St. Louis Park Demolition Contractor

Twin Cities Concrete Demolition serves St. Louis Park with full-service demolition, concrete removal, and asphalt tear-out. From the older homes around Fern Hill and Birchwood to the newer Excelsior & Grand area, we tear out aging concrete and asphalt across one of the metro's most established first-ring suburbs.

St. Louis Park is older than most Twin Cities suburbs — a lot of homes were built between the 1920s and 1950s. That means decades of frost heave, settlement, and base failure have done their work on the original concrete. You can't pour new concrete over a failed slab and expect it to last. The old material has to come out clean.

We've worked across St. Louis Park — alley garages in Fern Hill, driveway tear-outs near Browndale Park, commercial concrete demo along Excelsior Boulevard. Most residential jobs finish in a single day. Same-day estimates, same-week scheduling, licensed and insured for Hennepin County.

How We Handle Demolition in St. Louis Park

St. Louis Park homes — especially in the older neighborhoods — have some quirks worth knowing up front. A lot of garages sit on alleys with tight access. Many driveways were poured in the 1940s and '50s and have unknown thickness or hidden reinforcement. We come prepared.

Every job starts with a site walk. We check slab condition where we can, look at alley vs. street access, and decide if partial cuts are needed. A concrete saw scores clean break lines, then a skid steer with a breaker chunks the slab into liftable sections straight into our dump trailer.

After the slab is out, we sweep for stray rebar and aggregate, and address subbase prep if needed. Older St. Louis Park concrete often hides soft spots and decades of seasonal shifting — we flag what we see so your concrete contractor isn't surprised when they pour.

Everything leaves with us the same day in our own dump trailers. No dumpster sitting in your alley or driveway. Most residential St. Louis Park jobs are completely cleared in four to seven hours.

How Much Does Demolition Cost in St. Louis Park?

Most residential demolition and concrete removal in St. Louis Park runs $3–$8 per square foot for concrete or $2–$5 per square foot for asphalt. A standard two-car driveway typically falls between $1,200 and $2,500. Residential garage demos run $1,500–$3,500.

St. Louis Park's older concrete sometimes has unknown thickness or stacked overlays from decades of patchwork. Driveways that were used as parking pads or have multiple layers of asphalt overlaid on top of original concrete cost more to remove because of total material weight to haul.

Access in St. Louis Park varies. Many alley garages have tight access — we have skid steers sized for residential alleys and hand-tool crews when alleys won't fit equipment. Newer neighborhoods near Excelsior & Grand have wider open access. We walk every site before quoting so the price reflects actual conditions.

Do You Need a Permit for Demolition in St. Louis Park?

For most concrete and asphalt removal on private property in St. Louis Park, no permit is required. You're taking out something that's already there. The exception is anything that touches the public right-of-way — sidewalks the city maintains, driveway aprons, or curb cuts. Those require coordination with St. Louis Park Engineering.

Garage demolition, shed removal, or any structure on a foundation requires a demolition permit through the City of St. Louis Park Inspection Services department. The process is straightforward and turnaround is typically a few business days. We can coordinate with your contractor or handle the application directly.

St. Louis Park also has specific tree protection ordinances in older neighborhoods. If your demo work is near a significant tree, there may be tree protection requirements. We're familiar with these and plan equipment paths to protect mature trees. Flag specific concerns during the estimate.
