Billy Nabors Demolition faces legal action over demolition of wrong house.
A Seagoville demolition company faces a lawsuit after it tore down the wrong Rowlett home following a deadly tornado outbreak in late December.
Billy Nabors Demolition — whose slogan is “We could wreck the world” — tore down a duplex at 7601 and 7603 Calypso Drive on March 22. The company was supposed to bring down a house a block away at 7601 Cousteau Drive.
The company’s chief executive, George Gomez, said at the time that Google Maps mistakenly led crews to the wrong home when the correct address was entered, adding that the incident was “not a big deal.”
In a Facebook post a few days later, the company apologized for the demolition and said it was working to make things right with the duplex’s owners. The post also criticized some media coverage of the incident, saying aspects of it had been misreported.
