DeConstruction Program

The Habitat ReStore DeConstruction Program salvages good and usable building materials from residential homes that are being demolished or remodeled in Wake County. At a competitive fee, our staff and volunteer DeCon Crews will come on site to efficiently remove and haul materials. All donations of materials are tax-deductible and will be sold in the Habitat ReStore where proceeds support Habitat Wake and the building of safe and affordable housing for those in need.

Go Green for Good! Benefits to donating to Habitat Wake via our DeCon program:
