Barn Dismantling and Demolition in Carthage, IL

How much does it cost to tear down a barn?

According to national averages, it costs roughly $5,000-$6,000 to demolish a post-and-beam barn that's 40 ft x 30 ft. This $5,000-$6,000 average includes mechanical demolition and debris disposal. Barn deconstruction costs can amount to double that (or more), but don't forget: The costs you re-coup from the salvaged wood may offset these prices. The cost to tear down a barn depends on a number of factors:

• Removal method - demolition or deconstruction
• Barn size
• Materials used to build the barn
• Barn accessibility
• Amount of debris - non-salvageable vs salvageable
• Barn's location
• Contractor you hire to do the work
