Comprehensive Light Demolition Services

Experience That Makes the Difference

Our light demolition specialists have successfully completed over 3,500 selective removal projects across Fort Myers, from historic downtown properties to modern developments in Gateway. We understand the unique challenges of Florida’s construction landscape—older structures with concealed electrical systems, plumbing configurations that require careful navigation, and the precision needed to preserve structural integrity while removing specific components.

Professional-Grade Interior Demolition Expertise

Every light demolition project receives the same meticulous attention whether it’s a single bathroom wall or a complete kitchen teardown. Our certified technicians carry specialized tools designed for controlled interior demolition—reciprocating saws with precision blades, controlled-impact hammers, and dust containment systems that protect your home’s air quality throughout the process.

Non-load-bearing wall removal, partition adjustments, and opening creation that opens floor plans while maintaining structural safety. Each interior demolition includes professional assessment to ensure code compliance.

Flooring Replacement Prep

Hardwood, tile, and carpet removal that prepares subfloors for new installation. Our light demolition methods preserve underlying structures while eliminating old materials efficiently.

Safety-First Interior Demolition Protocols

Fort Myers light demolition regulations require specific safety measures that we implement as standard practice. Our crews maintain OSHA-compliant safety protocols including proper ventilation systems, dust control measures, and hazardous material identification procedures. We coordinate with Lee County building departments when permits are required and handle all utility disconnections safely.

Environmental responsibility guides our interior demolition practices. We sort materials for recycling—metal fixtures go to scrap processors, clean wood gets diverted to construction reuse programs, and concrete materials are processed for road base applications. This approach typically reduces disposal costs by 30-35% while supporting Lee County’s sustainability goals.

Precision Light Demolition Process

Our interior demolition methodology begins with comprehensive site assessment and utility mapping. We identify electrical circuits, plumbing runs, and HVAC components that must be preserved or properly disconnected. This planning phase prevents costly mistakes and ensures your project stays on schedule.
Controlled removal techniques protect surrounding structures while efficiently clearing designated areas. We use containment barriers to isolate work zones, preventing dust and debris from spreading throughout your home. Our light demolition crews work systematically, removing materials in reverse construction order to maintain structural stability.

Transparent Interior Demolition Pricing

Fort Myers light demolition costs typically range from $2.50-$4.75 per square foot for standard residential projects, with complex interior demolition work commanding $5.50-$8.25 per square foot. Our pricing includes all labor, equipment, debris removal, and site cleanup. Kitchen light demolition projects average $1,200-$2,800, while bathroom interior demolition ranges from $800-$2,200, depending on fixture complexity and material types.

We provide detailed project consultations to match services with actual needs. A typical wall removal generates 8-12 cubic yards of debris, while complete room interior demolition may require 15-25 cubic yards of disposal capacity. Right-sizing our services prevents cost overruns and eliminates the need for additional hauling.

Complete Light Demolition Solutions

Beyond basic interior demolition, we coordinate with utility companies for safe disconnections, handle permit applications when required, and provide post-demolition site preparation. Our sister company, Reuse It Pros, processes salvageable materials from light demolition projects—quality cabinets, fixtures, and building materials get second lives rather than landfill disposal.

What Our Clients Say

Frequently Asked Questions

What’s the difference between light demolition and regular junk removal?

Light demolition involves structural removal like walls, fixtures, and built-in components, while junk removal handles loose items. Our interior demolition services require specialized tools, safety protocols, and often permits that regular hauling doesn’t need.

Do I need permits for interior demolition projects in Fort Myers?

Lee County requires permits for light demolition involving structural changes, electrical modifications, or plumbing alterations. Non-structural interior demolition like cabinet removal typically doesn’t require permits, though we verify requirements for each project.

How do you protect other areas during light demolition work?

We install protective barriers, use dust containment systems, and seal off work areas to prevent debris spread. Our interior demolition methods include plastic sheeting, negative air pressure systems, and careful material handling to protect your home.

Can you handle hazardous materials during demolition?

We identify potential hazardous materials like asbestos or lead paint during assessment. While we don’t remove these materials ourselves, we coordinate with licensed abatement professionals and pause light demolition work until proper removal is completed.

What happens to materials removed during interior demolition?

We sort all light demolition materials for recycling and reuse. Metals go to scrap processors, clean wood gets donated or recycled, and fixtures in good condition are processed through our reuse program. Less than 25% typically reaches landfills.
