Serving Lake Worth Beach

Sunshine State Junk Removal & Dumpster Rental — Coral Springs

Lake Worth Beach homes and what they mean for a demo job

Lake Worth Beach was incorporated as the Town of Lake Worth in 1913 and adopted its current name after a 2019 vote. About 1,000 cottages, most built between 1913 and 1949, still stand in the city, the largest concentration of that housing type in Florida.

The 1960s and 1970s added many apartment buildings, condominiums and larger commercial buildings. College Park, Old Lucerne and Old Town are historic districts on the National Register of Historic Places, and the city also recognizes local historic districts in Northeast Lucerne, Southeast Lucerne and South Palm Park.

General guidance

In general, cottages of that era are small wood-framed houses where an interior gut produces a lot of lumber, plaster and old flooring for the square footage, and a detached shed or garage out back is often part of the scope. Historic-district properties usually need approval before exterior demolition, while condos from the 1960s and '70s tend to limit work to unit interiors under building rules.

We serve the whole city, including Bryant Park, College Park, Downtown Jewel, Eden Place, Lake Cove, Mango Groves, Old Lucerne (Parrot Cove), Royal Poinciana, South Palm Park, Whispering Palms and the rest of the city's 17 recognized neighborhood associations. If your property is across the Intracoastal, over the Robert A. Harris Bridge, tell us about parking and loading space when you ask for a quote.

Permits in Lake Worth Beach

FAQ

Demolition in Lake Worth Beach: common questions

Can you demolish part of a historic cottage in Lake Worth Beach?

We can do the demolition once the property owner has the approvals. Homes in the National Register districts or the city's local historic districts usually need review before exterior changes, so check with the building department first.

What comes out of a cottage interior gut?

In general: plaster or old drywall, wood lath and trim, layered flooring, cabinets and dated fixtures. Cottages are small, but older materials are dense, so a load can reach its weight allowance before it looks full.

Do you tear down detached garages and backyard sheds?

Yes. Garage and structure demolition and shed demolition are available across Lake Worth Beach, with the debris hauled away. If the structure is in a historic district, confirm with the city before it comes down.

Can you work inside a 1960s or 1970s condo building?

Yes, for interior demolition. Get the association's rules on work hours, elevator use and where debris can be staged, and share them with your photos.

Where does your Lake Worth Beach team come from?

Lake Worth Beach is served from our Coral Springs location, with all of Palm Beach County and Broward in our service area. Phone us using the number on this page or text (954) 247-1399.
