Deconstruction Materials
Habitat's Deconstruction staff and volunteers remove salvageable building materials from remodeling projects and from homes slated for demolition. If you or someone you know is renovating a kitchen or bath or demolishing a home in Wake County and would like for our Decon Crew to strip out the good and usable materials for a tax deduction, please send an email to decon@habitatwake.org. All proceeds of the Deconstruction program support the building of new Habitat homes and you can save on tipping fees at the landfill!
