How Long Does It Take To Demolish A House?

Allcoast Group Demolition Contractors • July 5, 2022

At Allcoast Group Demolition Contractors, one of the most common questions we're asked is how long a home demolition will take. As every house is different, the amount of time taken for demolition depends on various factors. Read on to learn more about the particular variables that could impact demolition time.

Disconnecting utilities

Before demolition can commence, the water, power, gas, and sewerage supplies need to be disconnected from your home. The time this takes will depend on when the companies are available to come out to the property, so it could be several days until we're ready to progress.

Stripping materials for salvage

This step can take one to three days, depending on the size of the house. Our quotes include salvaging materials to be re-used and to help sustain the environment.

Demolition Process

Demolition doesn't really take as long as you think. Depending on the size and location of the house, it can take anywhere between a day and three days to finish. There are many things that can alter the demolition time, this includes: weather, salvaging and asbestos removal which must be completed prior to the demolition. 

Removing waste management

After a house is demolished, site clean up begins. Our quotes include track rolling to the contour of the land to leave you with a tidy block to build back up. Our salvage materials are taken back to our yard for repurposing and all other materials are disposed of.
