What Calgarians Say About Besa Demolition
Had a great experience with Besa Demolition! Fid and Miri were friendly and professional. They did a great job on our bathroom demo. Would recommend their services to anyone!
Kim Hendy
Home Owner in Templehill, Calgary
I was very happy with Besa Demolition. I had a sunroom, deck, shed, fence, and gravel removal needed. The entire removal was about a week, and it rained heavily a few of those days. The entire crew was friendly and professional. They worked very hard and helped pull and stack retaining wall stones (cinder blocks) for future use. I needed to remove a few tree limbs so they could access the fence, and they even cleaned that up without me asking. They went over the entire job before work was done, and at the end, we went around again to make sure they had done everything that was expected and the site was left clean. I highly recommend this company, and my main contact Ben was amazing. Thank you Besa Demolition for your work!
Michelle Cordingley
Homeowner in Sundance
Working with Besa Demolition on our latest condo development project was a game-changer. We faced a tight deadline to demolish several outdated structures and clear the site for new construction. The Besa team not only completed the job ahead of schedule but also handled all the recycling of materials, which was a huge plus for our green building initiative. Their professionalism and commitment to safety were evident, and their communication throughout the project was top-notch. Besa Demolition is a true asset to the Calgary construction community!

Some of our services may leave a question or two unanswered. If you want to learn more about how we approach each project, this FAQ section may help.
How long does it take to demolish a residential home?
Approximately 5 to 7 days is the currently published planning figure for a house demolition, depending on the size and conditions. Excavation, utilities-related work, hazardous-material requirements, access, and site work can change the schedule and must be confirmed in the quote.
Do you clear the site after demolishing?
Yes. Depending on the building's size and the requested handoff, this may be included in the initial price or quoted separately. Besa directly provides site clearing and grading, and the quote identifies whether the site is demolition-only, cleared, graded, excavated, backfilled, or ready for the next build.
How much notice do you need to book services?
We typically book services 2 to 3 weeks in advance. This gives us time to arrange every step of the plan and gather the right equipment. We usually need a demolition permit, which can add a few additional days to the booking timeline.
Do you uninstall services and utilities before demolishing?
Besa has confirmed that utilities-related work can be delivered directly. The owner or utility provider may still need to coordinate service requirements, and the quote should identify the exact utility work, approvals, timing, and fees before demolition begins.
How much does a house demolition cost?
A house demolition in Calgary can cost between $15,000 and $25,000 for a detached house. A detached garage will incur additional expenses, which we line-item in the quote we prepare for you.
