Tiny’s Demolition & Recycling

What Tiny’s Demolition & Recycling does

Tiny's Demolition & Recycling (legal entity Tiny's Construction, LLC) is a privately held, family-owned specialty contractor headquartered in Nashville, Tennessee. Founded in 1998 by Bill Fay, who serves as President with his daughter Tiffany Fay as CEO, the company provides demolition, deconstruction, recycling, asset recovery, and hazardous material abatement services across residential, commercial, and industrial projects for both private and public-sector clients. Service scope includes complete teardowns, selective and interior strip-outs, industrial facility demolition, and integrated material recovery targeting concrete, steel, metals, wood, brick, and asphalt, with LEED documentation support.

The company's competitive capability rests on its equipment fleet and safety program. It operates Brokk remote-controlled demolition robots — electrically driven, zero-emission machines that fit through standard doorways and operate inside occupied buildings in confined spaces — alongside excavators outfitted with hydraulic breakers, shears, grapples, pulverizers, and buckets for on-site processing and sorting. Operations are supported by OSHA-certified crews, weekly Toolbox Training, daily job-specific safety huddles, and a two-tier safety leadership structure (Safety Director and Safety Manager). The company holds ABC STEP safety program recognition, is a member of the National Demolition Association and ABC Greater Tennessee Chapter, and has won multiple ABC Eagle Awards and an ABC EIC Pyramid Award.

Commercially, Tiny's operates as a licensed general contractor delivering services via direct sales to property owners and developers and as a subcontractor to tier-one general contractors including Barton Malow, JE Dunn Construction, Hoar Construction, Mortenson Construction, and others. Customers have included Vanderbilt University, Tennessee State University, St. Cecilia Academy, Simmons Bank Liberty Stadium (Memphis), The Inn at Opryland, Bluebird Cafe, Global Mall, Henry Horton State Park, and Cumberland River Docks. Geographic reach extends from Nashville across Tennessee and the Southeast United States into at least 10 states. Pricing is quote-based with free estimates, and revenue is generated through competitive project bidding on both private and public work. The company is bootstrapped with no external funding, no parent entity, and no public listing.
