The building stock of Rosemont-La Petite-Patrie and what it changes on site

Rosemont and La Petite-Patrie make up one of the densest sectors on the island, and that density dictates the whole working method. The stock is dominated by the brick plex, duplexes and triplexes built between 1910 and 1950, on narrow lots, often attached on both sides, served by back alleys. An excavator does not always fit, and when it does it comes through the alley with an occupancy permit. A good share of the work is therefore done by hand or with small machinery, and shoring party walls becomes the central issue rather than a detail.

Dominant building stock Brick plexes from 1910 to 1950, exterior staircases, narrow attached lots, and some converted former industrial buildings.

Demolition in Rosemont-La Petite-Patrie

Three ground realities in Rosemont-La Petite-Patrie

Party walls almost everywhere

Every partial demolition requires shoring and careful cutting so the neighbour is not weakened. It is slow work, but it is the only safe method.

Access through the alley

Haulage often goes out the back, with smaller bins and more frequent rotation. A public right of way permit is frequently required.

Pre war construction

Plaster, lath, tile adhesives and old renders. Asbestos assessment is systematically recommended on this stock.

FAQ

What people ask us in Rosemont-La Petite-Patrie.

Yes, and it is the most common situation in Rosemont. The party wall is kept and shored before work starts, cutting is done as close as possible without transmitting vibration, and the neighbour's wall is made weathertight at the end. It takes more time than an isolated demolition, and the quote reflects that.

It depends on the width and on borough requirements. Where access is too narrow we work with a mini excavator or by hand, with haulage in smaller bins. We settle that question at the site visit, before pricing, because it changes the cost.

No. Travel is included in the quote everywhere in Greater Montréal. The price depends on the nature of the job and access constraints, never on distance.
