demolition permit. Any asbestos that would crumble is abated before the teardown. A call to New Jersey One Call (811) gets the buried lines marked.
Our excavators bring the structure down, and the debris is sorted and hauled. The lot is left graded, or dug for the new foundation when the builder is ready.

I needed a very thick concrete patio removed. After the first company I called packed up and quit after a few hours, Tailor showed up and got the job done in no time. Tailor really is a stand up guy and very trustworthy. Looking forward to working with them on future projects.
