House Demolition Cost

There are many variable that affect home demolition cost, making it difficult to calculate average demolition costs.

Local demolition experts can give you a more specific home or building demolition cost estimate.

Some of the factors that can significantly affect demolition prices and the cost of house demolition include:

Are there environmental issues?
Any asbestos located in the structure? EPA requires proper asbestos abatement before demolition can occur. This may add $2 - $3 per square foot in demolition costs.
What are you intending to do with the debris? Landfill and hauling fees are a significant cost that must be added to the overall demolition price. Hauling and landfill fees vary widely by location.
Is there anything salvageable that might have value and offset the building demolition costs? A local demolition expert can help you understand if any of your house's materials have salvage value.
Can any portion of the foundation remain or will you require everything to be removed? Concrete demolition costs add to the overall price of the job.
What is the home made of? Cinder block, red brick, wood, or a combination? What is the roofing material?
How many stories is the home? Multiple level homes increase demolition cost.
Is site restoration part of the project? Do you need any additional work such as excavating or site clearing?
