What comes out in a kitchen or bathroom demolition?

It depends on how far your remodel goes. Some projects just swap cabinets and counters; others take the room down to the studs and subfloor. We agree on the scope before starting, so the room is left exactly where your contractor needs it.

Kitchens

  • Upper and lower cabinets, pantry units and islands
  • Countertops, including laminate, solid surface and stone
  • Tile backsplashes and tile or other flooring
  • Drywall behind cabinets when walls are being opened

Bathrooms

  • Tubs, shower pans and surrounds, and glass enclosures
  • Vanities, mirrors, medicine cabinets and toilets
  • Wall and floor tile, including mortar beds where needed
  • Drywall or backer board in the agreed areas

If you want to keep or donate cabinets, a vanity or fixtures, tell us when you send photos. We'll remove them carefully instead of breaking them down.

Countertops are worth a note. Laminate comes off in pieces, but stone and solid-surface tops are heavy and awkward, and they need to be removed carefully when the cabinets below are staying. Tell us what your counters are made of when you send photos.

What should you take care of before kitchen or bathroom demolition?

Kitchens and bathrooms have more connections than any other room, so preparation matters. Before we start:

  • Have a plumber shut off the water and disconnect and cap supply lines and drains for the fixtures coming out.
  • Have gas lines and electrical circuits to appliances and fixtures disconnected by the appropriate party.
  • Empty every cabinet and drawer, and move personal items out of the room.
  • Arrange separate disposal for refrigerators, freezers and any appliance containing refrigerant. These aren't accepted in our dumpsters, and a load found with them is returned to the job site with a $100 surcharge.
  • Check with your city's building department about whether your remodel needs a permit.

If you suspect old flooring, wall texture or other materials in the room contain asbestos, have them tested by a qualified professional before demolition. We don't accept or haul asbestos.

Once the room is prepped, the tear-out itself goes faster and cleaner, and your plumber and electrician walk into a room that is ready for them.

Dumpster sizes

Trailer sizes that fit this debris

A single kitchen or bathroom doesn't take much space, but tile, mortar beds and stone counters are heavy. A 15 or 18 yard trailer usually holds it; each rental includes 1 ton, and weight over that is $120 per ton, so tile-heavy jobs can go over.

FAQ

Kitchen and Bathroom Demolition questions

How long does a kitchen or bathroom demolition take?

It depends on the size of the room and how much comes out. Send photos to (954) 247-1399 and we'll give you a time estimate with your quote.

Do you disconnect plumbing and gas before demolition?

No. Plumbing, gas and electrical need to be shut off and disconnected by the appropriate party, such as a plumber, electrician or your utility provider, before we start.

Can you remove cabinets without damaging them so I can reuse them?

Yes, if you tell us up front. We'll take them out carefully and set them aside instead of breaking them down for disposal.

Is tile heavy enough to matter if I rent a dumpster?

Yes. Tile and mortar add weight fast. Each dump trailer rental includes 1 ton, and weight over that is $120 per ton, so tile-heavy jobs usually fit better in a smaller trailer like the 15 yard ($350).
