Demolition
Controlled Demolition, Clean Results
Overview

We strip spaces down to the studs safely and efficiently, handling proper disposal and hazardous material abatement when older NJ homes require it.
Scope of work
Every demolition project covers the full scope — start to finish.
One contractor pulls every trade under one roof — design, demolition, rough-in, finish, cleanup. You deal with the owners. No coordinating subs, no finger-pointing, no surprise line items.

Questions answered
Demolition — frequently asked.
Interior demolition in Central NJ costs $2,000-$8,000 depending on scope. A single room gut-out runs $1,500-$3,000. Full kitchen or bathroom demolition with disposal is $2,500-$5,000. Pre-1978 homes may need lead or asbestos testing, adding $500-$1,500.
