Environmental Demolition Group (EDG) is a specialized contractor trusted by facility managers, healthcare administrators, developers, and procurement teams to safely and responsibly manage complex projects.
We focus exclusively on selective demolition, commercial interior demolition, asbestos abatement, and hazardous material removal: work that requires planning, precision, and deep technical expertise.
From older commercial buildings to active facilities, EDG partners with clients who need more than a general demolition contractor.
EDG was founded in 2004 by Shawn McGinness with a clear goal: to build a specialty contracting firm capable of handling the most challenging environmental cleanup and selective demolition projects.
From the beginning, our company has been guided by a safety-first mindset and a commitment to doing work the right way, especially in environments where compliance, occupant safety, and operational continuity matter.
EDG isn’t a general demolition contractor. We perform selective demolition exclusively for commercial and institutional buildings.
Our core services include:
This specialized approach allows us to plan carefully, reduce risk, and maintain control throughout every phase of a project.
Our team is well-versed in working in active environments that demand close coordination and a strong focus on safety.
Safety isn’t a checklist at EDG. It’s a core operating standard. Our technical staff maintains current training and certifications, including:
EDG is headquartered in Erlanger, Kentucky (Boone County), just across the Ohio River from Cincinnati. Our regional presence allows us to respond quickly, coordinate efficiently, and support projects that require local knowledge alongside multi-state compliance.
We’re licensed to serve clients throughout:
Choosing the right environmental demolition partner comes down to experience, accountability, and risk management. Our expert team is highly trained to meet those expectations on complex commercial projects. We understand the responsibility that comes with selective demolition, abatement, and remediation, and we approach every project accordingly.
