How much does demolition cost in Vancouver?

In the world of construction, quality demolition services are often overlooked as it seems that many people think “anyone can do it.” While it may be true that the demolition process is easier than erecting a building, there is a notable difference between a professional demolition team and a group of amateurs. Emkor Construction has long been recognized as a premier local construction company, and we also have the best Vancouver demolition contractors in the business. To do a demolition project right, you need a professional demolition contractor to oversee the process. While every commercial demolition and residential demolition project will have a slightly different price tag, here are the major variables that dictate how much demolition services will cost.

Permits

Every demolition project requires a permit which is obtained once all necessary municipal bodies have been informed of the demolition. The cost of permits varies, but you should anticipate paying a couple of hundred dollars.

Size of Building

The size of the building is perhaps the biggest factor in determining the cost of a demolition process. You can measure the size of the building to be taken down and call your demolition contractor for free quotes and free estimates.

Location

The location of the commercial demolition or residential demolition project will play a major role in the final cost of your demolition services. As an extreme example, a big building in a densely populated urban center will cost more than a small home in the middle of nowhere.

Building Materials

The materials used in construction will impact the final cost of demolition. While the actual construction materials are important, potentially hazardous materials are of even greater concern. Of note, asbestos is present in a lot of older buildings and will require special professionals and are to remove it safely.

Waste and Debris Removal

Finally, once your building has been demolished, there will be associated fees for waste and debris removal. Places like Emkor Construction can bring their own dumpsters and will make debris removal a breeze. Other places may charge extra fees for end-of-project waste management.
