Blue Bell Drywall Removal
Professional Drywall & Plaster Demolition Services
Drywall and plaster removal is one of the most common demolition services in Blue Bell, whether you're opening up walls for an open-concept design, repairing water damage, or preparing for a complete renovation. APES Demolitions specializes in dust-controlled drywall removal throughout Blue Bell, Whitpain Township, and the surrounding Montgomery County areas.
Blue Bell's housing stock includes both newer homes with drywall and older properties with plaster and lath construction. Our team has experience with both materials and uses the appropriate techniques to remove walls efficiently while controlling dust and protecting your property.
Recent Blue Bell Project
Complete drywall removal in a Blue Bell property, ready for renovation
This Blue Bell homeowner wanted to create an open-concept living space by removing walls between the kitchen and dining room. We removed all drywall down to the studs, exposing the framing so the contractor could properly assess which walls were load-bearing and plan the structural modifications.
Using plastic barriers and negative air pressure, we contained dust to the work area. The project was completed in two days, including debris removal and cleanup. The homeowner was able to stay in the home during the work with minimal disruption to other areas.
Drywall Removal Best Practices
Dust Containment is Critical
Drywall demolition creates fine dust that spreads easily throughout your home. Professional contractors use plastic barriers, negative air machines, and proper sealing to contain dust to the work area. This is especially important in occupied homes.
Check for Electrical and Plumbing
Before removing walls, identify electrical wiring, plumbing pipes, and HVAC ducts. Cutting into walls without checking can damage systems and create safety hazards. Professional demolition includes careful inspection and protection of these systems.
Plaster Requires Different Techniques
Older Blue Bell homes often have plaster and lath walls. Plaster is harder and heavier than drywall, requiring different removal techniques. The lath (wood strips behind plaster) must be carefully removed to avoid damaging studs.
Plan for Debris Volume
Drywall and plaster create significant debris volume. A single room can fill a 15-yard dumpster. Professional contractors include debris removal in their service, hauling materials away as work progresses to keep the site manageable.
