Demolition · North Palm Beach, FL
Florida State-Certified General Contractor CGC1528750
Teardowns, interior tear-outs, slab and pool removal for North Palm Beach homes and lots, done by a licensed general contractor who pulls the permit, orders the asbestos and lead checks, hauls the debris and leaves the lot ready to rebuild. Free estimates.
Scope of Work
Interior gut and tear-outs ahead of a remodel, selective and structural demolition, whole-house teardowns, detached garages, sheds and carports, slabs and driveways, swimming-pool removal and fill, and unsafe or storm-damaged structures. The same general contractor can then clear and grade the lot or carry on into the rebuild, so there is no hand-off between a demolition crew and a builder.
Parcels & Permitting
North Palm Beach is an incorporated village on the Lake Worth Lagoon, and building permits for work inside it go through the Village, not through the Palm Beach County Building Division that handles unincorporated parcels. Much of the housing is mid-century concrete-block ranch on canal and Intracoastal-side lots, with newer custom homes replacing teardowns, plus condominium and townhome communities and gated neighborhoods such as Lost Tree Village and Old Port Cove. A teardown on a waterfront lot usually brings more review than one on an inland street, so we check the parcel before we quote.
Before a wall comes down, every service to the building has to be shut off and confirmed: electric, water, sewer or septic, and gas where there is any. We coordinate those disconnects as the licensed general contractor and carry the demolition permit through final inspection. Ask the Village or us for the current submittal list for your address, because requirements change with scope and code edition.
Asbestos & Lead First
Federal asbestos rules call for an inspection before demolition, with notification to the state where the rule applies, and a home built before 1978 can carry lead-based paint. Plenty of North Palm Beach housing dates from the 1950s through the 1970s, so we plan for both. We are an EPA Lead-Safe Certified Firm (#NAT-F122701-2), we arrange the survey, and where it calls for abatement we coordinate a licensed abatement contractor before demolition starts, which protects the neighbours, the crew and your permit.
Staging & Haul-Off
Many North Palm Beach lots are long and narrow with water behind them, and a driveway is often the only place to stage a dumpster and a machine. Before the job is scheduled we walk the site, decide where the container and equipment sit, plan the truck route and ask any gated community or association for its contractor-access rules. Where the lot is too tight for a machine we take the structure down by hand and in sections, which is slower and is priced that way. Concrete and masonry are kept apart from wood-frame and mixed debris because they are weighed and tipped differently, and loads go to permitted disposal facilities. Near the water we also keep dust and runoff out of the canal.

If your North Palm Beach home sits in an association, BeacCorp property management in North Palm Beach handles the board side, which matters because the association will want to approve contractor access, dumpster placement and truck routes before a teardown starts.
Questions, Answered
North Palm Beach is an incorporated village, so the Village issues building permits for work inside it, separate from the Palm Beach County Building Division that covers unincorporated areas. We apply as the licensed general contractor, coordinate the utility disconnects and carry the permit through final inspection. Ask the Village or us for the current submittal list for your address.
Federal asbestos rules call for an inspection before demolition, with notification where the rule applies, and any home built before 1978 can contain lead-based paint.

It can. Canal and Intracoastal-side parcels often bring extra review, tighter staging and the need to keep dust and runoff out of the water. We look at your parcel before we quote.
Yes. Gated communities and associations set their own contractor-access hours, truck routes and dumpster rules. We ask for them before scheduling and plan the haul-off around them.
Concrete and masonry are separated from wood-frame and mixed debris and hauled to permitted disposal facilities. If a rebuild is planned we can remove the slab so the new foundation starts clean, and the lot is left clean or graded.
It depends on scope, the age of the building, permitting and disconnect timing, debris volume and site access. We do not put a price on a job before we have walked it, so every estimate is free and in person. Call (561) 779-3213.
