Complex demolition takes more than equipment. It takes people who know how to solve the work before it starts.
Here’s a closer look at our demolition team, the work we’re building, and why experienced estimators have a meaningful role in what comes next.
Who is VOLLERS?
VOLLERS has been building heavy civil construction projects in the Northeast since 1949. Seventy-five years in this business teaches you what matters: doing the work right, standing behind your commitments, and earning trust project by project.
We are a full-service civil contractor. Demolition, sitework, environmental, utilities, paving, engineering. When we show up to a project, we do not hand off the hard parts. We handle them.
250 employees. $40 million in owned equipment. Clients like Turner Construction, Skanska, the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, Netflix, and Princeton University.
And in January 2025, the VOLLERS family transferred 75 years of private ownership to the people helping carry the work forward. Today, VOLLERS is 100% employee-owned. That means every employee has a real stake in how we perform, how we grow, and how we take care of the reputation built before us.
The work.
Our demolition team brings more than 30 years of experience to large, technical projects where planning, sequencing, safety, and communication matter from day one. Here is a look at the kind of work we are trusted to perform.

“We are not trying to be the loudest contractor in the room. We are focused on being the team clients trust when the work is complicated, the planning matters, and the outcome has to hold up.”
Brendyn Durishin
How we think.
Demolition is only one part of what we do. The real work is understanding risk, building the right plan, protecting the client’s interests, and executing with discipline, communication, and accountability from start to finish.
Every project is different. That is exactly why our approach is rooted in experience, preconstruction thinking, and practical field knowledge. We bring value before the first machine hits the ground and long after the last truck leaves the site.
We are not a thousand-person company with layers between you and the people who make decisions. This is a team that takes the work seriously, looks out for each other, and has a real stake in how things go.
Reliable, Problem Solving
Leaders
Why now?
We are growing our demolition division with a clear plan for the work ahead.
The work in front of us is larger, more technical, and more demanding. We have a 1.7 million square foot former Army base, a 550MW coal-fired power plant, a data center conversion, and university and federal projects underway. Each one requires careful planning before a machine gets to the site, and each one points to where this division is headed.
We are pursuing more work in power generation, industrial decommissioning, infrastructure retirement, and other complex scopes where experience matters from the start.
That is why we are building the team ahead of where we are going, not scrambling to catch up after we get there.
Why this role matters
The estimating work here shapes more than a number.
On projects like these, the estimate helps define the plan. It brings risk into focus, protects the client, supports the field team, and gives the work a stronger foundation before it ever begins.
You would work directly with the people leading this division. Not through layers. Directly.
That means your judgment would matter early. Your understanding of scope, sequencing, production, and risk would help shape how we pursue the work and how we set it up to be performed. For the right estimator, this is a place to have a real hand in what we are building.
