Selective Demolition in EdmontonTake This Out.
Leave That Standing.
Structure-sensitive removal at scale — with load paths, live services and the finishes that stay protected throughout.
The Scope
Selective Demolition
Selective demolition is judged entirely on what is still standing afterwards. It is slower than a strip-out, it needs a crew that can read a drawing and stop at the right line, and it is priced differently — because the risk sits in what you are not allowed to touch.
Who this is for: General contractors on renovations, engineers and architects specifying partial removals, institutional facilities teams, and owners altering a building that has to stay in service.
What's Included
What We Actually Do
Structural openings
New openings cut in existing walls and slabs, sequenced with the temporary support your engineer specifies.
Partial removals
One wing, one floor or one elevation taken out while the rest of the building stays in use.
Live service isolation
Working around services that stay energised, with isolation confirmed before anything is cut.
Heritage-adjacent work
Careful removal in older buildings where what stays carries a designation or simply cannot be replaced.
Protection of finishes
The finishes that stay are protected first, and the boundary is agreed in writing at the walkthrough.
Clean, documented handover
Debris hauled, disposal in the number, and the surviving structure handed back in the state it was promised.

Selective Demolition FAQ
Do you work to an engineer's drawings?
Yes. On structural work the sequence and any temporary support come from your engineer, and we build the schedule around their holds.
Is selective work priced differently to a strip-out?
Yes. It is slower and the risk sits in what stays, so it is scoped and priced separately rather than folded into a strip-out rate.
Can you work in a designated heritage building?
We do the interior work. What may be altered is determined by the municipality, and that determination comes before we quote.
