Questions before the boards come up
Straight answers about access, preparation, debris, estimates and what to flag before demolition begins.
What affects a deck demolition estimate?
Footprint, height, stairs, railings, material, attachment points, footings, utilities, decay and access to the loading area.
Does haul-away come with demolition?
Confirm that in the written scope. This site treats debris removal as a detail to agree on, not an automatic promise.
Can I keep some boards?
Ask before work starts and mark what should remain. Rot, coatings and embedded fasteners may limit safe reuse.
Should I remove furniture first?
Yes. Clear furniture, grills, planters and loose items from the work zone and travel path.
Do I need a permit?
Requirements depend on the address and scope. Confirm responsibility before work begins.
Can you work around a hot tub or roof?
Those connections need direct review and may change the scope or require another trade.
Start with the structure, not a guess.
Share the size, height, material and access. The team can tell you what else is needed to discuss the job.
