Demolition Services Halifax Dartmouth
Demolition Services for Residential, Commercial & Municipal
We provide demolitions services in Halifax, Darmouth and surrounding areas. Including Interior, Full Structure, and more.
At Starfish Demolition, we provide comprehensive, end-to-end demolition services across Dartmouth, Halifax, and the wider Nova Scotia region. We understand that every structure presents unique challenges, whether it is a tight urban worksite in downtown Halifax requiring surgical precision or a large-scale commercial teardown in an industrial park. Our team is COR-certified and fully insured, bringing years of operational experience to ensure your project is completed safely, on schedule, and in strict compliance with all local environmental regulations and municipal bylaws.
We specialize in managing the entire lifecycle of a demolition project, acting as your single point of contact for site preparation. This process begins with a thorough initial site assessment and navigating the complex permitting process, continues through the safe disconnection of utilities and hazardous material abatement, and concludes with final debris removal and site grading. By combining advanced heavy machinery with meticulous logistical planning, we actively minimize disruption to neighboring properties, pedestrian traffic, and local business operations. This attention to detail makes us the preferred demolition contractor for complex, high-stakes projects throughout the Halifax Regional Municipality.
