Old barn teardown, structural demolition, debris removal, and full site clearing. We take down barns, outbuildings, and agricultural structures and clean the site completely.
Backwell demolishes old barns, agricultural outbuildings, and farm structures throughout Tully, Onondaga County, and the surrounding area. Old barns represent a significant liability and safety hazard — collapsing roofs, rotted timbers, and failing foundations are a danger to people and livestock. We take them down completely and efficiently, removing all debris and leaving the site clean and ready for its next use.
Our barn demolition process includes structural assessment, selective salvage of usable materials if desired, mechanical demolition, complete debris removal and hauling, and foundation removal or filling as needed. We work on all sizes of agricultural structures from small outbuildings and equipment sheds to large dairy barns and multi-bay structures. Our equipment is right-sized for agricultural properties with limited access.

Tully occupies the Appalachian Plateau in southern Onondaga County, on the headwaters divide between the Atlantic and Great Lakes drainages. Soils across the village and surrounding commercial parcels are dominated by Mardin and Langford channery silt loams on the rolling uplands, with Lordstown channery silt loam on the highest ground and Palmyra gravelly loam on the outwash in the Tully valley itself.
The Tully Valley is one of the most distinctive hydrogeologic settings in Central New York, with Onondaga Creek draining north toward Syracuse, the Tioughnioga headwaters draining south, and the historic Tully Valley mudboil and landslide activity adding karst and slope-stability considerations to any earthwork on the valley walls. Commercial site work in Tully regularly involves shallow sandstone and siltstone bedrock on the plateau parcels, fragipan-restricted drainage on the uplands, and stormwater design that accounts for the Onondaga Creek watershed's contribution to Onondaga Lake. Frost depth is substantial. Projects in the valley floor routinely require coordination with NYSDEC on Onondaga Creek stream-protection permitting, and subsurface investigation is standard before slab or foundation work.
