The Homewrecker is a community-made melee weapon for the Pyro. It appears as a large, two-handed sledgehammer.
When wielded, this weapon deals double damage to enemy Engineer's buildings. The Homewrecker is also able to destroy an Electro Sapper attached to a friendly building with a single swing. Unlike the Engineer's melee weapons, the Homewrecker cannot repair damaged buildings. Additionally, the Homewrecker will deal 25% less damage to enemies.
As buildings are now more reinforced against damage from the Flamethrower, the Homewrecker is a more suitable weapon for destroying Dispensers and Teleporters quickly. Its damage is capable of destroying a Mini-Sentry in one hit, and any other unattended building in two. A normal Sentry Gun proves to be the most difficult building to destroy due to knockback and continual fire, particularly when protected with the Wrangler. A Pyro aided by a Medic is able to take down most Sentry Guns, especially with an ÜberCharge.

Trivia
- While the Homewrecker was submitted with the name "Sledgehammer", the Homewrecker's original skin name was Mr Sledge, and was available as one of the skins for the Axtinguisher.
- The Homewrecker was accidentally added to the drop system a day earlier as "Unknown Item 153". At that time, the item could be acquired through the random drop system, but not found in the backpack without the help of an external item manager. Approximately 1200 players found the item, but it did not drop into the backpack until the item was officially implemented on March 18. When moved into the backpack before this, the item took the placeholder icon of the Bottle.
- Template:Dictionary/steam ids/69195570, creator of this weapon, also created one of the winning item sets for the Polycount Pack, the Tank Buster. He is also responsible for all of the items featured in the Shogun Pack.
