Honest Cost of House Demolition in Jacksonville
November 13 2024It usually starts with a moment. Maybe you’re standing in your backyard, looking at that house you’ve patched up one too many times.
Or perhaps you’re sitting at your kitchen table at 2 AM, staring at another repair estimate that feels like a punch to the gut.
That’s often when homeowners in Jacksonville start Googling demolition costs.
You might have seen those “demolition of a house starts at $497.82” articles floating around. (We have no idea where that number came from either).
Here’s a real number for you:
House demolition starts with a phone call (904)892-8233 . Because until we see your property, any price we give you would be about as accurate as that $497.82.
The reality is – it doesn’t matter what number you found on the internet. What matters is finding someone who’ll give you real price, handle things properly, and stick to their words.
Cost Factors
We hear now and then from homeowners who’ve reached that moment. Sometimes it’s the insurance adjuster who finally said what they already knew.
Sometimes it’s the renovation estimate that was the last straw. Sometimes they just want to stop throwing good money after bad.
Before we get into everything else, let’s be clear about what actually moves the numbers:
It comes down to two main things – your house’s size (we price by square footage) and its construction materials. Heavy materials mean more to pay to landfill.
Sure, things like location and accessibility matter, but they’re more about planning than pricing.
And while permits and utility disconnections are part of every project’s cost, they’re constants – kind of like taxes, unavoidable but predictable. We include all these in your quote because surprises aren’t part of our process.
Maybe you’ve got a historic home in Riverside where every brick tells a story, but those stories are getting expensive to maintain.
Or a beachside property where salt air has taken its toll. Perhaps it’s a tight urban lot where space is at a premium.
