Our Interior Demolition Process in Midtown Memphis

1

Site Assessment and Hazard Inspection (Day 1)

EvoNorth schedules a 30-45 minute walkthrough to identify asbestos (common in Midtown Memphis homes built 1945-1975), lead paint, mold, and structural considerations. We photograph conditions and obtain Memphis Building Division permit requirements. Most assessments reveal $200-$800 in hazmat testing costs if substances are suspected.

2

Permit Filing and Utility Coordination (Days 2-3)

We submit demolition permits to Memphis City Government (typical approval 5-7 business days) and coordinate with Memphis Light Gas & Water for safe disconnections. Midtown Memphis HOA properties like Central Gardens require additional board approval (3-5 days). We handle all paperwork.

3

Demolition and Debris Removal (Days 4-8)

Our licensed crew begins systematic removal with dust containment barriers, negative air systems, and HEPA filtration running continuously. Drywall, framing, flooring, and fixtures are removed in logical sequence. All materials exit to our trucks for transport to licensed Memphis waste facilities or recycling centers. Interior demolition typically completes within 4-5 business days for average Midtown Memphis kitchens or bathrooms.

4

Final Inspection and Handoff (Day 9-10)

We coordinate final inspection with Memphis Building Services if required, provide completion photos, and deliver signed work documentation. The space is swept clean and ready for contractor framing, MEP rough-in, or next phase within 24 hours of completion.
