Local housing
What we see in Greely
Greely is a village in Osgoode Ward in Ottawa’s rural south end. Most homes sit on lots of roughly half an acre to two acres with private wells and septic systems; a few subdivisions, such as Shadow Ridge, use communal services. Properties at the edge of the village and along the concessions often carry older sheds, garages, drive sheds and hobby barns, and some older farmhouses and early bungalows are being replaced with new homes.
- Septic beds and wells are located at the site visit and kept clear of loaded trucks.
- Wet spring ground can move a date to protect lawns and gravel driveways.
Common jobs
- Hobby barns, drive sheds and detached garages
- Older rural houses replaced with new homes
- Garage and barn slabs and old footings removed
- Outbuilding contents and acreage cleanups

Permits
Paperwork in Greely
The City’s demolition permit page lists barns and silos as building types that do not need a demolition permit; houses, garages and most other buildings do. Rural homes on propane need the tank removed by the supplier before demolition.
Buildings from before 1990 get a hazardous materials survey before demolition. Abatement is referred to licensed specialists, and we start after the clearance letter.
Disposal
Hauled out, properly
Large rural lots have room for a roll-off bin away from the house. It sits on firm ground clear of the septic bed, and the bin company hauls and tips it.
On larger jobs a licensed bin company’s roll-off sits on your property and the bin company handles the tipping. Loads we haul ourselves go to the Tomlinson Waste Recovery Centre in Carp, which sorts mixed construction and demolition debris for recycling.

Asbestos & permits
We don’t touch asbestos. That’s the point.
Some demolition companies will tell you they do it all. We do the demolition, and we make sure the steps before it happen in the right order, by the right people: survey first, licensed abatement, then us.
Read the asbestos and permit FAQ- Built before 1990? Ontario law puts the onus on the owner to identify designated substances before a contract is signed. That means a designated-substances survey.
- Survey finds asbestos? A licensed abatement contractor removes it, and you get a clearance letter.
- Utilities and permit. Gas, hydro, water and sewer disconnected where needed. Enbridge alone takes about 44 days, so it gets requested first.
- Then we demolish. No change orders for surprise asbestos, no stop-work orders, no crew exposed.
