Planning the job

Separate the building from what is inside

  • A garage teardown often starts with decisions about storage.
  • Tools, shelving, machinery and household items may need to be kept, moved or removed before the building itself is addressed.
  • Iron Elk reviews those boundaries with the demolition operator and any required professionals.

Decide what happens to the garage footprint

  • Keeping the slab can be a useful option when you have a suitable future use for it, but retaining concrete is a different request from confirming it can support a replacement structure.
  • Existing footings, floor levels and access may affect that decision.
  • For a footprint returning to yard, slab removal, underlying material, backfill and grading need their own place in the plan.

Frequently asked questions

What about the stuff still in it?

It prices with the photos and rides out first, sorted: scrap free at the county, donations delivered with any receipt the organization supplies, trash weighed.

Do garages need a demo permit?

Often yes for a structure that size. The answer is checked for your town when you book.
