Demolition Excavators

Moving, sorting, loading, and processing demolition debris demands machinery that is exceptionally sturdy. There are many excavators and interchangeable attachments available today that are specifically designed for use in the demolition and dismantling industry.


Demolition excavators are built to withstand the stresses and strains placed on the machinery during deconstruction of various structures. High-reach excavators feature longer booms that can reach upper parts of tall structures, as high as 160 feet or more. Booms are usually interchangeable and allow the machinery to be converted to a standard demolition excavator. Many feature hydraulically-tilting cabins which gives the operator greater visibility and helps reduce fatigue. Modern demolition and dismantling excavators are extremely high tech.

Multiple attachments, capable of pulverizing, cracking, crushing, pinching, scooping, lifting, and cutting concrete, rebar, and other materials, are used to demolish and dismantle concrete buildings, structures, roads, bridge abutments, etc., and to process debris for recycling or disposal. Attachments can operate hydraulically or mechanically. “Teeth” and other components can usually be replaced when they become worn. Demolition excavators can be fitted with dust suppression systems that spray high-pressure water mist to trap dust before it can escape into the environment. Interchangeability of booms and attachments allow contractors like R. Baker & Son to customize excavators to meet the varying demands of different demolition and dismantling projects.
