While expanding your village in LEGO Fortnite, you will often build new facilities, but sometimes, their location may be awkward or hinder your movement. In such cases, you'll probably want to move the building, and since the game doesn't provide this option, you'll need to delete it first and then build it elsewhere.
This guide explains how to destroy buildings in LEGO Fortnite. The process will not take much time, and better yet, you will get back all the resources you spent on the building when you destroy it.

How to Destroy Buildings in LEGO Fortnite
In general, there are 2 main ways to delete a building in LEGO Fortnite. The first is the more practical method, but the second is arguably more fun.
Break Down a Building
The first and more practical solution is to destroy the building with a pickaxe or one's bare hands. Any building made of wood and granite can be destroyed with bare hands, so we recommend you use this method to avoid wasting the pickaxe. To do this, simply walk up to the building you want to destroy and start hitting it. You will need a certain number of punches to destroy buildings, either with your hands or with a pickaxe.
Once the building is destroyed, you can collect the resources you spent on building it. This way, you won't lose anything and will quickly free up the space you need. You can destroy almost any object, regardless of whether it's a campfire, storage item, or a house. Then, you can take your resources and rebuild the object elsewhere if you wish.
There are also exceptions to this. For example, if you built an Ancient Bed of an Epic rarity, then your bare hands will not help. In this case, an Epic Forest Axe or an Epic Pickaxe will handle it. It's worth noting that an Epic Sword, despite its rarity, will not be able to break this item. Because of this, you will need to consider the rarity of the materials an object is made of before trying to break it.

Blow Up the Building
The alternative would be to blow up the building. This requires resources, but it is much more fun and spectacular to watch. To blow a building up, you can use two items: Dynamite can be used to create a small explosion, and a Boom Barrel can result in a large one. Here are the recipes for both of these items:
| Items | Resources |
|---|---|
| Dynamite | Blast Powder x1 Knotroot Rods x3 |
| Boom Barrel | Planks x6 Blast Powder x3 |
When the explosives are ready, simply place them near the building and interact to detonate them. You can then stand back and enjoy the powerful explosion.
