How much would it cost for a garage to be demolished?

Question

We have a pre-fab concrete garage with a corrugated felt roof that needs to be demolished. How much would it cost to get someone in to do the job (just a rough idea). We have no access for vehicles to get in but it does all unscrew apart into panels.

Answer 1

I really think you have the best answer more than once. many working people would like a garage but cannot afford one. Put a couple of cards up in your local supermarket, tobacconist , newsagents etc notice boards - FREE to who ever can dismantle and take away. I did this with a similar garage to yours and a card in my local Morrisons resulted in the garage going within 72 hours at no cost to me at all.

Answer 2

How big is it, and what state are you located in?

It's getting rid of the concrete that will drive the price up.

Answer 3

A liter of gas and a match,just kidding.

Here in the USA for this we would use a roll off and dismantle.This is not very labor intensive but extremely safety intensive.

Common sense and determination should have it done in a weekend.

Answer 4

hi cookie  i would do it for 500quid  all gone in one day

Answer 5

advertise it as free to anyone who dismantles and removes.

I am sure there must be someone looking for a garage!

make sure u have no asbestos in the roof tho.

If it is asbestos you can remove it for  free  yourself  you will get all the advice from your council F but would cost a few hunderd pounds if u had a contractor to do it.

Answer 6

If you have some time before clearing the site, why not join your local Yahoo Freecycle group and offer the garage 'for free' . Then the dismantling and removal is their problem !

Otherwise, in the UK , you would need one or two waste skips at perhaps £ 120 each,  plus a couple of labourers, at £100 - 150 per day , so guesstimate is £5 -600 , possibly £1000 . But remember, its all dependant on someone giving you a quote.
