Frequently Asked Questions — Interior Demolition in Scarborough
Do you do bungalow gut renovations in Birch Cliff and Cliffside?
Yes — full main-floor opens, basement gut-and-finish, and second-storey additions often start with our demolition phase. Birch Cliff and Cliffside post-war bungalows commonly need: load-bearing wall removal (with engineer-approved beams), lath-and-plaster strip-out, and asbestos testing on pre-1985 homes.
Can you handle demolition in older Guildwood and Highland Creek homes?
Yes. Guildwood and Highland Creek have a mix of mid-century brick bungalows and 70s/80s splits — typical demo includes kitchen, bathrooms, and basement re-development. Older homes need asbestos testing on vermiculite insulation, vinyl tile, and popcorn ceilings before demo.
Do you do commercial strip-outs along Kingston Road?
Yes. The Kingston Road retail and small-commercial corridor sees frequent tenant turnover — we strip restaurants, retail, and office units back to base building. Includes ceiling grid, demising walls, washrooms, flooring, electrical disconnects, and plumbing capping.
How do you handle dust and debris in dense Scarborough neighbourhoods?
Floor protection through hallways, plastic isolation walls around the demo zone, HEPA air scrubbers, and end-of-day clean-up. For dense streets we book debris bin placement with the City of Toronto for permit-required parking-lane usage and minimize disruption to neighbours.
Do Scarborough demolition projects need City of Toronto permits?
Yes for most structural changes. The City of Toronto requires building permits for load-bearing wall removal, electrical relocation, plumbing changes, and any work affecting fire separations in semi-detached or attached homes. We apply for permits, schedule inspections, and provide demo plans.
