Overview

Demolition in Far Hills — for homeowners in Somerset County, built by a team that lives here.

Far Hills is one of New Jersey's smallest and most exclusive boroughs, nestled in the Somerset Hills with a population under 1,000. The community is defined by large estates, horse farms, and the headquarters of the United States Golf Association. Properties here are predominantly custom-built on expansive lots — Georgian manors, converted carriage houses, and contemporary estates with acreage measured in double digits.

Far Hills projects are estate-scale work: carriage house conversions, pool house construction, commercial-grade kitchen installations, and whole-home renovations of properties that can exceed 10,000 square feet. The expectations for material quality and craftsmanship are among the highest in the state. Contractors working here must be comfortable managing complex projects with architects, interior designers, and landscape architects.

Questions answered

Demolition in Far Hills — frequently asked.

Interior demolition in Far Hills typically costs $2,000 to $8,000 depending on the scope. A single room gut-out runs $1,500 to $3,000. A full kitchen or bathroom demolition with disposal is $2,500 to $5,000. Homes built before 1978 in Far Hills may require lead paint testing or asbestos assessment, which adds $500 to $1,500.

We are EPA Lead-Safe certified for work in pre-1978 homes, which covers many Far Hills properties. We follow proper containment and disposal procedures as required by NJ law. For asbestos found in floor tiles, pipe insulation, or other materials, we coordinate with licensed abatement contractors to handle removal safely before renovation work begins.

Most interior demolition for Far Hills renovation projects takes 1 to 3 days. A single room gut-out is typically a 1-day job. A full home interior demolition can take 3 to 5 days including debris removal and dumpster coordination. We protect the areas of your home that are not being demolished and haul away all debris.

Yes — we handle load-bearing wall removal as part of open-concept conversions in Far Hills. This requires proper temporary shoring, installation of engineered headers or beams, and structural calculations. All load-bearing wall removals require Somerset County building permits and structural inspections, which we handle as part of the project.
