The building stock of Ville-Marie et centre-ville and what it changes on site
Downtown, demolition is above all a logistics exercise. Work happens at height, in occupied towers, with a single service elevator to share, a loading dock booked in advance and working windows set by building management. Night work is the norm rather than the exception. On top of that there is Old Montréal and its heritage buildings, where any intervention requires heavy regulatory preparation. A thousand square metre office floor on the twentieth storey costs far more to empty than an equivalent ground floor unit in the suburbs, and it is entirely a question of removal logistics.
Dominant building stock Office towers, commercial buildings, hotels, high rise condos and heritage buildings in Old Montréal.
Three ground realities in Ville-Marie et centre-ville
Night work as the norm
Office buildings almost always impose out of hours windows. Our crews work evenings, nights and weekends.
Removal logistics set the price
One service elevator, a shared dock, limited slots. That determines the cost far more than floor area.
A demanding heritage context
In Old Montréal, authorisations take longer and methods are more constrained. Regulatory preparation is part of the schedule.

Who issues the demolition authorisation
The demolition authorisation certificate application is filed with the borough of Ville-Marie. We prepare the file, submit it and follow the application through to issue. We also coordinate service disconnection with the utilities before work starts.
What people ask us in Ville-Marie et centre-ville.
It depends first on the floor level and removal route, then on the density of installations, and only after that on floor area. Two identical floors in two different towers can be priced very differently if one has a dedicated freight elevator and the other a single shared lift. We price after a site visit, never blind by the square foot.
Yes, that is the case on most of our downtown projects. We install sealed containment, put the zone under negative pressure with filtration, protect corridors and the elevator, and haul outside peak hours.
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.
Yes, always, with no obligation. Our estimator comes out, assesses the site in person and gives you a detailed firm price quote within 24 to 48 hours.
