Careful demolition for Ancaster renovations

Ancaster renovations often involve large homes with high-end finishes that are staying: hardwood floors, staircases, built-ins and stone. Selective demolition there is about precision. We remove only what is on the plan and protect everything around it.

We also gut older homes in Ancaster Village for full renovations and additions, working to your contractor’s schedule.

Protecting what stays

On high-end renovations, the cost of damaging what stays is higher than the demolition itself. We lay floor protection along every path, wrap railings and door frames, and remove finishes like tile and millwork by hand so the surfaces next to them are not cracked or gouged.
