Exterior Demolition Services in Calgary

Exterior demolition involves removing exterior parts of a property that are no longer needed. This can include decks, patios, garages, fences, and other exterior structures. At Done Fast Demolition, we handle these projects with the right equipment and approach based on the property and scope of work. If you need work done inside the property too, check out our interior demolition and strip-outs service.

Deck & Patio Demolition

An old deck or patio can become damaged, unstable, or no longer fit your plans for the property. We safely remove the existing structure and clear the area for a new deck, landscaping, renovation or other outdoor improvements.

Fence & Exterior Structure Removal

Removing an exterior structure can be more complicated when it is close to a home, garage, landscaping or other property features. We plan the removal carefully to avoid unnecessary damage to the areas you want to keep.

Garage & Building Demolition

When an old garage or exterior building needs to come down, the surrounding property needs to be considered as well. We assess the structure, plan the demolition, use suitable equipment and remove the materials after the structure is down. When a storm leaves a garage unsafe, our emergency demolition team can respond 24/7.

Large-Scale Exterior Demolition

Larger demolition projects require careful planning, proper equipment, and controlled removal. Our team can handle larger exterior structures while considering site access, surrounding property and the safety of everyone around the work area.

Exterior Demolition Challenges We
Plan For on Calgary Properties

Exterior demolition can come with its own set of challenges. The work involved depends on the structure, site conditions, and surrounding property, which is why proper planning is important before demolition begins.
Here are some challenges we consider when planning exterior demolition on Calgary properties.

Limited Site Access & Working Space

Some properties have narrow driveways, tight spaces or limited room to move demolition equipment. We assess the available space and working area to determine how the structure can be removed safely and efficiently.

Protecting Nearby Structures & Landscaping

Decks, patios, garages and fences can sit close to homes, neighbouring buildings, trees or other features that need to stay in place. We consider these surroundings when planning the demolition and choose suitable methods to reduce the risk of unnecessary damage.

Underground Utilities & Hidden Hazards

Exterior demolition may involve underground utility lines, concealed structural components or hazardous materials in older structures. Identifying these potential issues before starting the demolition can help us determine what needs to be addressed before demolition can proceed.

Dust, Debris & Material Removal

Demolition can create dust and leave behind concrete, wood, metal and other materials that need to be handled properly. We use appropriate dust-control measures, manage materials during removal and clear the debris after demolition to leave the site ready for its next stage.

What's Included in Our Exterior Demolition
Services?

A demolition project doesn’t end when the structure comes down. At Done Fast Demolition, we take care of the preparation, material handling, removal and cleanup needed to leave the site in better shape for the next stage.

01

Site Preparation

Before demolition work starts, we look at the structure, access points, surrounding property and potential hazards. This helps us choose suitable equipment and plan how the demolition will be carried out.

02

Material Handling

Different materials may require different handling methods after demolition. We sort materials where practical and separate recyclable materials when possible for more responsible disposal.

03

Dust Suppression

Dust can spread to nearby areas during demolition, especially when working close to an occupied building or neighbouring properties. We use dust-control measures to help keep it contained around the work area.

04

Hazardous Material Abatement

Some older structures may contain materials such as asbestos, lead or other hazardous substances. These materials require proper assessment and handling before demolition to avoid creating additional risks during the project.

05

Debris Removal

Once the structure has been removed, the remaining materials need to be cleared from the property. We remove the demolition waste from the site so you are not left to arrange a separate cleanup after the work is finished.

06

Site Cleanup & Grading

Once the demolition is done and materials are removed, we clean the work area and, when required, grade the site. This helps prepare the property for construction, landscaping, or another planned use.

Safe & Controlled Exterior
Demolition in Calgary

Exterior demolition becomes more complicated when a structure is close to a home, commercial building, vehicle, landscaping or other property features. Poor planning can lead to unnecessary damage, dust or disruption. Our exterior demolition professionals assess these conditions before work begins and use suitable equipment and controlled demolition methods. We also use dust-control measures and follow all the rules and regulations required to keep the work area properly managed.

Our Exterior Demolition Process

Good demolition starts before the first piece of equipment arrives. We follow a planned process to identify potential issues, complete the necessary preparation, and keep the project moving.

01

Site Evaluation

We inspect the structure and surrounding property to understand its condition, access, nearby structures and potential hazards. This gives our team the information needed to plan the demolition properly.

02

Permit Handling

Some exterior demolition projects require permits and approvals, depending on the structure and project. We help with the required demolition permit process and ensure all requirements are met before work begins.

03

Abatement

If any harmful materials like asbestos, lead or other hazardous materials are found on-site, they need to be addressed before demolition begins. Proper abatement helps keep workers, occupants, and the surrounding area safe.

04

Controlled Demolition

Once the site is ready, we use professional demolition equipment suited to the structure and its surroundings. The right machinery and controlled methods allow our crew to remove structures while reducing unnecessary impact on the surrounding property.

05

Material Removal & Sorting

As the structure comes down, materials can be separated with proper handling. We aim to recycle materials where possible rather than sending everything to the landfill.

06

Post-Demolition Cleanup

After the demolition is complete, we clear the remaining materials and clean the work area. Where needed, the site can also be graded to prepare it for construction or landscaping.
