Asbestos survey

Homes built before 1980 get a survey coordinated for you β€” and licensed abatement handled if it turns up.

FAQ

Straight answers.

How much does it cost to demolish a house in Charlotte?
Most wood-frame teardowns run roughly $11K–$42K all-in depending on size, construction and access β€” permits, disconnects, teardown, haul-off and rough grading included. Mobile homes run $4K–$9K. Every job gets a flat written quote after a site walk β€” never an hourly meter.
Do I need a permit to tear down a house?
Yes β€” a demolition permit and utility disconnects are required. We pull the permit, file the state notification, and coordinate the disconnects for you. It's all included.
What about asbestos?
Homes built before 1980 typically need an asbestos survey before demolition. We coordinate the survey and any required abatement so the job is done safely and to code.
What happens to the foundation and slab?
Your call β€” leave it, cap it, or fully break out and remove it. We price each option so you can decide what fits your next build.
How long does a house demolition take?
Most homes are down and hauled off in 2–7 days depending on size, construction and access. Mobile homes are usually 1–2 days.
Are you licensed, insured and bonded?
Yes β€” licensed and insured in NC and SC, with a certificate of insurance available on request before we ever roll onto your property.
Can you demolish a house that still has stuff in it?
Yes. As the heavy-work division of a junk-removal company, we can clear the contents and take the structure in one trip β€” no separate cleanout crew needed.
Do you handle fire-damaged or condemned structures?
Yes β€” unsafe, fire- or storm-damaged and condemned structures are routine for us, handled safely and to code.
How soon can you start?
We schedule a site walk within 48 hours and get you a written quote within 24 hours after. Most jobs start within a week or two of approval.
