Most Sherrill house teardowns land between $9,000 and $35,000. A single-story house with no basement and no asbestos is at the low end, a standard two-story with a basement runs about $14,000 to $24,000, and larger homes or houses with asbestos and a full basement run $20,000 to $35,000. A detached garage, barn or pool adds about $2,000 to $6,000. You get one fixed written price before anything starts.

Yes. Under New York State Department of Labor Industrial Code Rule 56, an asbestos survey by a state-certified asbestos inspector is required before a building is demolished. Any asbestos found has to be removed by a state-licensed asbestos contractor before the teardown. We do the abatement as part of the job. We do not test: send the survey report if you have one, or untested material is priced as presumed asbestos.

Yes. In Sherrill, the demolition permit comes from the local code enforcement office. We file the application, line up the utility shutoffs it asks for, and handle the inspections.

The foundation and basement walls come out. The hole is backfilled in lifts and rough graded so the lot is level and ready to seed, sell or build on.

From a signed contract to mobilization is typically 2 to 5 weeks, mostly waiting on the survey, abatement and permit. Equipment time on the property runs days, not weeks, for most houses. The schedule comes with the written price.

Yes. Fire jobs follow the same survey and permit steps. If insurance is involved, the written price breaks out the scope line by line so it can go straight to the adjuster.

Yes. Send the address and a few photos and you get a written fixed price in 1 hour. No obligation. We do not work hourly or cost-plus on residential jobs, so you get a number you can plan against.

How a house demolition in Sherrill works

  1. Send the address and photos. Use the form below. You get a written fixed price in 1 hour.
  2. Asbestos abatement. NYS DOL Industrial Code Rule 56 requires a survey by a state-certified asbestos inspector. We do not test: send the report if you have one, or untested material is priced as presumed asbestos. Anything found is removed by a state-licensed asbestos contractor before the teardown.
  3. Demolition permit. We file with the Sherrill code enforcement office and supply what it asks for, typically the asbestos survey, utility shutoff letters and insurance certificates.
  4. Utilities disconnected. Electric and gas service removed by the utility, water shut off at the curb, sewer lateral capped.
  5. 811 locate request. UDig NY (811) is notified at least 2 and no more than 10 working days before the teardown, as state Code Rule 753 requires for demolition.
  6. Teardown and foundation removal. The house, basement walls and slab come out. Debris goes to DEC registered or permitted construction and demolition facilities, with disposal receipts kept for the job file.
  7. Backfill and grade. The hole is filled in lifts and rough graded so the lot is level.

Soils and backfill in Sherrill

Sherrill occupies a compact footprint on the Oneida County lake plain just north of Oneida, on terrain shaped by Glacial Lake Iroquois and the adjacent drumlin field. Soils across the city are dominated by Palmyra gravelly loam and Howard gravelly loam on the slightly higher outwash benches, with Honeoye silt loam on the drumlin flanks and Lamson and Minoa fine sandy loams in the lower swales.

Soil type decides how the basement hole is backfilled and compacted so the lot does not settle later.
