Local housing
What we see in Manotick
The village core around Watson’s Mill has some of the oldest houses in the south end, and many properties outside the core are on private wells and septic systems. Riverfront lots have their own rules: structures close to the water can fall under Rideau Valley Conservation Authority regulations, so check with the RVCA before taking down anything near the shoreline.
- Septic beds and wells are marked before trucks come onto the property.
- Near the river: check RVCA regulations first. We will not start a waterfront demolition without that answer.
Common jobs
- Old garage, shed and boathouse-style outbuilding removal
- Interior guts of older village homes (survey first)

Permits
Paperwork in Manotick
Near the Rideau River, check with the Rideau Valley Conservation Authority before taking down any structure close to the shoreline or floodplain. Rural lots need the same City demolition permit and utility clearances as urban ones.
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
Manotick is our home base. Bins sit on the driveway well clear of the septic bed, and on smaller jobs debris rides back on our trucks the same day.
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.
FAQ
Manotick: questions
Phones answered Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm.
Is Manotick inside your normal service area?
Manotick is our home base, so it is the simplest place for us to schedule a site visit or a job.
Do you work on waterfront properties?
Yes, once any Rideau Valley Conservation Authority approval the work needs is in place. Structures near the shoreline are where that question comes up.
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.
