Demolition in Palm Beach County

Demolition of every type, priced at any size

The scope changes from a bathroom strip-out to a mid-rise teardown, but the questions do not: what stays, what is live, what the survey finds and which office signs off. Choose the closest type, or call and describe the job.

Order of work

Every job, the same sequence

  1. Call or send the form

    Give the address, what is coming down and anything that must be protected. Photos or a survey help.

  2. Walk the property

    We check the structure, live services, truck access, trees, the seawall or neighbor close by, and any association rules.

  3. Scope and price in writing

    Removal, protection, haul-off and anything that depends on the asbestos survey are listed line by line.

  4. Notices, letters and permit

    The licensed asbestos survey and any health department notice, the utility releases, then the application to the right building office.

  5. Take it down and haul it out

    Work runs in the agreed order. Loads go to Solid Waste Authority–permitted facilities, or the hauler your city requires.

  6. Final inspection and close-out

    The inspector signs off and the permit closes. You keep a graded lot or the shell you asked for.

Questions

Questions owners ask first

Do you quote demolition of any size?

Yes. Size never rules a job out: we price everything from a single shed or an interior strip-out to a commercial site or a concrete tower. Every job is priced from the same questions: which department issues the permit, what the asbestos rules require, which utility releases are needed, and in what sequence the structure comes down. Send what you have, and we will say what else we need.

Who issues the demolition permit for my property?

It depends on where the property sits. Palm Beach County has 39 municipalities, and the county’s Planning, Zoning and Building Department covers the unincorporated areas. Each office keeps its own checklist. West Palm Beach sends every demolition application to Historic Preservation, while the Town of Palm Beach asks for a bond and mailed notice to owners within 300 feet. We confirm the office and its list before quoting.

Do I need an asbestos survey before demolition?

For commercial buildings, condos and co-ops, yes. The Florida Department of Health in Palm Beach County requires a survey and written notice at least 10 working days before a regulated demolition, even when no asbestos turns up. An isolated house of four or fewer units is usually excluded, though several cities still ask for an asbestos form with the permit. We arrange a licensed survey and coordinate licensed abatement.
