Working in Eustis
Lake town houses and rural parcels
Eustis sits on the chain of lakes, with downtown streets, neighborhoods like Lake Joanna, Bates Avenue and Pine Meadows, and rural parcels around the edges. The Census median build year is 1986, so many homes here are approaching 40 years old or more. That age shows up in the work we do: pools nobody uses anymore, driveways cracked by roots and settling, and excavation for drainage problems or room additions. On the rural parcels, wells and septic tanks are common, and they change how a demolition or a dig is planned. We cover Eustis on our regular Lake County route out of Apopka, so getting machines here is routine.
Eustis permits, utilities, trees and disposal
The City of Eustis Building Department is at 111 E. Orange Ave, 352-483-5462. A demolition permit needs sign-offs from every utility on the lot, including electric, phone, gas, water and sewer, plus the Health Department where there is a well or septic system. Asbestos is handled under Florida Statute 469 with a Florida DEP notice. Protected trees come out only for set reasons, like a hazard, poor health, being within 15 feet of a lived-in home, or blocking reasonable use of the lot, and replacements must be at least 2 inches thick and 10 feet tall. Demolition debris goes to the Lake County facility in Tavares.

“We hired Mintel Land Management to demo a house and the job was completed on time and everything was done correctly, inspectors were glad to have a good contractor on the job.”
“I have used this company over a dozen times with the removal of trees and stumps in my yard. The owner has become more of a friend then just a demolition company.”
“Reliable and dependable. Straightforward pricing does great work. Will definitely use again.”
“We contacted Kyle in hopes that he would be able to remove a very large pine stump from our back yard and grade the area after removal. He was above and beyond helpful and even cleared the vacant property lines on both sides of our property! He was very professional and respectful of our property, he was on time and his prices were very reasonable for the work performed. We will definitely be using his services in the future for our driveway widening project and any other future projects. 6 stars, I highly recommend using Mintel Land Management.”
“Excellent experience from start to finish. Fast, professional, and easy to work with. Would definitely recommend and use again.”
