Frequently Asked Questions

Price comes from the structure itself. Size and what it is built of set most of it. A slab and foundation underneath add work, and so does the amount of debris leaving the site. We price each job after we look at it.

Estimates are free. We come to the property, look at what is coming down and give you a price for the work. The visit costs you nothing, and the job starts when you say go.

We are based in Valrico and work about 50 miles out. That covers most of Hillsborough County, including Tampa, Brandon, Riverview and Plant City. Lakeland in Polk County and Wesley Chapel and Zephyrhills in Pasco County are in range too. Every town is listed on our service areas page.

Hillsborough County requires a demolition permit, and it wants utility sign-offs before it issues one. We handle the permit paperwork where the county lets the contractor file it. Florida also requires notice before a demolition, and a licensed asbestos inspector surveys the buildings that rule covers. Rules change, so confirm what applies with the permit office covering your address.

It leaves the property. We load it with the excavator and by hand, and it goes out in dump trucks and trailers. Concrete, block, lumber, metal and drywall go to county landfills or to construction and demolition recycling sites. We also haul debris off other job sites.

Yes, taking down part of a structure is regular work for us. An addition, a damaged wing, an attached garage or a flooded ground floor can come out. The rest of the structure stays standing. Interior gut-outs to the studs work the same way.

The machine work on a normal house is usually measured in days. Permits and utility disconnects take longer than the teardown, and they come first. Size, the slab underneath and how far the debris travels all change the timeline. We give you a time frame with the estimate.

Have the power, water and gas shut off and disconnected at the structure. Take out anything you want to keep, because what is left inside goes with the building. Tell us what stays on the property, like a fence, a pool or a tree. If we are digging, buried lines get located first through Sunshine 811, Florida's free call-before-you-dig service.
