Why Exterior Demolition Requires Expertise

Unlike interior demolition, exterior demolition comes with higher risk and greater complexity. You’re not just tearing something down, you’re protecting what stays up.

Poor planning or inexperience can lead to structural damage, city violations, or safety incidents. That’s why property owners, contractors, and developers across NYC trust EDW. We don’t just meet the minimum, we exceed it.

FAQs

What are the three types of demolition?

The three main types of demolition are interior, exterior, and total demolition. Interior involves removing non-structural elements. Exterior targets outer structures like walls or facades. Total demolition is a complete teardown of an entire building or structure.

How much does demolition usually cost?

Demolition typically costs between $5 to $15 per square foot, depending on building size, materials, access, and required permits. Small residential jobs may start at a few thousand dollars, while larger commercial demolitions can cost significantly more.

How do you estimate the cost of demolition?

Demolition cost estimates are based on factors like square footage, building materials, site accessibility, debris volume, hazardous materials, and permit needs. Most professionals offer free on-site evaluations to provide accurate, customized quotes for your specific project.

What is house demolition called?

House demolition is commonly referred to as residential demolition. It involves tearing down an entire home or part of a structure, such as a garage or extension. The process includes permitting, utility disconnects, structural removal, and site cleanup.
