Interior demolition before an apartment or house renovation

Interior demolition before a renovation: chipping off tiles and plaster, taking up screed or a wooden floor, knocking down a partition. Say in an order what to remove and what it is made of, and crews will send responses. Or compare contractors yourself by prices, photos of work and client reviews.

How much demolition costs

What affects the price

  • Wall and floor material

    A drywall partition comes down quickly, while brick, cast-in-place concrete or reinforced screed call for a demolition hammer or diamond cutting.

  • Per meter or per piece

    Tiles, plaster and screed are usually priced per square meter, concrete per cubic meter, and doors, a bathtub or a toilet per piece.

  • What hides under the layer

    Under the tiles there may be another layer of old tiles, and the screed may turn out thicker than it looked: the real scope only shows once the surface is opened up.

  • Careful removal

    Taking up tiles or parquet so they can be laid again, or leaving the adjoining wall untouched, takes longer than simply breaking everything down to the base.

  • Bagging and carrying out debris

    Bags, carrying debris down from a floor with no elevator and loading it into a truck are often charged separately from the demolition itself.

How to choose a demolition crew

  1. 1

    Load-bearing wall or partition

    Before knocking down a wall or cutting an opening in it, find out whether it is load-bearing. In an apartment building, ask whether a design and approval are needed, and who prepares them.

  2. 2

    Wiring, pipes and underfloor heating

    Ask how the crew locates hidden wiring, pipes and underfloor heating before cutting walls or taking up screed, and who will cut the power to the room.

  3. 3

    Protecting what stays

    Agree on what will be covered with plastic sheeting — windows, radiators, the front door — and how the elevator and stairs used to carry debris out will be protected.

  4. 4

    Unit price up front

    Agree on the price per meter or per piece before work starts, and on how anything found under the layer will be charged: another layer of tiles or thicker screed.

  5. 5

    Debris after demolition

    Check whether the crew bags the debris and carries it out itself, or whether removal has to be ordered separately.

What to put in the order

The more precise the description, the more precise the prices in responses.
  • What to remove: walls, partitions, screed, tiles, plaster, flooring or doors

  • Material and approximate thickness, and for a wall whether it is load-bearing, if you know

  • Scope: area of tiles or screed, length of walls, number of doors and bathroom fixtures

  • Apartment or house, the floor and whether there is an elevator

  • What must be kept: tiles, parquet, neighboring walls or finishes

  • Who will bag and haul away the debris, and when you would like to start
