18 Florida-licensed demolition subcontractors serve Tampa Bay (Hillsborough, Pinellas, Pasco & Hernando Counties). Browse listings below, or create a free* GC account to see phone and email and invite a sub to bid on your RFQ.
Most of these demolition subcontractors are based in St. Petersburg (3), Clearwater (2), Largo (2), Spring Hill (2), Tampa (2), and Bonita Springs (1) — plus 6 more across the metro.
Demolition subcontractors take a site or a structure down to the point the next trade can start — selective interior demo for renovations and tenant build-outs, structural demolition of whole buildings, slab and foundation removal, salvage and recycling, and the dust, noise, and debris-removal logistics that go with the work. On commercial jobs they price from the demo plan and the structural drawings, sequence around occupied space, and coordinate hazardous-material abatement with the specialty contractors licensed to perform it.

A demolition RFQ usually points at the demo plan, the existing-conditions drawings, and any hazardous-materials survey, with a clear scope: what comes down, what stays, what gets salvaged, and what gets hauled. For bid prep a GC typically wants the quote broken out by area or scope item so bids compare cleanly, confirmation the sub priced to the survey, and a note on exclusions like asbestos and lead abatement, utility disconnections, and dump fees. Site-visit-required jobs — common for demolition, since access and adjacencies drive the price — will say so up front.
Demolition is a state-licensed trade in Florida, regulated by the Construction Industry Licensing Board (CILB) under the DBPR as a specialty contractor classification. Like other CILB trades the license comes in two tiers — certified, which authorizes statewide work, and registered, which is limited to the local jurisdiction that issued the competency card. Hazardous-material abatement (asbestos, lead) is regulated separately at the state and federal level rather than under the CILB demolition classification, so GCs typically scope abatement to a specialty contractor licensed for that work. Confirming a sub's active CILB demolition license is basic bid-prep diligence.
Yes. Demolition is a CILB specialty contractor classification under the DBPR. Certified licenses authorize statewide work; registered licenses are limited to the local jurisdiction that issued the competency card.
No. Hazardous-material abatement is regulated separately and performed by specialty abatement contractors. A demolition sub typically coordinates with the abatement contractor but does not carry that scope under their CILB demolition license.
The demo plan and existing-conditions drawings, any hazardous-materials survey, the scope of what comes down versus what stays, salvage and haul expectations, exclusions for abatement and utility disconnections, the bid deadline, and whether a site visit is required.
Yes. GCs post an RFQ and invite matched subs by trade and service area; invited subs are notified and can submit a bid for your bid prep.
Listings are seeded from public Florida DBPR license data, and a sub can claim its listing and upload a credential for a one-time review. The badge reflects what was reviewed: a verified state license earns License Verified — the usual path for a demolition sub — a verified certificate of insurance earns Insurance Verified, and a sub with both reviewed shows the Verified Pro umbrella.
