About Durabilt GC: Kitchen Demolition Experts in Staten Island, NY

Demolition can look simple, but one wrong cut can damage a pipe, wire, or wall, leading to a costly repair, which is exactly why so many homeowners search for kitchen demolition services near me instead of doing it themselves. Durabilt GC has served Staten Island homeowners since 1995, with Kitchen teardown as one of the first steps in nearly every renovation we handle.

We’re a licensed and insured general contractor, so we make sure every demolition is done safely and follows local codes. Before any work begins, our team checks for hidden plumbing, electrical, or structural issues behind the walls. Once the old kitchen is demolished, we can start your new kitchen remodel right away, so you don’t need to hire another company for the rebuild.

Kitchen Demolition & Gut Renovation Services | Durabilt GC
What We Remove

Our Kitchen Demolition Services

Every kitchen gut renovation is different. It depends on what needs to come out and what’s staying behind. Here’s what our team handles for every project, whether you’re still comparing kitchen gut renovation services or ready to book.

Cabinet & Countertop Removal

We carefully remove old cabinets and countertops without damaging the walls or flooring behind them. This step clears the space for whatever comes next, whether that’s new cabinetry, new countertops, or a full layout change.

Appliance Removal

We safely disconnect each appliance before removing it, whether it’s a refrigerator, stove, dishwasher, or something else. Gas and electrical lines get properly capped or shut off, so nothing is left unsafe once the appliance is gone. Refrigerators and other units with refrigerant get handled according to EPA disposal rules, not just tossed in a dumpster.

Read more →

Flooring Removal

We remove old tile, vinyl, or hardwood down to the subfloor. Each type of flooring comes up differently. Tile often needs to be chipped away, while vinyl and hardwood can usually be removed in larger sections. Once the subfloor is exposed, we check it for any damage so problems can be fixed before the new flooring goes in.

Wall Removal

Opening up a kitchen sometimes means removing a wall between rooms. Before we take it down, we check if it’s load-bearing, since that can change how the work needs to be done and whether extra support or a permit is needed.

Salvage & Deconstruction

If you’d rather donate usable cabinets, appliances, or fixtures than throw them out, let us know before we start. We can coordinate with local donation programs so your materials get a second life instead of ending up in a dumpster.

Debris Hauling & Disposal

Once we’re done, we haul away all the debris and take care of the disposal. We leave your kitchen clean, clear, and ready for the next step, so you don’t have to worry about any leftover mess.

Frequently Asked Questions

Old kitchen removal usually costs around $500 to $2,500, or about $5 to $12.50 per square foot. The final price depends on the size of your kitchen, what needs to be removed, and whether any walls are coming down. The best way to know what your project will cost is to get an on-site estimate and a clear written quote.

Most kitchen demolitions take one to three days. The exact timeline depends on the size of the kitchen, how much needs to be removed, and whether any walls are coming down.
