Handle any asbestos first.
One and two family homes are typically exempt from the Rhode Island Asbestos Control regulations. However, damaged or disturbed asbestos should be properly abated prior to demolition.
The only way to determine whether or not there is hazardous material on your property is by having it properly inspected by a licensed asbestos professional.

Find a contractor that’s right for the job.
Not only should your demolition provider be registered with the Contractor’s Registration and Licensing Board, but they should have a good track record with customers, too.
In Rhode Island, contractors must hold a valid contractor's registration in order to perform most work on homes and other structures.

Salvage as much material as possible.
A great way to save on demolition costs is by dismantling a structure as much as possible prior to bringing in heavy equipment. By removing any flooring, baseboards, appliances, plumbing, etc. that may be reused, resold, or recycled, you’re removing debris that would otherwise need to be disposed of, and you’re helping the environment and your community, too!
