Kitchen countertop and backsplash demolition in Brentwood. We pulled the countertops off the perimeter cabinets and the island and took the backsplash down to the studs, while the cabinets, appliances and floors stayed protected for the new tops.
Kitchen demolition in St. Louis, MO
We take out cabinets, countertops, backsplash, flooring and appliances and haul them, so the kitchen is ready for the remodel. The work is in St. Louis City, St. Louis County and St. Charles County, and the haul is priced by the load.
Full kitchen tear-out or just the tops?
Both. Cabinets, counters, backsplash, flooring and appliances out, ready for the remodel. A full tear-out takes the cabinets too. A partial one leaves them.
Brentwood was the partial kind. We pulled the countertops off the perimeter cabinets and the island, and we took the backsplash down to the studs behind the range. The cabinets, the appliances and the floors stayed, and the floor was covered so the new tops could land on a protected kitchen. That photo is the first one below, and the city page is Brentwood.
What we remove
Cabinets, counters, backsplash, flooring and appliances. Appliances with Freon are an extra line on the haul, not a surprise at the truck. Anything with Freon — refrigerators, freezers, AC units, dehumidifiers — is $25 per item.
Flooring in a kitchen gut is often the heavy piece: tile, mortar, underlayment. If the tile is already broken out and sitting in a pile, that's construction debris removal. If it's still on the wall or the floor, it's this page.
How much does kitchen demolition cost?
Labor comes from the photos you send. A tops-only visit and a kitchen taken to the studs are different quotes. We don't list a per-square-foot kitchen price.
"Kitchen cabinets, counters and drywall" is one of the examples under a three-quarter load, From $515 for 12.75 cubic yards. Examples are typical, not promises — how things stack changes what fits. The other load prices, from a quarter truck to a full 17-yard truck, are on the pricing page.
Where are your kitchen demolition photos from?
The Brentwood photo is a located job. Two other kitchen photos are ours, and the file doesn't say which city or which day. Captions below stay neutral until that's filled in.
Before we start on a kitchen
Gas to the range, water to the sink, and electric to the dishwasher and disposal need to be shut off and capped before we cut. Mark cabinets you are reusing, appliances that stay, and anything structural.
A useful quote photo set is simple: the counters, the backsplash, the cabinets you want gone, the floor, and any appliance that has to leave. If only the tops are going, say that in the note so we don't price a full gut. The quote form is free. The load prices on the site are the haul, not the labor.
We're based in Florissant and we work kitchens across St. Louis City, St. Louis County and St. Charles County. The only kitchen tear-out with a city on file is Brentwood. The other two frames on this page stay unlabeled until we know where they were shot. Monday through Friday, 7am to 5pm. Licensed, with a $3 million insurance policy, and no City of St. Louis demolition certification.
We'll walk you through the permit question for your city. We don't pull City of St. Louis demolition permits. If a backsplash or a floor might contain asbestos, an inspector tests it first. We don't do abatement, and we can't take the material.

Kitchen Demolition questions
How much does demolition cost?
Demolition labor is quoted per job, because it depends on what's coming down and how. Send photos with a quote request and we'll give you a real number. Hauling the debris is priced by the load, from $175 for a quarter to $655 for a full 17-yard truck.
What happens to the debris?
It leaves with us in the same job. Loads go to a landfill facility that sorts and separates materials.
Do I need a permit for demolition?
It depends on your city and the job. We'll walk you through what permits your job needs. We're a licensed company, and we don't pull City of St. Louis demolition permits.
