Frequently Asked Questions
How much does garage demolition cost in Milwaukee?
Most standard two-car wood-frame garage demolitions in Milwaukee fall in the $3,290 to $3,890 range. Single-car garages are usually lower, while brick, block, and larger or taller garages cost more because they require more labor and disposal weight.
Does a leaning garage cost more to demolish?
Usually no. Leaning and condemned garages change the demolition plan and urgency, but the price is still driven mainly by size, material, access, and whether slab removal is included.
Does the permit cost extra?
No. The City of Milwaukee demolition permit is included in the $100 down payment on UJUNKY garage jobs.
Can you remove the slab too?
Yes. Slab removal is optional and can be included if you want the concrete broken out and hauled away after the garage is removed.
My garage was condemned or got a raze order — can you tear it down?
Yes — condemned and raze-ordered garages are one of the most common jobs we do. We pull the demolition permit, confirm utility disconnects, remove the garage and slab, and haul everything off so the order is cleared.
How much does it cost to demolish a condemned garage?
Cost depends on size, slab, and access, but a condemned single-car garage teardown is typically an affordable, one-day job. We give a firm, scope-based quote up front — call 414-533-8000.
Will you handle the paperwork so the city closes the order?
Yes. We pull the raze/demolition permit and complete the teardown to code so the municipality can verify the work and close out the order.
I got a raze order from the City of Milwaukee — what now?
A raze order from Milwaukee DNS means the structure must be demolished by a deadline or the city may raze it and assess the cost to you. UJUNKY handles condemnation and raze-order demolition end to end: permit, utility disconnects, teardown, debris haul-off, and final grade — on the city’s timeline. Call 414-533-8000 right away so we can beat the deadline.
How fast can you demolish a condemned property?
Once utilities are disconnected and the raze permit is issued, the teardown itself is usually fast — often a day or two for a house or garage. The schedule is mostly driven by permit and disconnect timing, which we manage for you to hit the city’s deadline.
Do you work directly with Milwaukee DNS on condemnations?
Yes. We deal with Milwaukee’s Department of Neighborhood Services regularly on raze orders and condemnations, pull the required permits, and document the completed demolition so the order is satisfied.
What does interior demolition include?
Interior (selective) demolition removes walls, flooring, ceilings, cabinetry, fixtures, and finishes down to the studs or slab while leaving the building’s structure and exterior intact — the prep step before a remodel or tenant build-out. We protect what stays, contain dust, and haul out all debris.
Do you do commercial and residential interior demolition in Milwaukee?
Yes. We handle residential gut-outs (kitchens, baths, basements, whole-home interiors) and commercial interiors (offices, retail, restaurant build-outs), working around occupied spaces and building rules when needed.
Do you handle permits and protect the rest of the building?
Yes. We pull any required Milwaukee permits, verify utility and load-bearing considerations before cutting, dust-protect adjacent areas, and leave the space clean and ready for the next trade. Call 414-533-8000 for a scope-based quote.
Do you demolish and remove mobile and manufactured homes?
Yes. We demolish and haul off single- and double-wide mobile and manufactured homes across Southeast Wisconsin, including the unit, skirting, attached additions, decks, and debris — leaving the lot or pad cleared.
Can you remove a mobile home from a park or a private lot?
Both. We work in mobile-home parks (coordinating with park access and rules) and on private and rural lots, sized to the access available at the site.
How much does mobile home demolition cost in Wisconsin?
Pricing depends on the size of the home, what’s attached, access, and disposal volume. We provide a clear, scope-based quote after reviewing the unit — call 414-533-8000.
Do you replace sewer and lateral lines in Milwaukee?
Yes. We handle sewer lateral excavation and replacement — digging to the failed line, replacing it, backfilling, and restoring the surface. It’s a natural fit alongside our excavation and demolition work.
Do you handle the permits and locates for sewer work?
Yes. We arrange the required Milwaukee permits and utility locates before excavation so the dig is safe and code-compliant.
How much does sewer line replacement cost?
It depends on depth, length, access, and surface restoration. We quote each job after assessing the run — call 414-533-8000 for an estimate.
