Costello Dismantling Co., Inc.

Costello Dismantling has been West Wareham's family-run demolition outfit since 1985 — 41 years under founder and president Dan Costello, still family-owned according to the company. Its work runs toward the industrial and institutional side of demolition: precision dismantling, asbestos/PCB/lead-paint remediation, tank removal, and salvage and recycling of dismantled buildings, per its own site and its Better Business Bureau listing. Its Massachusetts home improvement contractor registration is active. The company has drawn attention within the demolition industry over the years. Trade press from the early-to-mid 2010s covered it winning an international demolition award multiple times and being recognized for an environmental-performance method of using braced exterior walls as containment barriers while removing contaminated material. A July 2026 construction-industry article described the company as "ahead of the curve." Public customer feedback is thin — just two Google reviews. One, from 2025, is a brief "nice people." The other, from 2024, is a detailed complaint describing repeated violations of the local noise ordinance and containment fencing that fell into the street multiple times, blocking traffic. This is a firm built for large-scale demolition and remediation work with a long industry track record, but worth asking directly about site-management practices — noise, fencing, traffic control — given the specific complaint above.
