Plan your interior demolition.
Sandlot removes selected kitchen, bathroom, wall and flooring materials, then hauls the debris and sweeps the work area. The first decision is exactly what comes out and what must stay.
Define the tear-out before the remodel
A room name is a starting point, not a demolition scope. In a kitchen, list cabinets, countertops, flooring and soffits separately. In a bathroom, identify the finishes and fixtures you want removed. Mark anything that must be saved, including reusable appliances, doors and adjacent flooring.
Send the remodel plan if you have one, along with wide photos and close-ups of the boundaries. A partial tear-out needs a clear stopping line so the next trade knows what surface to expect. Sandlot reviews the details before confirming the work.
Resolve what the photos cannot show
A photo cannot establish whether a wall carries a load, what is inside it or whether a material contains asbestos. Tell Sandlot about known utility runs, past alterations and any inspection or testing reports. Structural decisions, utility isolation and any required approvals must be resolved with the appropriate professionals before work begins.
Sandlot does not haul asbestos or other hazardous materials. Do not disturb an unknown material to get a better photograph. A larger or uncertain demolition scope may need an in-person assessment.
Plan the route out
Note the floor level, stairs, elevator rules, entry width and distance from the room to the loading area. Tell the crew which occupied rooms and finished surfaces need protection. Share any building access restrictions and the date the next contractor is expected.
Ask what will be removed, what remains and what cleanup is included in the estimate. Swept after demolition is different from a finished surface ready for a specific flooring or cabinetry system; confirm preparation requirements with the installer.
Does interior demolition include rebuilding?
This service covers the agreed tear-out, haul-off and cleanup. Do not assume new walls, flooring, plumbing or electrical work are included; arrange the next trade separately.
