What shed & outbuilding removal costs

Published ranges, because almost nobody in this market will give you a number before a site visit. You get a firm figure before anything starts and only pay for work completed.

Small shed $500 to $900

A timber, metal or resin garden shed on a light base. Contents included.

Large shed or outbuilding $900 to $1,800

Bigger structures, block construction, or a building with a floor in it.

Barn, garage or slab included $1,800+

Larger structures, and jobs where the concrete underneath comes out too.

Size and construction
A resin shed and a block garage are different jobs at the same footprint.
What is inside it
Contents are part of the job, but volume is volume and it prices in.
The slab or base
Whether concrete underneath stays, or comes out as a second job.
Access
Whether a truck reaches the structure, or everything is carried down the garden.

These are Crown’s own published shed and outbuilding ranges, split across the tiers people ask in. If the concrete underneath is the main thing you want gone, concrete removal is priced on its own axis and is worth reading first.

The slab underneath is a second job, and it is the bigger one

People ask what it costs to remove a shed. The honest answer is that there are two prices, and which one applies is a decision rather than a fact.

Structure only

The shed goes, the concrete stays

The building comes down and leaves on our trucks, and the pad it stood on is left in place, swept. Cheapest version, and the right one if you are putting something else on the same base, or if the pad is sound and you can live with it.

This is what most quotes silently assume you meant.

Structure and slab

The footprint goes back to ground

The pad is broken out, loaded and weighed off, and you get bare ground. Concrete is priced by weight rather than area, so a thick garage slab can cost more to remove than the garage standing on it did, which is the part worth knowing before you ask for it.

We quote both. Choosing is better than discovering.

What we take down

Crown’s own scope is sheds, barns, garages and small structures, hauled away complete. In practice they are all shapes of the same job.

Old wooden shed before removal

Garden & Storage Sheds

The common one, and usually a half day

Timber, metal and resin sheds of any size, contents included.

Barns & Pole Buildings

Bigger, and usually with a floor under it

Timber barns, pole buildings and agricultural outbuildings.

Detached Garages

Often with a slab that has to be decided on

Single and double detached garages, framed or block.

Carports & Lean-Tos

Frequently attached to something staying

Carports, lean-tos and covered structures against a building.

Open ground where a shed was removed

The Slab Underneath

The version most people actually want

Concrete pads and footings broken out and removed where wanted.

How shed & outbuilding removal works

Four steps, no obligation, and you only pay for work completed.

Free quote from photos

Two or three photos including one that shows the approach, plus the rough footprint. Number back within two hours, guaranteed.

The slab decision

We quote it both ways: structure only, and structure plus the concrete, so you are choosing rather than discovering.

Take-down

The structure comes apart in a controlled order and is loaded as we go, not piled on the lawn.

Swept and walked

Footprint cleared, debris gone, and we walk it with you before we leave.

Very quick from contact to in home to remove some flooring. Once on site they got straight to work and did an outstanding job! Very reasonable price for the work done. Will continue to use them for all future needs.
Sean S. Georgetown, KY
Extremely helpful and nice, was hired for land clearing and site preparation they removed pesky honey suckle. Definitely going to hire them in the future.
Kolton T. Lexington, KY
Very hard workers that cleaned out a whole house that was trashed and filthy. Very polite and considered. Would definitely recommend this company!

The questions we get asked

Answered properly rather than deflected to a phone call.

Not sure it’s this job?

Send two or three photos. If it is really a different service we will say so and point you at the right page. It costs you nothing either way.

Send photos instead
Do I have to empty the shed first?

No, and you should not feel you need to. Contents are part of the job: that is the difference between a demolition company and a crew that turns up and finds a shed full of paint tins. Volume does price in, so tell us roughly how full it is when you send photos, and say if there is anything unusual in there. Crown’s own accepted-items list puts a few categories in an additional-charge bracket, which is much better dealt with in the quote than on the day.

Does the concrete slab come out too?

Only if you want it to, and it is the biggest single fork in this price. Concrete is heavy, it is priced by weight rather than area, and breaking out a garage slab can cost more than removing the garage standing on it. We quote both versions so you can see the difference and decide. If you are putting something else on the same footprint, the answer is usually to take it out; if you are turning it back to lawn, often it is not.

Can you remove a shed with a rotten or unsafe roof?

Yes, and it is worth flagging in the photos rather than leaving as a surprise. A structure that has partly failed comes apart differently: there is no safe order to dismantle something that is already deciding its own order, and that changes the method rather than ruling out the job. Older outbuildings sometimes have cement-sheet roofing, which is a question worth asking before anyone starts; if that is what you have, say so and we will tell you what it means.

What about the fence panels or the neighbor’s side?

Told us in advance, it is a planning question; discovered on the day, it is a problem. Sheds are very often tight against a boundary, which means access from one side only and sometimes agreement from next door. Send a photo that shows the gap between the shed and the fence and we will tell you whether it changes anything.

How long does a shed removal take?

Most garden sheds are a half day, contents included. A barn, a detached garage or anything with concrete coming out is longer, and the concrete rather than the structure is usually what sets the day. You get a time with the price.

Which areas do you serve?

Lexington and the surrounding counties: Lexington, Georgetown, Nicholasville, Richmond, Frankfort, Winchester, Versailles and Paris. The ZIP codes are listed above. Outbuildings are one of the jobs where the further-out counties are genuinely worth it, because the structures out there tend to be bigger.
