What Our Demolition Services Service Includes
Every demolition services project is unique — here's the full scope of what we handle for Toronto and GTA properties.

Our Demolition Services Process
Step-by-step breakdown of how our team handles demolition services from initial call to final walkthrough.
Site Assessment
Our project manager inspects the site, reviews structural plans, identifies load-bearing elements, checks for hazardous materials (asbestos, lead paint, mold), and develops a safe demolition plan.
Permits & Planning
We obtain all required demolition permits from the City of Toronto, coordinate utility disconnections, and establish safety protocols including dust containment, noise mitigation, and waste management.
Hazardous Material Removal
If asbestos, lead paint, or mold is present, our certified abatement crew removes these materials first following all Ontario regulations before general demolition begins.
Controlled Demolition
Our experienced crew executes the demolition plan with precision — protecting structural integrity, adjacent spaces, and existing systems (plumbing, electrical, HVAC) that are being retained.
Debris Removal & Cleanup
All demolition debris is sorted for recycling where possible and hauled to licensed disposal facilities. The site is swept, vacuumed, and left clean and ready for the next phase of your project.
Handoff & Documentation
We provide as-built documentation showing exposed conditions, flag any structural concerns discovered during demolition, and coordinate handoff to your renovation contractor or our own renovation team.
Demolition Services Questions & Answers
Common questions Toronto homeowners ask about our demolition services services.
Q. What types of demolition do you handle?
We specialise in interior strip-outs, selective structural demolition, kitchen and bathroom tear-outs, concrete and masonry removal, and renovation preparation for homes and commercial spaces across the GTA.
Q. Do you handle permits and disposal?
Yes. We coordinate required demolition permits, arrange engineering assessments where structural elements are involved, and handle all debris hauling and disposal so the site is left clean and ready for the next phase.
Q. What if there is asbestos or lead behind the walls?
Older buildings often hide hazardous materials. Because we're also a licensed asbestos abatement firm, we can test, safely remove and dispose of asbestos and lead-painted materials before demolition proceeds — no need to hire a separate contractor. Call 416-988-3539.
Q. How much does interior demolition cost?
Costs vary with square footage, the materials being removed, disposal volume and site access. A single-room strip-out is far less than a full-floor gut. We provide a written, itemised estimate after assessing the space.
Q. Is your demolition work insured?
Yes. We are fully licensed and insured, follow Ontario health-and-safety requirements, and protect adjacent areas with dust containment so the rest of your property stays clean during the work.
Q. How long does a typical interior demolition project take?
A typical interior demolition project, such as gutting a kitchen or basement, takes one to three days for an average GTA home, while larger whole floor or commercial demolitions take longer. Timing depends on square footage, whether hazardous materials need testing first, and how much debris there is to remove.
Q. How do you protect the rest of my home during a partial demolition?
We protect the rest of your home during a partial demolition with plastic containment barriers, floor and stair coverings, and negative air machines to control dust from spreading into occupied rooms. Work zones are sealed off before any tear out begins, and debris is bagged or bin loaded directly rather than carried loose through the rest of the house.
Q. Do I need to be present while demolition work is happening?
You do not need to be present for the entire demolition, but we ask that you or a representative be available at the start to confirm the scope and at key milestones if unexpected conditions come up. Otherwise our crews can complete the tear out and debris removal on a scheduled day without you needing to be on site.
Q. Do you provide demolition services throughout the GTA, not just Toronto?
Yes, Pro Max Restoration provides demolition services throughout the entire GTA, not just Toronto, from our North York head office. This covers interior strip outs, structural demolition tied to restoration projects, and full rebuild coordination in one place. Call 416-988-3539 to confirm scheduling for your specific city or municipality.
Q. Is there a minimum job size for demolition services?
There is a practical minimum for standalone demolition jobs, since dispatch, containment, and disposal setup have a base cost regardless of size, but small tear outs are often bundled into a larger restoration or rebuild project at no separate minimum. We can confirm pricing for your specific job, whether it is a single room or a full property.
