Clauss Construction in Lakeside holds CSLB License #630564 and Cal/OSHA Asbestos Registration #433, operating from Maine Avenue as a demolition and environmental remediation contractor since 1991. Pre-demolition electrical disconnection and hazmat abatement sequencing on commercial teardowns requires coordinated de-energization by Arce Electric on Gardena Road and other trade contractors before Clauss crews begin structural removal. The firm self-performs 95% of its project scopes and has executed over 600 demolition tasks totaling more than 5.75 million square feet of facility removal, including radiological decontamination work at federal sites. Post-demolition site restoration on East County commercial parcels often triggers environmental assessments from Advanced Integrated Pest Management to clear soil and structure concerns before new construction begins. Highest-complexity engagements include selective interior demolition within occupied high-rise structures, ACM and lead-paint abatement under EPA NESHAP and Cal/OSHA Title 8 protocols, and radiological D&D operations at DOE-regulated nuclear facilities.
