Demolition Services in Kelowna & the Central Okanagan

At TNT Services Kelowna, we provide safe, efficient, and code-compliant demolition for homeowners, strata managers, builders, and businesses across the Okanagan. With over 14 years of hands-on experience, our family-run team understands local soils, slopes, frost depth, and municipal expectations—knowledge that helps keep your project on schedule and on budget. We handle residential teardowns, commercial dismantling, and precise interior/selective demolition while prioritizing utility locates, erosion and sediment control, dust management, and responsible waste handling. When abatement is required, we coordinate with a trusted remediation partner so demolition and remediation proceed as one, streamlined plan.

What We Demolish

Residential Demolition

Preparing for a custom build or removing an aging structure? We manage the full process—from permits and utility disconnects to debris sorting and recycling. Selective removals (garages, sheds, decks, additions) or full teardowns are executed with protection plans for neighbouring properties, trees, and active utilities. Afterward, we can transition straight into excavation & site prep to reduce delays and extra mobilizations.

Commercial Demolition

For commercial and light-industrial sites, we schedule work windows to minimize disruption to tenants, customers, and traffic. Excavators equipped with breakers, grapples, and shears dismantle structures efficiently while segregating concrete, steel, and clean wood for recycling. Our in-house trucking & hauling fleet keeps bins and trailers rotating so the plan never stalls, and stakeholders always know the next step.

Interior / Selective Demolition

Renovating a home, restaurant, office, or retail space? Our interior crews perform targeted removals of walls, ceilings, flooring, fixtures, and millwork with dust control, containment, and clear access paths for other trades. We coordinate with engineers and designers to protect structural elements and active services while preparing the space for framing, mechanical upgrades, and finishes.

Our Process: Clear Steps, No Surprises

  1. Consultation & Estimate: We review drawings or walk the site to verify access, utilities, constraints, and timelines. You receive a transparent scope and pricing where possible.
  2. Permits & Locates: We help coordinate permits, utility disconnects, and BC One Call locates. Safety and compliance guide the schedule from day one.
  3. Abatement Coordination: If hazardous materials are present, our partnered provider handles remediation so the site is cleared for demolition without delay.
  4. Deconstruction & Salvage: Reusable components are salvaged where practical. Sorting begins early to maximize recycling and reduce landfill costs.
  5. Demolition & Hauling: Machines and operators suited to your site execute the plan. Our trucking fleet manages export and recycling runs efficiently.
  6. Final Grading & Next Trades: We rough-grade and prep the site for excavation, utilities, or landscaping. Need a winter plan? Book snow services to keep access open.

Responsible Disposal & Recycling

Environmental stewardship and cost control go hand-in-hand. Concrete and asphalt are crushed for reuse; metals are recycled; clean wood is diverted whenever possible. Source separation reduces tipping fees and supports municipal reporting. You receive documentation that helps satisfy permit conditions and sustainability goals.

Equipment & Capabilities

We deploy excavators, skid steers, compactors, breakers, and saws matched to the scope and access of your site. Tight lanes, slopes, or sensitive surfaces? We plan appropriate mats, machine sizing, and haul routes. Our operators are experienced in selective dismantling, slab and footing removal, and debris management that keeps work areas safe and organized for inspectors and trades.

Demolition FAQs

How long does a typical residential demolition take?

Most single-family teardowns are completed in a few days once permits, utility locates, and any abatement are cleared. Timelines vary with access, utility disconnects, and recycling requirements.

Can TNT handle concrete removal and backfill?

Yes. We break and remove slabs, footings, and driveways, then backfill and rough-grade. If you’re proceeding to new construction, we coordinate excavation and aggregate deliveries so the next trade can start immediately.

Do you offer winter services?

Absolutely. Our snow removal team keeps job sites and access lanes clear during freeze-thaw cycles, improving safety and helping inspectors and trades reach the site.
