Crew removing interior drywall during home demolition

Whether you’re planning a full teardown or remodeling project, interior & exterior removal is a crucial part of the residential demolition process. These targeted demolitions help homeowners update, repurpose, or clear space without taking down the entire structure.

At Mayas Painting and Demolitions, we specialize in controlled, efficient removal work that’s tailored to your specific goals—whether that’s tearing down a wall, removing siding, or clearing an entire room.

What Is Interior & Exterior Removal?

Breaking It Down by Area

Interior removal focuses on walls, ceilings, floors, cabinets, and fixtures inside the home. Exterior removal includes elements like siding, roofing, decks, garages, or porches. These projects are common in renovations where the structure will remain but needs significant upgrades or layout changes.

This approach allows for cleaner, more cost-effective remodels without full demolition.

Ideal for Partial Demolition Projects

Many homeowners choose interior or exterior removal when:

  • Expanding rooms or creating open floor plans
  • Replacing old siding, decks, or roofing
  • Prepping for new additions or outdoor spaces
  • Repairing fire or water-damaged sections

Residential Demolition Process for Interior and Exterior Work

Step 1: Planning and Safety Checks

Before removal starts, we inspect your home to identify load-bearing walls, utilities, and any hazardous materials like asbestos. A work plan is created to protect surrounding areas and minimize disruption.

Step 2: Careful, Controlled Demolition

Our team uses hand tools, saws, and small-scale equipment to remove only what’s needed. We cover surfaces, seal off work areas, and disconnect electrical or plumbing lines to avoid damage.

Each step is performed with precision to protect your home’s structure and future use.

What’s Typically Removed During These Projects?

  • Interior: drywall, flooring, tile, framing, kitchen cabinets, insulation
  • Exterior: siding, trim, decking, patios, detached garages, chimneys

All materials are sorted for recycling when possible. We handle the disposal and leave the space clean and ready for the next phase of your remodel or rebuild.
