Complete Site Clearing

Clear the slate,
then build something worth it.

Demolition is the least glamorous part of a build and one of the easiest places for a project to go wrong. Skip the permit and the disposal ends up with a stop-work order on your record. Bury the debris and you've contaminated your own site. Cut a live line and you've created a problem that reaches well past the project.

LP has cleared sites across Post Falls, CDA, Hayden, and Rathdrum since 2005. We pull the permit, coordinate the utility disconnects, demolish with our own equipment, segregate and haul every stream to a permitted facility, and leave the site graded and ready for the next trade. Permitted, documented, and clean.

Why Demolition With LP

What a clean, permitted
demolition actually saves you.

Complete Site Clearing

Remove all obstacles and debris, leaving a clean slate for construction or landscaping.

Permitted & Compliant

All required Kootenai County permits obtained, DEQ-compliant disposal of all materials.

Recycling Focus

Concrete and asphalt recycled where possible, reducing environmental impact and disposal cost.

One Crew, Full Cleanup

Demolition, segregation, haul-off, backfill, and final grade performed by LP with owned equipment. The site is ready for the next trade when we leave.

Demolition Methods

Permitted, segregated,
and gone from your property.

01

Permit Determination & Application

LP identifies whether your project falls under unincorporated Kootenai County rules or a municipal permit in Post Falls or Coeur d'Alene, then handles the application. No demolition starts before the permit is issued.

02

Utility Disconnect Coordination

Utilities must be properly disconnected by licensed contractors before demolition begins. LP coordinates that sequence so nothing is cut live and the schedule holds.

03

Controlled Structural Demolition

Sheds, garages, carports, and outbuildings come down in a controlled sequence using our own equipment — protecting adjacent structures, trees, and hardscape you intend to keep.

04

Concrete & Asphalt Removal

Slabs, driveways, and patios are broken out at the right depth, loaded, and hauled. Where site quantities warrant, concrete and asphalt are routed to aggregate recyclers instead of landfill.

05

Segregated Debris Haul-Off

Concrete, asphalt, clean wood, metal, drywall, and mixed C&D waste are separated by stream and hauled to permitted facilities. Nothing is buried, burned, or abandoned on your property.

06

Backfill & Site Restoration

After haul-off, LP backfills and grades the cleared area to ready-for-construction condition, so the next trade can start on your schedule rather than waiting on cleanup.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

What demolition permits are required in Kootenai County?
In unincorporated Kootenai County, demolition permits are required for structures with electrical, plumbing, or mechanical systems and for structures over 200 square feet. Within the City of Post Falls or the City of Coeur d'Alene, municipal demolition permits are required from the respective city building department. LP determines the applicable permit authority for your site location and obtains all required permits before mobilizing equipment. We do not begin demolition without proper permits in place.
What can LP demolish?
LP demolishes concrete slabs, driveways, patios, sidewalks, outbuildings (sheds, garages, carports, greenhouses), asphalt surfaces, retaining walls, rockeries, landscape structures, and wood-frame residential accessory structures. We do not demolish occupied residential structures, structures with active utilities (utilities must be properly disconnected by licensed contractors before LP mobilizes), or structures containing known hazardous materials without prior abatement by a licensed hazmat contractor.
What happens to the debris after demolition?
LP hauls all demolition debris to permitted disposal facilities in compliance with Idaho DEQ waste disposal requirements. Concrete is delivered to aggregate recyclers when site quantities warrant. Asphalt is similarly recyclable and LP coordinates with local paving recyclers. Clean wood framing is separated for wood waste disposal. Drywall, roofing materials, and mixed debris go to permitted construction and demolition (C&D) waste facilities. LP does not bury, burn, or abandon demolition debris on your property.
How much does concrete demolition cost in Post Falls or CDA?
Concrete removal is typically priced by the square foot and by thickness. A standard 4-inch residential driveway or patio typically runs $3–$6 per square foot including demolition, loading, and haul-off. Thicker slabs, reinforced concrete (with rebar), and concrete in confined spaces will cost more. LP provides itemized per-square-foot pricing in written estimates after reviewing the site.
How far in advance should I schedule demolition with LP?
Permit processing time is the primary scheduling driver. Kootenai County and City permits can take 1–3 weeks to issue. LP recommends contacting us 3–4 weeks before your desired demolition date so we can begin permit applications promptly. During the busy spring and summer season, LP equipment schedules fill 2–3 weeks out. Early planning is the best way to keep your project timeline intact.
