Not every demolition project starts with a plan. Sometimes it starts with a phone call at 7 in the morning because a pipe burst overnight and half your kitchen ceiling is on the floor. Other times, you’ve been staring at that outdated commercial space for months thinking, “something’s gotta give.” Either way, when it’s time to tear something down so you can build something better, you want people who actually know what they’re doing.
That’s us. We’re Executive 1 Demolition & Restoration Riverside, and we’ve been the go to demolition contractor in Riverside for over 30 years now. Family owned, locally operated, and honestly… we just love this city. From jobs near the Mission Inn district to properties out closer to La Sierra, we’ve worked on homes and commercial buildings in pretty much every corner of Riverside you can think of.
Here’s the thing about demolition that most people don’t realize until they’re in the middle of it. It’s not just about swinging a sledgehammer. There’s permits, there’s debris removal, there’s making sure the structure around your project stays safe and intact.
Whether you need a full home demolition, a commercial building torn down to the slab, or a careful interior demolition that preserves the bones of the building, the details matter. And cutting corners? That’s how projects go sideways fast.
We’ve seen folks try the DIY route or hire someone cheap off a listing who shows up with a truck and no insurance. It never ends well. What we bring to every single project is experience you can actually feel. We show up on time, we give you a fair price upfront with no surprises, and we get the work done fast without sacrificing safety. Riverside is our home. Your property matters to us because this community matters to us.
Every demolition job is different but the goal is always the same. Remove what needs to go, protect what stays, and leave your Riverside property ready for whatever comes next.
Let’s start with the one we get called about the most. Home demolition. And it covers a lot more ground than people think. Maybe you’re tearing down a detached garage that’s been leaning since the Northridge quake. Or maybe the whole house needs to come down because you’ve got plans for a new build on the lot. Could be something smaller too, like ripping out a back patio cover or taking down an old retaining wall that’s seen better days.
Whatever the scope, we handle it all. Full structure tear downs, partial demos, foundations, concrete removal… all of it. We work with the city of Riverside on permits so you don’t have to deal with that headache, and we make sure debris gets hauled away properly. No dumping. No mess left behind. Just a clean slate ready for whatever comes next.
Commercial projects are a different animal. The stakes are higher, the timelines are tighter, and there’s usually a contractor or developer waiting on us to finish before they can even start their part. We get that. We’ve torn down old retail spaces along Magnolia Avenue, stripped out warehouses near the 91 corridor, and cleared sites for new construction all across the Riverside area.
What sets us apart on commercial work is communication. You’ll know exactly where things stand every step of the way. No guessing games, no delays we didn’t warn you about.
This one takes a little more finesse. Interior demolition means we’re working inside a structure you plan on keeping. So precision matters. We’re talking selective strip outs, removing drywall, flooring, cabinetry, fixtures… sometimes down to the studs. It’s the kind of work that sets the stage for a clean remodel or restoration.
We see a ton of this in older Riverside neighborhoods like Wood Streets and downtown. Folks want to modernize the inside without losing the character of the home. That’s exactly where we shine.
We didn’t move here from somewhere else to chase contracts. My family has been in Riverside for over three decades. We’ve watched this city grow from the ground up. Literally. We’ve torn down old structures in Arlington to make room for new development. We’ve cleared fire damaged properties near the Mission Inn district so families could rebuild. We’ve gutted commercial spaces along Magnolia Avenue that sat vacant for years until someone finally decided to do something with them. That kind of history in one city teaches you things you can’t learn from a manual. We know the soil conditions, the building styles from different decades, the permit timelines at city hall, and which neighborhoods have older construction that needs extra care during demo work.
Every person on our team lives in the Inland Empire. Most of them are right here in Riverside. When we show up to a job in Canyon Crest or La Sierra or down near the 91 corridor, we’re not strangers driving in from two counties away. We shop at the same stores you do. Our kids go to the same schools. That connection to the community changes how we treat your property. It’s not just another address on a work order. It’s somebody’s home or business in our city.
