How to prepare your home for interior demolition

Good preparation reduces delays and helps protect the parts of the home that are staying. Before the crew arrives, confirm the removal scope, clear personal belongings and make sure utilities and access have been addressed.

01

Mark the demolition limits

Review the drawings and walk through the work area with the contractor. Identify appliances, doors, trim, flooring and fixtures that will be reused or remain. Clear marking helps prevent accidental removal.

02

Prepare the route

Remove furniture, artwork and personal items from the work zone and debris path. Provide clear access for the crew and disposal vehicle. Discuss parking, elevator bookings or neighbourhood restrictions before the start date.

03

Confirm services are safe

Plumbing, electrical, gas and HVAC systems may need to be isolated by the appropriate licensed trade before demolition reaches them. Confirm responsibilities in advance and keep children and pets away from the work area.
