Local housing

What we see in Gloucester

Gloucester was its own city until amalgamation in 2001. Blossom Park’s residential core was built in the early 1950s, Blackburn Hamlet from the late 1960s through the 1970s, and Hunt Club’s planned neighbourhoods from the mid-1970s into the 1980s. Much of that housing predates 1990, so a hazardous materials survey is part of most interior and structure demolition here. Gloucester also takes in retail along Innes and Ogilvie roads, the South Keys area and east-end business parks, where tenant turnovers drive commercial strip-outs.

Gloucester notes
  • Textured ceilings and older floor tile in pre-1990 homes are tested before removal.
  • Commercial debris goes to private licensed facilities: the City’s Trail Road landfill stopped accepting commercial waste on July 1, 2025.

Common jobs

  • Kitchen, bathroom and basement strip-outs in 1970s homes
  • Full guts of Blossom Park bungalows
  • Retail, office and flex-unit strip-outs at lease end
  • Estate and pre-sale cleanouts
  • Garage, shed and deck removal

Permits

Paperwork in Gloucester

Commercial strip-outs follow the building owner’s designated substances report. Houses built before 1990 need a hazardous materials survey first, and any abatement goes to licensed specialists. Commercial waste cannot go to Trail Road (City memo).

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

East- and south-end jobs in Gloucester often use a roll-off bin, which the bin company hauls and tips. Commercial loads go to private licensed facilities, with weigh tickets on request.

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

Gloucester: questions

Phones answered Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm.

Do you cover all of former Gloucester?

Yes, including Blossom Park, Hunt Club, South Keys, Elmvale, Beacon Hill, Blackburn Hamlet and the rural areas inside the City boundary.

Do you work for property managers?

Yes. Property managers and landlords request quotes for unit turnovers, and we coordinate access, hours and base-building protection with them.

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
  1. 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.
  2. Survey finds asbestos? A licensed abatement contractor removes it, and you get a clearance letter.
  3. Utilities and permit. Gas, hydro, water and sewer disconnected where needed. Enbridge alone takes about 44 days, so it gets requested first.
  4. Then we demolish. No change orders for surprise asbestos, no stop-work orders, no crew exposed.
