destroy something = ruin something = wreck something
= to damage something so badly that it can no longer be used or so that it no longer exists
'The building was completely destroyed by fire.'
spoil something: to be careless or make a mistake, with the result that something is no longer good:
'Don't put too much salt in the soup - you'll spoil it.'
