Douglas M. says, "Anthony responded in ‘Lightning fast” order. “How soon do you need me?” “I can be there within an hour.” I arrived home and found him already working on six holes that had to be deepened for the installation of a simple children’s playhouse/swing set. I had assembled it, and was attempting to sink 3 1/2 X 3 1/2 poles into poured concrete, when I found there was a buried, massive, flat piece of granite bedrock that covered the entire area I was working on. I was only able to get down 5”. I needed to get deeper. So the installation was deemed impossible. No surprise swing set for my 3yr old granddaughter. I was incredibly disappointed. Then I found Anthony. He soon knew his jackhammer would not break through this type of rock in its position. But he deepened 2 holes as far as they would go, using his manual, vertical ‘maul.’ - very carefully and effectively. But the rock in other holes were as hard as a huge slab of 20’ X 20’ diamond. So he suggested his diamond-bladed, gas-powered saw to excavate - by cross cuts - slice by slice, down to an acceptable depth. He committed to be back the next day at 3:30 to 4:00. But…the next day I woke to whirring power tool sounds outside my window. It was Anthony. 1st thing in the morning. I was having coffee and reading the paper. And he did it. Beautifully. It took real skill and knowledge of his craft. This required innovation, imagination and optimism. Anthony has a great can-do nature. I can say with confidence that you will find others who may say “we can’t do that.” But Anthony may say “I’m sure I can do that” and he will. He’s a creative thinker, which is essential to find ‘a better way.’ He’s honest and will not BS you. I can only imagine how well he accomplishes all the other types of landscaping projects in his repertoire. This was a special situation. He came to the rescue. Thank you Anthony. Douglas Thomas. The pictures may be out of order. But they tell the story. If you hire this man, you will be 150% satisfied."See more

Q & A

Answers to commonly asked questions from the experts on Thumbtack.

How much does demolition cost?

Demolition services cost $800, on average, with a cost range between $644 and $1,000. Demolishing your kitchen or bathroom may cost around $1,000 or more, depending on its size and the amount of work involved. However, demolishing a house can cost up to $30,000 (or more).

Contacting contractors is the best way to find out how much demolitions services cost in your area. That's because there are several factors that play into the total cost. The first is the size of your house, property or structure. Smaller homes that can be demolished with a single excavator will cost less than larger homes that may require more equipment and personnel, as well as more waste disposal fees. Also, labor rates will vary depending on your region. 

How much does it cost to demolish and clear a house?

On average, it costs between $3,000 and $35,000 to demolish an entire house. Demolition also involves a number of factors that will influence the cost. House demolition pros will factor in the location of the demolition site, as well as whether they’re partially or completely tearing down the structure. They will also charge for outbuildings that need to be demolished, as well as dump fees for disposing of the waste.

How hard is demolition work?

If you’re not a professional, demolition work can be difficult, taxing and strenuous — not to mention dangerous, particularly when extensive precautions aren’t taken. 

Demolition involves an understanding of structures and how buildings are built. This allows workers to understand the potential consequences of tampering with or removing things like walls, beams and other structures. Demolition also involves the use of heavy equipment like excavators. Dangers include falling debris, explosions, dust and other risks like collapsing ceilings and floors.

Who do I hire to get my home or property demolished?

If you choose to have your house torn down by machinery, you will need to hire a demolition contractor or company. These jobs require the use of heavy machinery like excavators, wrecking balls, bulldozers and more. The waste will then be scooped up and placed in dumpsters, which are hauled away by trucks. Another type of demolition is done by hand, and this service can leave you with salvageable parts to reuse in another home. 

Search for demolition professionals on Thumbtack, and make your decision based on their customer ratings, reviews, project photos and cost estimates.

How long does it take to tear down a house?

This depends mostly on the size of the house and the complexity of operating on the worksite. Generally, you can expect a house teardown to take between one and several days. When you’re discussing your demolition project with potential local contractors, also ask them how long the project will take.

What's the difference between demolition and excavation?

Demolition is the act of tearing down a structure, like a house or building. It has its own name because the process itself is a skilled trade. Demolition crews must know how to safely and effectively bulldoze or tear a house down, how to handle different materials and occasionally even how to salvage certain materials from the house. 

Excavation is the use of excavators to perform manual work like digging, trenching and tunneling. It also often involves surviving the ground, removing topsoil and clearing rocky surfaces.
