Interior Demolition
Nothing moves a renovation forward like a clean tear-out — and nowhere is a sloppy one more expensive than the first week of your timeline.
Most renovations stall in the first week
Every project starts with demolition, and most schedule blowups start there too. A sloppy tear-out leaves buried nails, hidden framing damage, and a debris pile your contractor bills you to move before real work begins.
Where tear-outs go wrong
However eager the crew, a rushed demo costs more than it saves. On a typical DIY or cut-rate tear-out we get called to rescue, we find:
- Debris left in piles for the GC to handle
- Nails and screws left in every stud
- Live wires and pipes cut blind
- Load-bearing walls opened without a plan
- Dust through the whole house
Tommy walks the space first, caps utilities, seals off adjoining rooms — then tears out fast, room by room.
A build-ready room
The job isn't done at “the wall is gone.” It's done when your contractor can start framing without touching a broom.
- Clean, exposed studs — build-ready
- Ballpark pace of 3 minutes per square foot
- Debris bagged, hauled, and gone the same week
- Rooms sealed off — dust stays in the work zone
- Every nail pulled, every surface swept
Flipping a property?
Demo is the first domino in your timeline — every day it drags, your carrying costs run. A scheduled tear-out with a known finish date lets you book your contractor with confidence. Ask about multi-room and whole-floor pricing.
