Where we work · Burlington, Halton Region

Demolition contractor in Burlington

Burlington's tear-down streets are in Roseland, Shoreacres and Aldershot: 1950s and 1960s houses on deep lots that builders replace. The lots are wide enough for a full machine and the neighbourhoods are quiet, which means dust control and a swept street at the end of every day are not optional.

Burlington in detail

Burlington, on the ground.

Above the escarpment and in the newer subdivisions along Dundas, the houses are 1980s to 2000s and the work is inside: basements, kitchens, the odd garage. Burlington also has a stock of 1970s split-levels where a load-bearing wall removal opens the main floor.

The City of Burlington issues building and demolition permits; Halton Region is the upper tier. Properties on or near the escarpment can fall under the Niagara Escarpment Plan and conservation authority rules. [Kam confirms Burlington timing.]

Questions from Burlington

Yes. Deep lots, full excavator, foundation out and the lot graded. The City of Burlington issues the permit and we file it.

Yes, under the engineer's drawings and with temporary shoring. Split-levels have short spans, which usually keeps the beam and the cost manageable.
