DECK REMOVALS & DEMOLITION
Frequently Asked Questions
Can you remove and dispose of concrete deck footings or piles?
Yes, we don’t just remove the visible deck boards – we also remove the posts, beams, and even those heavy concrete footings or piles. That way, the area is cleared right down to the ground and leveled out, so you don’t have to deal with leftover supports messing up your next project.
Will the demolition damage my lawn, garden, or nearby landscaping?
Protecting your property is part of the job. Before demolition begins, we assess vulnerable areas like gardens, patios, or sod. We use protective mats and careful removal methods to minimize any impact on your lawn or landscaping.
What’s the typical turnaround time from booking to completion?
For most residential deck demolitions, we can schedule the project within 1–2 weeks of your free estimate. The actual demolition and cleanup usually take 1–2 days, depending on the deck size and complexity. Commercial projects or multi-tier decks may take slightly longer.
Do I need a permit for deck removal and demolition in Ottawa?
Yes, in most cases, a permit is required. Here’s what you need to know:
- General Rule: The Ontario Building Code mandates a permit for any construction or demolition work, including deck demolition.
- Demolition Permit: If your project involves removing parts of an existing structure, you’ll likely need a demolition permit.
- Exceptions: Non-load-bearing partitions and certain buildings (such as silos and barns) may not require a permit.
- Purpose of the Permit: Ensures safety and compliance with local regulations.
- Penalties for Non-Compliance: Starting demolition without a permit can lead to fines, stop-work orders, and legal consequences.
- Demolition Control By-law: Ottawa’s Demolition Control By-law (By-law No. 2012-377) may apply to specific properties.
- Heritage Properties: If your property is designated under the Ontario Heritage Act or located in a heritage district, additional heritage approvals may be needed.
- How to Obtain a Permit: Visit the City of Ottawa website for detailed requirements and application instructions.
How much does deck demolition cost per square foot?
Costs vary based on project size, complexity, materials involved, and location. Here’s a general estimate:
- Smaller projects: Around $500 to $3,000.
- Larger projects: Costs can range from $5,000 up to $15,000 or more.

Do you offer partial deck removal if I only want certain sections gone?
Yes, if part of your deck is still in good condition and you’d like to keep it, we can remove only the damaged or unwanted sections while leaving the rest intact. We’ll also make sure the remaining structure is safe and stable.
