Queen Creek Demolition Company - Pools – Concrete Driveway – Asphalt Removal

We’ve all seen the DIY videos on demolishing homes, concrete, pools and other structures around the home. It looks fun! However, what those videos don’t show you is that demolition is actually a very big job that requires a professional touch. 

Tearing out concrete or knocking down structures usually requires heavy equipment. Plus, you will have to haul that concrete to the landfill or recycling center. If you are not prepared for that yourself, your best bet is to hire an experienced contractor who will get the job done completely, cleanly, and correctly.

The price for asphalt and concrete removal in Queen Creek

Take a look around your home. Concrete and asphalt are everywhere -- from driveways to walkways, patios to porches, your property is surrounded by concrete and asphalt. While concrete can look great and perform well for many years, you may want to replace it. Maybe you want to redesign your patio or put in pavers in your walkway. 

On average, you can expect to spend roughly between $2 and $6 per square foot to remove concrete at your house. Why such a big difference in the price tag? 

  • Complexity: The more complex the project, the more it will cost. If you are removing reinforced concrete, that is going to cost more than tearing out thinner concrete.
  • Accessibility: Oftentimes heavy equipment like jackhammers and backhoes are used to remove concrete. If your job is easily accessible to that equipment, your project will cost less. However, you may be in a situation where the concrete you want to get rid of isn’t so easy to get to. Let’s say, the concrete is right up against your home or near some plants you want to keep. That is going to make the project cost more. 

How much does it cost to install and excavate a pool in Queen Creek?

When you think of the hot desert summers, you most likely think about going out to the pool. In addition to being a relaxing place to soak up the sun and get a little fun and exercise, they also add to the value of your home. But what if your home didn’t come with a swimming pool? Not to worry. You can have one installed.

It may seem out of reach, but you can have an in-ground pool installed at your home. How much will it cost? In the Queen Creek area, you can expect to spend $25,000 - $60,000 to excavate and install an in-ground pool. This includes digging out your pool, tile, lights and water features. Of course, as with any home improvement project, the price will depend on the complexity of the project and the extra amenities you may want to install. 

How much does it cost to remove a pool in  Queen Creek?

Your pool may look bucolic in your backyard, but when was the last time you jumped in it? Maybe the costs of maintaining your pool are keeping you from other activities you’d rather be doing -- traveling, eating out more often, getting that converted van you’ve had your eye on. 

If you don’t want a pool anymore, you’re in luck. Believe it or not, you can actually remove that pool and get the backyard you want, at the price you want. 

Usually, when people consider getting rid of their pool, they are thinking of an in-ground pool. While there are many factors involved in the cost of removing a swimming pool in Queen Creek, here’s how the cost is probably going to break down:

  • Demolition fee: Up to $300
  • Complete pool demolition: $7,000 to $15,000
  • Partial pool demolition: $3,500 to $7,000
  • Debris removal/Site grading: $1,000

Various factors that can affect the price.

  • Type of Demolition: There are two types of demolition.
    • Total: In a complete, or total, demolition, the pool is broken up, the debris hauled away and the hoel filled with dirt or gravel before the site is properly graded. This is a good option if you plan on building anything on the site. 
    • Partial: The cheaper option is a partial removal, also known as a fill-in. This involves breaking up part of the pool walls, drilling holes in the bottom for drainage and filling it in with fresh dirt or gravel. While this is a less expensive option it is not the one to choose if you plan on building anything on the site. It leaves behind small air pockets and cracks that can cause instability.
  • Site Accessibility: Time is money. The more accessible your pool is to the demolition team, the less time it will take to tear out your pool and the cheaper the project will be. Excavators and other heavy machinery need a lot of space, so obstacles such as fencing and outdoor playsets can increase the cost of labor. 
  • Size of Pool: Not surprisingly, the bigger the pool, the higher the cost of removing it. The complexity of your pool design may also affect demolition costs If you have a pool that has a custom shape, built-ins, waterfall, and a large deck, that is going to cost you more in labor costs, debris removal, dirt and gravel costs, and machinery.
  • Type of Materials: Most pools are lined with vinyl, fiberglass, gunite or concrete. If your pool is lined with concrete or gunite, it’s going to need navy machinery to break up and remove all the sidewalls and the bottom. It’s more time-consuming and tougher to remove compared to a vinyl or fiberglass pool removal.

Grading and Trenching Services In Queen Creek  

Are you planning new construction? Any time you plan on adding a new structure to your property, you have to make sure the area is properly graded and trenched. You may have heard about this, but what is grading and trenching?

  • Grading: This involved smoothing the ground by pushing the topsoil around the area. This provides an even, flat surface for construction or post-construction landscaping.
  • Trenching: Literally, with trenching, you are digging very deep, narrow holes in the ground. Why? You need trenches for installing:
    • drainage
    • retaining walls
    • cables
    • pipelines (gas, sewer, water, drains)
    • electrical or fiber conduits
    • sprinkler systems

Anytime you need grading or trenching done properly, it requires heavy equipment. That’s why you want to make sure to hire a professional to do the job.
