Middlesex County
Demolition in Medford
Medford is largely built out with pre-war and postwar housing on lots that are tight but usually reachable, which makes residential teardowns here more straightforward than the same job two miles closer to the city. The commercial frontage along the main corridors turns over regularly, bringing interior strip-out and floor removal ahead of new tenants.
Common in Middlesex County
Middlesex County holds the widest range of work in the region. Cambridge and Somerville bring lab, institutional and converted industrial buildings where the demolition is precise, heavily coordinated and usually happening around people still working in the building. Further out through Medford, Malden and the Route 128 towns the stock shifts to postwar commercial frontage and residential lots, where a machine can often reach and the job runs more conventionally. The two ends of the county want genuinely different methods.
- Lab, institutional and office strip-outs with live services running through the work
- Selective structural removal in converted mill and industrial buildings
- Slab cutting and coring for new mechanical and plumbing runs
- Residential teardowns on tight suburban lots
- Floor and coating removal in industrial and commercial space

Questions
Working in Medford
Do you cover Medford?
Yes. Medford is inside Allied's regular service area in Middlesex County, along with Somerville, Malden, Arlington. The 24-hour line is (857) 266-3238.
How quickly can someone look at a property in Medford?
Call the line and describe the job. Demolition is quoted after the site has been assessed, so the next step is arranging someone to look at it — photographs of the structure and of how a machine would reach it speed that up considerably.
Do I need a permit to demolish a structure in Medford?
Almost always, and permits are handled as part of the job. What is needed early is the property address and the owner's details, since the application is built from those. Requirements are set by the Middlesex County authority or the municipality, depending on where the property sits.
