About Our Service

NYC’s All-in-One Demolition Contractor

Demolition in NYC is not one thing - it's a dozen different services: interior gut renovations, kitchen and bath demo, wall removal, concrete removal, pool demo, whole-house teardowns. Most homeowners need different services for different parts of their project.

We handle all of it under one contractor, one COI, one permit package (when applicable), and one invoice. That means no coordinating multiple contractors and no finger-pointing between trades when something goes wrong.

Licensed, insured, DOB-approved, OSHA-compliant. We've handled over 2,000 demolition projects across NYC and Long Island since 2019. Everything from one-wall removals to full-block redevelopments.

Demolition vs. DIY vs. General Contractor

Not sure which option is right? Here's how they stack up.

Bottom line: If you want it gone fast with zero effort, junk removal is the move. If you have a week-long renovation, a dumpster rental makes more sense. We offer both - call and we'll recommend the right option.

You don't need to do much - that's the point. But these tips can save time and may lower your cost.

πŸ“

Gather items in one area

The faster we can access everything, the faster the job goes.

🏷️

Separate what you're keeping

Point it out to the crew before we start - nothing leaves by accident.

πŸšͺ

Clear a path to the exit

Move rugs or furniture that might be in the way of the nearest door or elevator.

Check for hazardous items

Set aside paint, chemicals, propane. We can't take those but can point you to options.

FAQ

Common Questions About Demolition Contractor in NYC

Quick answers to what NYC clients ask most.

Q What's your specialty?

Residential and small–medium commercial demolition in NYC. Interior gut renovations, wall removal, kitchen/bath demo, and full-house teardowns are our biggest project categories.

Q Do you pull permits?

Yes. DOB demolition permits, Alt-2 for structural changes, foundation permits, and C&D disposal documentation. We work with licensed expediters.

Q How do I get a quote?

Send a photo or description for rough pricing. For anything over $2,500 projected, on-site walk-through is standard - free, no obligation.

Q How quickly can you start?

Simple demos (non-permit): 1–3 days. Permitted demolition: 2–4 weeks for permit approval, then 1–1.5 days of work per phase.

Q Are you licensed and insured?

Yes. NYC DOB registered. $2M general liability. $1M workers' comp. OSHA-10 and OSHA-30 certified crews. COI within the hour.

Q Do you handle haul-off?

Yes. Same-day haul to licensed NYC C&D facilities. Weight tickets and disposal documentation provided. LEED-compliant reporting available.

Q What about neighboring property protection?

Critical for NYC shared-wall work. Vibration monitoring, dust control, and neighboring-property inspections when required. Standard OSHA safety plans included.

Q Can you work with my architect and GC?

Yes - most common arrangement. Demo coordinated with the whole project team.

Q Do you handle hazmat?

Coordination: yes. Direct work: we refer to licensed asbestos and lead abatement partners. Seamless handoff between demo and abatement.

Q What's the one thing I should know before hiring?

Demo quotes vary wildly - sometimes 50–100%. Always compare scope: permits, haul, abatement, protection. Lowest quote is often the most expensive outcome.

Tips

First Time Hiring a Demo Contractor?

Quick tips from our crew.

Get 3 quotes minimum

Demo pricing varies 50–100% between contractors. Compare apples to apples - same scope, same inclusions.

Check the license and insurance

NYC DOB registration is mandatory. COI with $1M+ liability is table stakes. Anything less is a liability transfer to you.

Photo everything before demo

Future-proof your records. Insurance, permits, and disputes all need pre-demo photos.

Budget the hidden costs

Permits, abatement, utility disconnect, and final grading often add 20–30% beyond the "demo" quote.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    How much does demolition cost in NYC?
    Interior demolition in NYC typically runs $4-$8 per sq ft for non-permitted work, $7-$12/sq ft for permitted. Kitchen gut-out: $1,800-$4,500. Full-bath strip: $1,200-$3,200. Wall removal with PE + Alt-2: $3,500-$8,000. We quote fixed-price after a free on-site walkthrough.
    How much should it cost to demo a kitchen?
    Standard kitchen gut-out (cabinets, counters, tile floor, appliances out): $1,800-$3,000 in NYC. Add $500-$1,200 for tile backsplash + ceiling demo. Wall removal (load-bearing) adds $2,500-$5,000 with PE-stamped drawings + Alt-2 filing. All quoted fixed-price, no hourly billing.
    What is the average cost to demolish a house?
    Full residential demolition in NYC runs $18,000-$45,000 depending on size, permit complexity, and asbestos/lead testing requirements. Most of our work is interior gut-outs and partial demos - full-house teardowns require a separate estimating process and city permits.
    Is it cheaper to demo or remodel?
    Depends on scope. For kitchens or bathrooms, the demo portion is typically 8-15% of the total renovation cost. Skipping demo (covering over old materials) saves money short-term but causes problems with rough-in, plumbing, and resale. Most general contractors require a clean tear-out before they'll start.
    What are the three types of demolition?
    (1) Interior demolition - walls, cabinets, fixtures, flooring stripped while building remains. (2) Selective demolition - specific elements removed (a load-bearing wall, a chimney, a deck). (3) Full demolition - entire structure razed. We handle 1 and 2 daily; 3 is permit/heavy-equipment work we coordinate with structural partners.
    Do I need a permit for interior demolition in NYC?
    Permitted (Alt-2 filing) work is required when you remove a load-bearing wall, change room layouts that affect plumbing/gas, or do anything visible from outside. Cosmetic gut-outs (cabinets, tile, fixtures) are usually non-permitted. We file Alt-2 in-house for permitted projects.
