How we price a teardown
We quote three ways, depending on how much we have been able to verify. We tell you which
one you are getting.
| What you asked for | What it takes | What you can do with it |
| Budget range |
Address and parcel records |
Budgeting only. Not a fixed price. |
| Verified takeoff |
Survey or plans, measured and checked by a person |
Solid enough to underwrite a deal. |
| Bid-ready price |
Site walk: dimensions, foundation, access, contents, utilities |
A fixed price, with the scope and exclusions written out. |
We will not give a fixed price off an address alone. Foundation type, slab thickness, access
width and whatever is still inside the house all move the number. None of it is visible
from the street.
Most of the cost is hauling
We count loads by stream: clean concrete and block, mixed construction debris, metal and
appliances, vegetation. Container counts run off whichever is greater, the volume or the
legal weight limit. Square footage is only a check against the total.
