Frequently Asked Questions

How do you ensure safety during a demolition project?

Safety is our top priority in every demolition project. Our team follows strict industry standards and best practices to ensure that every job is carried out securely. Here’s how we maintain a safe work environment:

  • Comprehensive Site Assessment – Before starting, we evaluate the site to identify potential hazards and create a safety plan.
  • Permit & Regulation Compliance – We obtain the necessary permits and follow local building codes to ensure legal compliance.
  • Use of Protective Gear & Equipment – Our contractors wear protective gear and use advanced demolition tools to minimize risks.
  • Controlled Demolition Methods – We use strategic dismantling techniques to prevent structural collapse and debris hazards.
  • Waste Management & Cleanup – All debris is properly contained and disposed of to keep the site hazard-free.

Our licensed demolition professionals are trained in OSHA safety standards and work with engineers when necessary to ensure structural integrity before and after demolition.

Yes, in most cases, a permit is required for demolition projects in Ottawa. The requirements vary based on the size and type of structure being demolished. Here’s what you need to know:

  • Full Structure Demolitions (Houses, Garages, Commercial Buildings) – Require municipal permits to ensure safe removal and proper disposal of materials.
  • Interior & Selective Demolition – May not require a permit unless structural changes are involved (e.g., removing load-bearing walls).
  • Heritage or Historic Buildings – Some properties have special restrictions and may need approval from heritage preservation authorities.

At Almar Demolition Ottawa, we assist with permit applications and ensure all regulatory requirements are met before beginning work. If you’re unsure whether you need a permit, contact us, and we’ll help guide you through the process.

The duration of a demolition project depends on several factors, including the size of the structure, the complexity of the job, and site conditions. Here’s a general breakdown:

  • Small Interior Demolition (e.g., Kitchen, Bathroom, Flooring Removal) – Typically takes 1-3 days.
  • Partial Demolition (e.g., Load-Bearing Wall, Chimney, Deck Removal) – Can take 3-5 days, depending on structural requirements.
  • Complete House Demolition – Usually completed in 5-7 days, including cleanup and debris removal.
  • Commercial Demolition – Larger projects may take several weeks, especially if hazardous materials (e.g., asbestos) require special handling.

We always provide an estimated timeline during our initial consultation and work efficiently to complete your demolition on schedule while maintaining safety and quality.

At Almar Demolition Ottawa, we follow environmentally responsible waste management practices to ensure all debris is disposed of safely and legally. Here’s how we handle post-demolition cleanup:

  • Sorting & Recycling – We separate materials such as concrete, wood, metal, and bricks to maximize recycling and reduce landfill waste.
  • Hazardous Material Disposal – If we encounter asbestos, lead, or other hazardous materials, we arrange for proper removal following government regulations.
  • Debris Hauling & Site Cleanup – Our team removes and transports all debris using our fleet of disposal trucks, ensuring the site is left clean and ready for the next phase of your project.

By choosing Almar Demolition Ottawa, you can trust that your demolition waste is handled ethically, efficiently, and in full compliance with environmental laws.

The cost of a demolition project depends on various factors, including the type of demolition, the size of the structure, labor requirements, and waste disposal needs. Here’s what influences the pricing:

  • Type of Demolition – Interior demolitions (e.g., kitchen, flooring, or wall removal) are generally less expensive than full structural demolitions.
  • Size & Complexity – Larger structures, such as commercial buildings, require more labor, equipment, and time, increasing the overall cost.
  • Structural Considerations – If load-bearing walls, reinforced concrete, or hazardous materials are involved, the cost may rise due to additional safety measures and specialized techniques.
  • Permit & Regulation Fees – Depending on local requirements, permit costs and regulatory compliance may add to the final budget.
  • Debris Disposal & Recycling – Waste removal fees vary based on the amount of material and whether recycling options are available.

At Almar Demolition Ottawa, we offer free, detailed estimates based on a site assessment. We provide transparent pricing with no hidden fees, ensuring you understand the full scope of your demolition project before work begins. Contact us today to get a customized quote for your demolition needs.
