Marathahalli grew up around one of the busiest junctions on the Outer Ring Road, and it shows. Within a few minutes of the Marathahalli bridge are dozens of tech parks, and the streets behind the main road – Munnekolala, Kundalahalli, Ashwath Nagar and the old village lanes – are packed with PGs, rental buildings and small shops built to house the people who work there.
Many of these buildings went up quickly in the 2000s and early 2010s. Owners are now pulling them down to build better-planned rental buildings with more floors, lifts and parking. National Building Demolishers provides building demolition in Marathahalli for exactly these projects, along with shops and commercial buildings on the main roads.
What We Demolish in Marathahalli
- PG and hostel buildings – G+2 to G+5 with many small rooms and bathrooms
- Rental buildings and small apartment blocks
- Shops and commercial buildings on the Outer Ring Road and Old Airport Road
- Old village houses in the original Marathahalli and Munnekolala lanes
- Interior strip-outs of offices and restaurants changing tenants
PG Buildings Come Down in Stages
A PG building is mostly small rooms – lots of partition walls, bathrooms, water lines and a tank on every terrace. We don’t start breaking the structure until the inside is stripped. Bathrooms, water heaters, wiring and fittings come out first, and anything with value is separated. Then we start on the terrace with tanks and parapets, and work down one floor at a time.
Because most PGs sit on narrow lanes with similar buildings on either side, the floors are broken by hand or with small machines, and debris falls inside the building’s own footprint. Only once the building is down to two or three floors do larger machines come in to finish.
Working Around the Outer Ring Road
Plots on or near the Outer Ring Road have a different problem – traffic. A tipper truck stopping on the service road at peak hour can cause a jam within minutes. We collect debris inside the plot during the day and load trucks early morning or late evening, and we keep the footpath in front of the site open and safe for people walking to work.
A Short Checklist Before You Demolish in Marathahalli
Owners often ask us what they should sort out before our team arrives. Here is what we usually suggest:
- Approvals: check with the city corporation which permission is needed for your plot, and keep the papers ready. We can explain what is usually asked for.
- Utilities: apply for permanent disconnection of BESCOM power and the BWSSB water connection, and keep the receipts.
- Neighbours: let them know a few days ahead. A short conversation saves a lot of complaints later. We are happy to speak to them too.
- Things to keep: tell us before work starts if you want to keep doors, windows, granite, grills or the gate, so they are removed carefully.
- Your builder’s plan: if the new design needs the old foundation removed or a basement dug, tell us early so we can include it.
How a Demolition Job Runs With Us in Marathahalli
Every site is different, but the steps below are the same on almost every job. We explain each one to you before we start, so there are no surprises halfway through.
- Site visit (free). Our supervisor comes to your Marathahalli plot, looks at how the building is built, checks the walls you share with neighbours, the width of the road, overhead cables and where trucks can stand. We also note anything you want to keep, such as a gate, granite or doors.
- Written quotation. You get the scope of work, how many days it will take, how the debris will be removed and what we will pay you for the scrap, all in writing.
- Getting ready. You shift your belongings out and apply for disconnection of electricity and water. We put up sheet barricading around the plot and, where needed, support for neighbouring walls.
- Demolition from the top down. Water tanks and parapets go first, then each floor in turn. Near shared walls we work by hand; in open areas we use breakers and excavators.
- Dust and noise control. We spray water while breaking, keep heavy work within reasonable hours, and keep the road in front of your plot clear.
- Debris removal. Steel and metal are separated, and the rest is loaded into tipper trucks and taken to authorised dumping yards – not dropped by the roadside.
- Handover. We level the plot and hand it over clean, so your builder can start marking the new foundation.
What Affects Demolition Cost in Marathahalli
- Number of floors: many PG and rental buildings here are G+3 to G+5.
- Plot frontage: Outer Ring Road and main-road plots need more barricading and off-peak loading.
- Lane width: inner lanes in Munnekolala and Kundalahalli can limit truck size.
- Internal fittings: PGs have many bathrooms, tanks and partitions to strip out first.
- Scrap value: steel, grills and fittings are deducted from your bill.

Why Owners Choose National Building Demolishers
We have been demolishing buildings across Bangalore for over 15 years from our office in Kalasipalya. We are not the biggest company in the city, but we are careful. The same supervisor stays with your job from the first visit to the handover, the quotation you sign is the amount you pay, and the scrap value is shown openly instead of being quietly kept. Most of our work comes from people who were referred by earlier customers – that is the standard we try to keep.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can you demolish a G+4 PG building on a narrow lane?
Yes. We start on the terrace and take each floor down in turn, with debris falling inside the building, not into the lane.
Do tenants need to vacate first?
Yes. The building must be completely empty, and power and water permanently disconnected, before we start.
Can you work on a plot facing the Outer Ring Road?
Yes. We barricade the full frontage, keep the service road clear and move trucks outside peak hours.
Do you work in Munnekolala, Kundalahalli and around the bridge?
Yes, across all of Marathahalli and the surrounding areas.
How long does a multi-floor building take?
Usually two to three weeks for a G+3 or G+4 building, depending on access.
Do you buy the scrap from PG fittings?
Yes. Steel, grills, water heaters and other recoverable fittings are valued and deducted.
