Frequently Asked Questions
What does it usually cost to tear down a house?
The cost depends on the size of the house, what it’s made of, and how far we need to travel. In Northern Ontario, distance and disposal fees can change the price a bit. We always do a quick site check and give a straight, honest quote so you know exactly what you’re paying for. No surprise bills, no city-style markup.
How long does it take to take down a whole house?
Most houses can be taken down in a day or two, but it depends on the size, weather, and how easy the property is to access. Here in Northern Ontario, snow, tight driveways, or rough terrain can slow things down a little. Once everything is cleared and utilities are shut off, our crew works fast and safely to finish the job.
Do I need a permit to take down my house?
Yes, every town or city in Northern Ontario requires a demolition permit. It makes sure utilities are disconnected properly and the work follows local rules. If you’re not sure where to start, we can point you in the right direction or help you with the steps so you don’t run into delays.
Is it safe to do a demolition myself or should I hire a pro?
Taking down a house isn’t a regular DIY job. You need the right equipment, safety training, and a plan for hauling away all the debris. In Northern Ontario, long distances and tough terrain make it even trickier. A professional crew knows how to handle everything safely, quickly, and by the book. It usually ends up saving time and money in the long run.
What needs to be done if the house has asbestos?
If your house is older, there’s a good chance it has some asbestos. Before demolition, a certified inspector needs to test for it. If asbestos is found, we bring in licensed pros to remove it safely. Ontario has strict rules for this, and we make sure everything is done properly so the demolition can move forward without issues.
How should I get my place ready for demolition?
You’ll need to clear out your belongings, get utilities shut off, and make sure your permit is approved. In Northern Ontario, we also pay attention to weather and access roads. Don’t worry — we walk you through everything so you’re fully prepared before the crew shows up.
Do you take out the foundation too when you remove a house?
Most of the time, yes. We break up and remove the foundation unless you’re planning to reuse it. Northern Ontario soil and frost conditions often mean it’s best to take it out completely. We handle all the concrete disposal and leave the ground level and clean.
How do you keep dust and debris under control while working?
We use water to keep the dust down, and we load debris immediately so it doesn’t blow around or create a mess. Whether your property is near trees, neighbours, or a lake, we make sure the site stays clean and safe. Good cleanup is a big part of demolition, especially in Northern Ontario.
