demolition

Torn down and gone in the same visit

The shed has been leaning for three years. The deck boards are soft in two places. The fence came down in the last windstorm and half of it is still standing out of habit.

We tear it down and take it away in one visit — one contractor, one invoice, no gap where a pile of broken lumber sits in your yard waiting for a second company to come and collect it.

What we do

  • Sheds, decks, fences, pergolas, playstructures and detached garages
  • Concrete pads, deck footings and post bases out with the skid steer
  • Fence posts pulled with the concrete plug still attached
  • Nails and screws swept — the part people forget until a tire finds one
  • Site left graded and clean

Everything we take in this category

Shed
Torn down and hauled in one visit, with metal sheds going to scrap. If the floor sits on a concrete pad, say so: the pad is priced by weight and belongs in the quote, not in a surprise.Also: Garden shed, Storage shed, Tool shed, Metal shed
Deck
Boards, joists, railings and stairs. Winter is genuinely the gentlest time to take a deck out, because frozen ground does not rut under the weight.Also: Wood deck, Composite deck, Deck boards, Porch, Deck stairs
Deck footings
Come out with the skid steer. They are concrete, so they are priced by weight.Also: Concrete footings, Sonotubes, Piles, Post bases
Fence
Posts come out with the concrete plug still attached. Leaving broken posts in the ground is how the next person to build a fence ends up with a bad day.Also: Wood fence, Privacy fence, Picket fence, Fence panels
Detached garage
A garage teardown is a structural demolition and usually needs a City of Winnipeg permit, which is on the property owner. The slab comes out separately and is priced by weight.Also: Garage, Carport

Winter is the gentlest time

Frozen ground means less rutting and less lawn damage from the equipment, and cleaner site restoration come spring. It is the one job that is genuinely easier in a Winnipeg January.

Shed and deck removal questions

Do you take the concrete pad or footings too?

We can. Pads, deck footings and post bases all come out with the skid steer. It gets priced by weight because it is concrete, so say so when you book and it goes in the quote instead of becoming a surprise.

Will it wreck my lawn?

Some marking is normal where equipment runs. We came from a landscaping company, so we plan the approach around access and drainage rather than driving straight across the middle of your yard. Frozen ground in winter is genuinely the gentlest time.

Do I need a permit?

For a straightforward shed, deck or fence teardown on residential property, usually not. Detached garages and anything structural can be different — check with the City of Winnipeg first, because that is on the property owner, not the hauler.

What about the fence posts set in concrete?

They come out with the post and concrete plug attached. Leaving broken posts in the ground is how the next person building a fence ends up with a bad day.
