Planning a Project in Ville-Marie?
Don’t juggle three different companies. We handle the demolition, the renovation, and the landscaping under one roof — and we partner cleanly with your general contractor when a larger build calls for it.
Serving Every Part of Ville-Marie
Ville-Marie is the heart of the city, and its building stock ranges from glass condo towers to centuries-old stone. We match the work to the setting.
- Downtown & the Quartier des Spectacles: condo towers and commercial spaces — interior demolition and fit-outs in concrete high-rises.
- Old Montréal (Vieux-Montréal): heritage stone buildings and converted-warehouse lofts — careful, selective demolition with heritage in mind.
- Golden Square Mile: heritage greystones near the mountain — selective interior work that protects historic detail.
- Centre-Sud & the Village: older plexes and walk-ups — gut-jobs and unit modernization.
Phase 1: Demolition That Respects Your Property
Ville-Marie work is high-density work — concrete condos with building-management rules and shared elevators, heritage stone in Old Montréal, and attached plexes in Centre-Sud. Our crews handle interior gut-jobs and selective demolition with tight dust, noise, and access control, and we coordinate with building management so the rest of the building keeps running.
- Interior Demolition: safe removal of walls, flooring, and cabinetry in condos, lofts, and plexes, including load-bearing assessments.
- Structure Removal: rear-extension and accessory-structure demolition.
- Concrete Removal: slab, terrace, and old footing tear-outs.
We handle proper disposal of all materials — wood, masonry, metal — at authorized Montréal recycling facilities. See our full demolition services →
Phase 2: Renovations That Fit How You Live
Ville-Marie renovations range from reconfiguring a downtown condo to customizing a raw loft or modernizing an older Centre-Sud plex — opening layouts, updating kitchens and bathrooms, and making tight urban space work harder.
- Condo & Loft Reconfiguration: opening and updating interiors in concrete buildings.
- Kitchen & Bathroom Remodels: updated fixtures and efficient layouts in compact footprints.
- Plex Modernization: bringing older units up to date.

Phase 3: Outdoor Spaces for Ville-Marie Properties
Outdoor space downtown is compact and shared — courtyards, terraces, and small yards behind plexes. We build outdoor spaces that fit the borough, with proper drainage to protect older foundations.
- Grading & Drainage: managing water on tight urban lots.
- Hardscaping: courtyard pavers, terraces, and concrete steps.
- Privacy: cedar fences and green screens for close-set buildings.

Permits in Ville-Marie
Ville-Marie is a borough of the City of Montréal, so demolition and structural renovation permits go through the city. Parts of the borough — Old Montréal in particular — carry heritage protections, so exterior and historic-fabric changes face extra scrutiny. And in pre-1980 buildings, asbestos is common and has to be handled properly. We manage the paperwork and the safety side so your project stays compliant. You can start with the City of Montréal’s guide to getting a demolition permit.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a permit to demolish part of my Ville-Marie property?
In most cases, yes. Interior demolition that affects structure, and any exterior demolition, typically requires a permit through the City of Montréal’s Ville-Marie borough — and heritage areas like Old Montréal face extra review. We handle the application as part of the job.
Can you do interior demolition in an occupied condo building?
Yes — it’s a lot of what we do downtown. We coordinate with building management, protect common areas and elevators, contain dust, and control noise so the rest of the building keeps running while we work in your unit.
My Ville-Marie building was built before 1980 — should I worry about asbestos?
It’s worth checking. Asbestos was common in pre-1980 buildings, in insulation, flooring, and plaster and drywall compound. DemoPrep is certified and trained for all levels of asbestos removal, from minor non-friable work to high-risk friable abatement. We test before any demolition, and when removal is needed our crews work inside HEPA-filtered (99.97%) containment using MSA Advantage 3200 full-face respirators with P100 Flexi-Filters, following CNESST requirements. It’s not something to disturb without knowing.
Do you handle demolition, renovation, and landscaping together?
Yes. That’s the point of working with us — one team for the demo, the rebuild, and the outdoor work, instead of coordinating three separate contractors yourself.
